6-pack on 77 engine

I like to go to the local track and drag when money permits, and i was wondering if putting a 6-pack on my 350 big block would put out any more horses? Currently putting out 280hp w/ 16lbs of boost

Welcome to the board. You can make 400 streetable hp with a single carb with a properly built engine, no boost, so really no need for 3 x 2s. If you engine is only making 280 with that much boost, something is wrong. Is the tune right, parts properly chosen for a blown engine?

There wasn't a "big block" 350 made in 1977. There was a 348 made in the late 50's, and again in the early 60's I believe as a truck motor. I would assume you have a 350 small block. As to the boost, what kind of supercharger are you using?
