Its kinda hard to read your post, hehe, but if you aren't planning on changing intakes I would because the torker 2 isn't really what you want for that cam and exhaust setup. Intakes have been debated here before, but I'd go with an Edelbrock Air-Gap or Weiand Stealth. 3" exhaust is overkill, you'd probably make as much power or maybe more with 2.5" exhaust.
With 12.5:1 compression you really need to take this Mav to the track and run some race gas in it to see what kind of ETs you can pull off. Its a shame to waste those pistons on pump gas, your timing could be a lot higher at the track. Take it out and see what it'll do.-CP
