I think you on the right track as-far-as cam size for the power band, and you already have the gears that'll go great with a cam that size, but I don't think you'll make your HP goal, unless you go with a bigger cam, and/or have the heads milled.

my vote goes for the street sweeper ht as well. it's right around the duration you mentioned with a little more lift. although you will need to look into a FAST, UDP, and a custom Y setup in order to reach your goals. maybe see how much you can change the head gasket thickness to bump that compression a touch
