Default Edelbrock 1406 on a 326

Hey guys

I am a Qjet guy at heart but the 67 LeMans I recently purchased has an Edelbrock 600 on it and I feel it is holding it back. The engine idles and responds excellent when in the first two barrels but it does not seem to really accelerate when opened up (it is opening all the way). I have been thru the timing and advance even changing it to ported advance and as I said it runs well. It just does not put you back in the seat much.
The 326 is rebuilt with maybe a small cam upgrade, otherwise stock.
Should I just get a 68-71 intake and build a Qjet or is there something I can do to tune this carb or is 600 cfm enough?
Thanks
