13b bridgeport barely any power

I've been having problems with my 85 gsl and getting the power with acceleration. Its got a 650 dp and I've ran through the carb in and out and can't seen to find the problem. Its running 72 primary jets and 80 secondary. I've got msd 6al to the leading with great spark on all for plugs but i can't seem to find the issue. Any help is greatly appreciated.

The timing is fully advanced. When i called racing beat, they told me how they build their Holleys they drill their jets and the high speed air bleeds. I don't agree with the drilling of the jets but to compensate for the drilled high speed air bleeds, i pulled the cap off of my progressive vacuum port to trouble shoot and it seemed to gain more high end power
