This cant be right! or can it?
My car gained over 100rwhp but it was from a few upgraded bolt ons in addition to the heads and cam.
Your results dont seem right with the low torque though.
Full bolt-on car before 345 HP/355 TQ
Added AFR 205's, ported fast and @ comp 224/224 .581/.581 on a 114 C/L
Now 443 HP/363 TQ, about 100Hp gain was excaty was what I expected.
You see this combo all day @ 450 HP/400 TQ

It was two different dynos. Before the H/C I had been on 5 different dynos all about the same results 343 to 356 HP and 352 to 357 TQ, right on the money for a full bolt on car.
Where is my torque monster?
If the new combo added RPM but kept TQ more or less the same, you will show a lot more HP.
TQ * RPM / 5252 = HP
356tq * 5060rpm / 5252 = 343hp
363tq * 6400rpm / 5252 = 442hp
If it is a question as to why your TQ numbers are low, how big of a cam?
How much overlap?
What are the actual valve events?
On the 224 cam (same as you) with ported FAST 90 and NW 92mm tb I made 404whp and 370 to 375 torque. on 24 degrees of timing. Same ls6 heads
