The 750 is plenty big enough. I would say that it is possibly the valve springs that are limiting your rpm to 5500. The 460 I had would go 6200 with ease with a CompCams 268H with matching lifters and springs. I had am Edelbrock dbl roller t/c straight up as well and ran a 750 Edelbrock AFB carb and Performer intake.
You can get a spring kit and put a lighter spring in the secondaries.
