Cam is a Voodoo 702, 219/227 on a 112 LSA.

I see what you are saying about intake air temp. The 2nd of the 2 logged runs was a tenth slower, and I compared intake air temp at 3k rpm in first gear. 2nd run was 4 degrees warmer.
If you're gaining mph, you're going in the right direction. ET's can very a lot based on traction, but if you're in it through the entire run, the MPH should be pretty consistent. So changes there can tell you if you're going in the right direction.

In regards to power falling off, did it do so before with the carb as well? If so, there's always a possibility that's not tune or fueling related. It could be something like valve float occurring.

I'm assuming this is on your car that has the 350/#62 combo? That cam should be pretty healthy in that setup.
