Default Help me build an N/A 408

Hey guys, as some of you may know, I shelled my stock bottom end motor here 2 weeks ago. Im looking to build a 408 motor for N/A power. It will be in a pretty much full weight car in front of a th350 with brake, and 4400 FTI stall. What I would like is some different options as far as cam/heads combos. Ive been searching here and there is a few good threads, but they get so cluttered up with crap its hard to sift through it all. I know this one might end up the same way, but im hoping we can keep it abit more on topic if at all possible? Im not looking to spend 15k on a motor either, but understand you cant make it cheap. Ive picked up a 6.0 iron block with a set of 317 heads and would like to keep them in mind too. Im not apposed to going with an aftermarket head, but if we can use the 317's all the better Anyhow, lets hear what you guys have to say. Im all ears as this is a new ball game to me!! Thanks in advance.

I don't know what you have in mind but I have been toying with the idea of changing my setup to a 13:1-13.5:1cr, w/ LS7 heads and staying with a solid cam. It would be sweet to see 700rwhp w/ E85 gas!!
