The missing 2.5 litres is a bit of a concern!
The amount you put back in is close to the specified 7.9 litres for a 722.0 mated to a V8 engine (specified in maintenance manual)
Just to be sure => Are you checking the level with the engine running at operating temperature etc?

I've never even seen your engine before in real life so all I can do is send you the following links.
Removal and installation of your distributor =>

Timing check =>

If the advance / retard functionality of the engine "management system" isn't working correctly then you would indeed have an under powered engine at higher revs.

But when I removed the blue air flow sensor connections.I could hear the fuele pumps running .
Any thoughts ?
