Default Wut u think bout dis 5.0

Hey, I just rebuilt my car and im pretty dam sad. I have a 92 gt convertible. Yes i kno they are heavy. It has a rebuilt 302(now a 306) with edelbrock performer heads, 1.6roller rockers, e-303 cam, hardened pushrods, sealed power forged pistons, 9.6 to 1 compression, removed smog pupm, shorter belt, 2,400 stall converter, aluminum driveshaft, 3.73 gears, headmen headers, flowmasters, and removed fan clutch switched to electric fan. The car is running alot better than when it was stock i shred the tires in first gear and chirp in second just punching it, but i Know the car can do alot better it kind of bogs out sometimes. I still need to get an edelbrock upper and lower inatake, 75mm mass air, 70 mm throtle body, 24 pound injectors, and get it tuned. I still haven taken it to get tuned since the rebuild.

What do u think the numbers will be after this stage, and will it be a noticeble difference from how its running now? Be honest.
