Looking for more pep off the line

Hey all,
I've got a 73 Duster with a 360 LA and 727 that I rebuilt myself, and I'm looking for suggestions to make more power down low. The engine is bored over 0.040, has KB 107 pistons, 9.6:1 compression ratio, stock crank and rods, Summit K6901 camshaft 218/228 0.441 lift, stock J heads, stock cast iron intake, Holley 600 cfm vacuum secondaries,

Being brutally honest here.

The camshaft sucks. Your LSA should be a 106 with 1.88 intake valves which are stock J heads.
If you have 2.02’s, a 108 will do.
The intake is OK, a Weiand Action Plus or LD-340 is better.
Use a 750 carb.

TCI 141500 converter, 3.23 rear gears, timing set at 12-15 degrees BTC.

I don’t know what stall that’s rated at. Please post the stall rating or flash point of the converter.
3.91-4.10 gears
Bump the initial ignition to 20*’s, limit max advance to 36. 52 total with vacuum hooked up.

My build is meant to be a street machine on a budget, it runs well but it feels a little lacking off the line. Any suggestions for making better power would be much appreciated.
