2002 LS1 Engine
I have the opportunity to get one out of an SS Camaro for a reasonable price. 72,000 miles. Is there anything to look out for? Does this have the LS1 or LS6 intake, seeing as it's the SS car? What would be an ideal upgrade (affordable) to get around 400hp? Thanks for the input!

So it sounds like a minimal extra investment will get me a good amount more power? This will be in a daily driver. I'm happy to hear that the intake is what I'd want. I'm thinking a cam with something like 220°/225° @ 0.050" and about 0.550" lift or so will get where I need to be? Any ideas? I still want good driveability and MPG. 1966 Nova wagon is the goal. Will keep the 4l60e as well.

I still am driving this every day and wouldn't mind good gas mileage. I think with a bigger cam it'd be a little tough to do so. Any reports from you guys on MPG with bigger cams? I know the aerodynamics of a camaro are much more forgiving...

Something like this. Call Geoff personally and ask him to help you customize it to your car.
Here's a dyno of one of his "baby" cams:

Yes, that's ridiculous power. And faster than I actually want (or need) to go!
I'm wondering if I could make similar power with this engine? So are the heads the same on a 2002 SS Camaro engine?

Cool. I am new to the LS1 scene. My other car is a '69 Nova with a traditional SBC that is becoming a 9 second car. I understand stuff about those engines a little better. I can get this 72,000 mile setup for $2800 to my door complete. Accessories, computer, everything. Cheap for the power...
