I have done a few of those big bore 396 cu inchers and I like them, but they were for higher rpm applications.
Still it looks to me that you are cooking good. Maybe you might think about increasing your rpm on the package if it will live and make additional power at the higher rpm. In some combinations the air pump spinning at higher rpm can equal and even overcome the bigger lower rpm air pumps.
Looks like you did good though with it.

I'm not an expert, but I have heard that at higher rpm levels, and a properly put together combination, you can actually acheive better than 100% efficiency with the "air pump". But, with the spec heads, I'm not sure this will be possible. This combo is definately suited for higher rpms, and with a 363 I would be looking to get as much top end as possible. Of course, those heads will be restrictive.
Davebat, again your motor combo sounds just like mine. I ran mine at 7,800 rpm all day, and what a rocket!
