I would recommend replacing the straight pipe muffler with a turbo muffler at the very least.  A lot of public lands require some sort of spark arrester to avoid setting everything on fire, wthout a cat your muffler is the only thing in the way.

The reason I mentioned the header is the primary tubes seem really big for the size of engine.
I'm a chevy guy and  i had a 327 in my chevelle with 1 3/4" primary pipes and the motor lost a lot of torque
over the 1 5/8". it wasn't anything a 4000 converter couldn't fix! ; )

thanks for the help!!

Don't forget about the snorkle, your eng. has to be able to breath. You might be loosing power cause the eng. has to pull harder to get a fresh "breath" Try putting a garden hose in your mouth and run around the block!  ;) I would pull the air intake off and drive it, bet your power comes back. Or try and fab a scoop to help compress the air charge. I've never seen a drag car with a snorkle ???
