455 Stroker Motor Build

I'm trying to get info on building my 455 into a "torque monster" stroker motor. I'm currently running a 461 (30 over 455) with a stock crank, perfromance ported "C" heads, Comp XE268H Cam with hydrolic lifters, 700R4 performance transmission, 2500 stall, 3:91.1 posi, O4B Aluminum intake with a 750 Holley double pumper. It's in a 70 442 convertible (heavy car) and I'm still not happy with performance.

I don't need 600 hp but would like 580 pf Torque if possible. I thought I might accomplish this with a "storker" crank and get the cubic inches closer to 500.

Anyone have any thoughts on how and if this can be accomplished on carburation without going to Mondello and shelling our $6,000 for a 485 short block? What can I do? Please help. Thank you.
