Nice numbers! Those small heads/headers really help the bottom end torque. My 393 only made over 450 FWTQ from 4600-7000, peak was 494 at 5500. HP at 5400 was 504 and 567 at 6200 using 2-1/8" headers and much larger heads/valves (Cleveland, not a Windsor). Peak HP occurred much later in my 393, 608 @ 7000. When you get your A/F right, you'll make a LOT more power across the board. You should be around 13.4:1, so waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay rich is an UNDERSTATEMENT! Your engine will be a really hot street engine. That much power at that low of RPM is perfect for getting off of the line at the stop light without having to run a killer lot of converter and sounding like a racecar. I'm running a 5400 stall converter whereas you can run probably a 2800-3200 stall with no problem and still lots of performance. The Windsor is well known for its low RPM performance, which is ideal for a hot street machine that goes to the track every now and then. Get ready to enjoy it! What chassis is it going into?
