I hate to say change too many things at once (heads and cam), but since you want to keep the RPM below 7000; I think the 276*/279* dur .670 lift would be a better fit.
More torque to improve the sixty foot time and work with the existing "low" stall converter better.
Still think a high 5k converter is the right thing to have at the end of the day (month, year, etc.). It has been a long time since I raced less than 493 CID, but that sixty foot seems slow for a 2950 lb car with a 3-speed transmission.
Or is it a PG with 1.76/1.80 first gear?
