Default need help building ls1

i currently have a 99 ss camaro that i just got out of the paint shop and it looks sweet pics coming soon. now i want to rebuild my engine to get more power. I was thinking of small cam ported and polished heads and a few more things plus bolt-ons. but i'm new this it will be my first time building an engine and I want to be pushing at least 400hp to the rear wheels with good mpg since its a daily driver so can some of u pros give me some suggestions.

You might try searching on other peoples combos that they have thrown together just for an idea. Welcome to the site
Are you an A4 or M6? 400rwhp is attainable with a cam only, so you should be well over with the right heads and cam combo.
