Default over 400rwhp with stock ls1 heads?

I was going to order a head cam package, but now it looks like I will have to wait a while (Wife wants an addition to the house). So I was thinking about doing a cam, rocker arms and spring upgrade for now. Any Ideas or has any one run a certain combo to get 400 or more rwhp with the stock ls1 heads.
thanks for any info.

MS3 or any equivelent cam, with supporting mods...ls6 intake, longtubes, yadda yadda will get you 400+ rwhp with ease.

Check out the dyno section or use the search, there's a billion threads, cam only 400 rwhp was a goal for people 4 or more years ago

I have a buddy with stock heads, LS6 intake, and longtubes with a little 224/224 and he made 380rwhp cam only.

400rwhp with a MS3 or MS4 should be easy.

It's been done many times, you'll need a bigger cam...MS3, G5X3...

Very possible to reach 400+ on a full bolton cam only car
And it dosen't have to be a big Nasty cam either
Try the search button lots of info on that question.

Good Luck.
