Default 557 doesn't rev

good morning,

We stroked a FORD Motorsport 514 to 557. Kept the cam and timing, went to 12:1 CR and ran out of revs (only 5500 instead of 6500).

Do we have to retard the cam more (amongst other possibilities)?
We use a 1050cfm carb.

6200 RPM would be perfect with the current diff ratio.
