Default EPP/ Brute Speed cam guys

I'm in the market for an epp/brute speed cam as I am procharging my car. I orginially had a 243/ms4/lt's/ls6 intake/85mm tb/42lb inj setup on my forged 6.0(410hp/399tq though a t56 and 10bolt). I swapped over to 317's and a .589/.589 228/228 116LSA cam, 30lb inj and made 374hp/373tq through a t56 and 9in. After doing all this I regret not getting a blower cam in the first place. I plan to keep everything on the car now just but just swap cams. What would you estimate my hp/tq numbers. I would really like to hit atleast 400hp.

My car made 378rwhp 350rwtq with that cam with stock 241 untouched heads stock headers H-pipe / LS6 Intake, stock TB only mods were borla catback / K&N Filter the cam.
BUT IT WAS ON BUILT 346CI 9:1 COMPRESSION.

So its very safe to say you'll hit 400rwhp for sure.

I agree, with higher compression I don't see him having a problem hitting 400 rwhp. Bob

my 228/228 .588 .588 thru a stalled auto netted me 393rwhp 367rwtq. I am sure this cam would have been a little better. I am running it in my 390 setup with an f1. hoping it does good.
