A 500hp BB has torque around 3000-3800 rpms. Would
need traction aids to hook well in a #3000lb car.
A 500hp SB has torque around 4000-4500 rpms. Needs traction aids also, but a bit EASIER to hook
in a #3000lb car, due to it's higher peak, not wider. Wider or broader torque band are great for
slightly heavier cars, but at #3000lbs, so much torque is there down low, tires are overwhelmed and they spin. During the run, things may or DO get "close" midtrack, but to the finish it's usually a "leg" race, with the one who has the higher rev potential winning.

The 248* cam I was using with a 440 BB, peak torque fell around 4500 RPM, peak HP around 5750. It was around 500 to 520 HP.

Im not sure where the torque and HP peaks would fall on a same HP 360 SB

It was hard to hook up at first but with tricks of the trade 1.43,s are effortless now.

Don't know the weight of your car, but there is an abundance of torque starting above 2.5K.
Did the right things to it!! In a 360, torque peak may be a tad higher than the 440 with the same cam
in it. Is the 248* a solid cam?
