Default Cam or intake for PRC 215s

ive got a sbe ls1 ls6 Intake prc 215 heads and a torquerv2 cam. Basically built with left over parts. I’ve been debating on swapping intakes or the cam since the car made less impressive numbers. 430/398. M6 4.10 geared 4th gen. 4” Exhaust also. Would going up a little on the cam be more beneficial than a fast 92 set up? I just thought the car should have made more as these heads with a fast 102 and a ms4 made 490

Have you first run it at the track to verify that it was more than just a low dyno number?

Pretty big difference between a ms4 cam with a 102 compared to torquer v2 and ls6 intake.

Imo 430 rwp is pretty good for that setup.
My buddy made 425 rwp with v2 and ls6 intake and prc 243's. His car ran really good also.

Why not both?

I would probably do an intake first. Does MSD make a cathedral port unit? They make great power.
