its really not going to be that much,
A: you have an out of box cam and you didn't list specs, but edelbrock performers tend to be lower.
B: you didn't list roller or flat tappet
C: shorties are just going to kill you on hp but will give you tq.
D: Single or dual plane intake
E: size of carburetor
F: are you using an msd box or an HEI distributor.
All of these have huge factors as to what generates horsepower. I've seen 355's range from 250whp up to mid 400's on motor. I'm personally building a 434 that should put me around 700hp at crank for my third gen.

It looks like he is using the performer package which means:
1. The specs of the cam are 204/214 420/442 112
2. All the cams in the performer setups are flat tappet.
3. At his power level you probably won't see much difference from LT to shorties. If he steps up with heads big cam and single plane intake then yes LT's all the way.
4. Intake is dual plane
5. All the carbs are 600 cfm.
6. At his power level, an MSD box is probably not needed right now. He can get away with an HEI with a stepped up coil in the cap.
With that 350 at the crank is probably close to where he is at, but not at the rear wheels.
