Pat,
Like Lou, you're leaving a lot of low-speed response and a little torque on the table.Especially you with increased displacement.
I don't think that advancing such mild cams makes any difference. They don't have any top-end to shift downward.
Ever try going up on initial in increments? You'd feel a difference. The motor feels sharper, less sleepy. More fun to drive.
Make it your next 'fiddle' project-like the wheels. You can always go back to your numbers if it scares you...
