No, I suggested going with either a change in manifold OR and change in cam. What you have was not set up to work together.
The issue with your upper end RPM is structural, not power related. Stock rods are OK to about 5500 RPM. Strongly suggest you pick up a copy of Jim Hands book, "How to Build High Performance Pontiac Engines"
