HP/RPM gain worth TQ loss?

So in looking for a new cam and RPM's i am debating if it is worth it. Im looking at 2 cams (Lunati 402A3 and A4) which will increase my RPMs to about 6200+ and im thinking about 30-40hp and 30ft/lbs down low untill about 4000 RPM's. Anyone have any input? I know the duration of these two new ones will help my heads a lot. So im thinking i could hit 600 HP and the TQ would stay about the same just move up a little in the RPM's.
