450 on motor can be done with cam only...450 at the wheels is gonna take some descent heads too. I suppose a set of $400-500 243's and a nasty cam could do it. Oh and your gonna need a LS6 intake if it doesnt already have one

To achieve 450rwhp that is.
If you research parts carefully and do some of the install yourself.
