Default Any guesses as to how much HP this build will make

hi i have a 2001 camaro ss with an slp lid borla catback and edelbrock panhard bar/control arms, very soon i will be putting all of the below in my car and was wondering if any expirenced ls1 owners could give me a basic HP range ill be looking at with the list of parts below. thanks not looking for specific lol i know thats impossible to knwo till dyno but a basic range guess

SLP lid
85 mm ported/polished throttle body
BBK SSi intake with 85mm inlet
thunder racing camshaft 224/224 .563/.563 112 LSA 1700-6500 RPM band
(new stronger valve springs and pushrods to match cam)
hedman long tube headers
bbk underdrive pulleys
comp cams roller rockers 1.7 ratio
borla 3'' catback exhaust

so what do yall think had a budget of 1600 and think i did a nice job putting some things together. later will do gears anything else yall might think would go well with this setup?

Around 400rwhp with an m6 on a dynojet give or take a few hp. I had a tr224 its a good cam but I would go bigger if I was you. Maybe an futral f13 or a custom cam.

you don't need roller rockers. trunion upgrade at most. also check out PAC 1518 springs and titanium retainers.

my 224r made 373 rwhp with stock heads. 400 with stock 799's. the cam u chose is slighly smaller but should make similar power.

btw wrong section brah.

is it manual or Auto?
how big are the headers?
what type of cats are on it? size cpi?
what % is your underdriven balancer?
stock injectors?
has car been tuned or is it getting tuned on the dyno?
