where are the ls1's?

I cant find a straight answer on what m6 ls1's make with full bolt ons and a good cam. Can you hit the 400 mark? I know im an lt owner, i just wanna know. And when i say good cam i mean, pretty choppy. Maby just give your opinions on mild to wild.

Yes, 380 is standard for a mild cam, 400 or higher for a big cam

400 is the magic number for LS1s IMO (depending on the dyno) Go much over that and you will sacrifice some or a lot of its driveability. Thats cam/bolt ons only that I'm refering to. 420/430 at the wheels isnt impossible on a friendly dyno.
