Default Anyone have any good cam ideas to break 400hp?

Does anyone have a set up they would like to post that pushed them past 400 hp? Im trying to get ideas for when i get back from Iraq. I want a safe cam that wont push the engine too hard(i just hit 74,000 miles), but i do want it to be lopey. I have an 02 with the ls6 heads, and i really dont want to change them, keep in mind when i put the cam in, im also have longtubes and full slp loudmouth im putting on too. Any help will be appreiciated

Some people have made over 400 with the 224 cam or you might look at the 228r from texeas-speed.

I just made 402 Monday with the cam in my sig! I was actually pretty damned surprised! The last time it was dynoed it made 390 (different dyno), but Monday was the absolute PERFECT day! The temp and humidity were great for getting big numbers! And I really love this cam. It has the daily driver manners of a stock car, but pulls pretty damn hard up top in my opinion.
