overcammed 350

Last year I put together a 350 bored .060 over together. Originally I was using ported camaro heads with 76 cc chambers and last year I switched to AFR 195 Eliminators with 65 cc chambers. I used a bigger cam to bleed off some of the extra compression I thought I was going to have. By the way I am using Speedpro forged pistons with 2.4cc dome and the block is zero decked. .039 head gasket. I used a Comp Magnum solid lifter cam installed straight up . http://compcams.com/Cam_Specs/CamDet...?csid=221&sb=0

Now the engine has no low end torque and if you open the throttle too much before it revs up it pops back through the carb (750 dp). Today I did a compression test and found 165-170psi. Should I be switching to a smaller cam or am I missing something? Feel free to educate me. I want to do my homework this time before i buy a new cam. If you need more info I can get it for you.
