Default help with my set up 402 stroker

I've got a 01 camaro with a 402 stroker turbo 400 trans only a 3200 converter ford 9" rearend 370 gears. First we'll start out as it's a ls2 block eagle crank eagle rods diamond pistons afr 225 heads fast 90 intake holley 90 TB, 85mm maf 42 lbs svo injectors kooks 1 7/8 headers y pipe with a cutout. It's about 11.5 to 1 compression texas speed 257/266 113 don't remember the exact lift. My problem is it only made 430 to the tires. I would think it should make more than that, I took it to the track and it went 11.40 at 119 with a 1.6 60 foot on motor and I sprayed a 150 shot it only went 10.70 at 125 with a 1.5 60 foot. Both of these were off the foot brake
On nitrous it only picked up 65 horse on the dyno. The car weights 3650 with me in it. It is pretty much full suspension car. It only has a racetronics fuel pump in it and it seems to drop fuel pressure to about 52 psi why am I losing fuel pressure do I need a inline pump to hold pressure? Why is it not making power it should make any suggestions? do I need better exhoust? tune seems good it drives on the street great. a/f is at 12.9 and total timing is 26 and 6 degrees pulled on nitrous.
Any help would be great
Thanks pete
