Exclamation How to make an ls1 a monster

Okay, bare with me here people i'm a newbie. I love cars, but i dont really know much about them. I'm planning on buying a 98-2002 camaro z28 doesnt matter how many miles are on it because i plan on replace the drivetrain. I want to put a new ls1 in it and a t-56 6-speed trans in it...

What i would like to know is what i could do to the engine to get the max performance out of it. I want it to have somewhere 450-500 rwhp. What are somethings i could do to acheive this goal also what parts you guys recommend to do these mods to the engine. Let me know your inputs i would greatly appriciate it.

Thanks,
Tony

What's not to understand? You aren't going to find a more detailed, start to finish explanation of every system than that...

do not buy one and replace the engine, drive it as is at 1st and get used to it. Then after you have done this if you still want power bolt on's and possibly nitrous.
