400 horsepower low compression 360

These posts always end up in the big hp, big cam, aluminum head quarter mile file.
Op is only driving on the street and the car will likely never see anything above 4000 rpm. 4500 rpm is 100 mph with his 3.23 gears.
Say that's true how do make the most power there ? torque of course so peak torque at 4,000-5,000 rpm gonna give the most under 5,000 rpm power plus the most 5,500-6,500 rpm power for the few seconds your there.
He may kiss 4800 briefly in first or second gear. Slam in a comp xe 250 and you will boil the rear tires at will and pin your passengers in their seats 'til well past highway speeds. Should produce 350 plus torque at 2000rpm and 400 at 2800 rpm. I'll bet it would be respectable in the quarter mile too!
I can hear the murmurs...
You may never go above 4,800 rpm, but I do get and agree with what your saying, build it so it works best with how you drive and how you want to play with that power. Everyone is different and wants different things it's up to the OP to figure out what he truly wants.

Drives fine and gets some rpms out of her now and then :)
