my 2 cents worth - get a larger carb , look at your gearing , exhaust . When I built my 440 it had 906 heads with home port/cleanup ( 10.4 comp),825 Mighty Demon , M1 single plane with 1" open spacer , 509 cam , 4200 stall, 3.9 gears and 28" radials . At around the same weight , over 3750lbs , it ran 11.80's
