That is small motor for a big car. You might want to consider maybe getting
the 300hp 360 and upgrading to the Stroker crank and pistons, and a Crane
210/220 cam. That should make 500 ftlbs of torque and around 400hp. Plenty
to move a 4000 lbs car. This combo would cost you about $100-200 more than
the 380hp 360.
