Default Monster NA build

Hey everyone, I'm making plans about my car, 99 Formula M6, and I am just looking for some opinions. Here is what I have/I am planning:

I have:
LS1 aftermarket lid
3:73 gears
12-bolt rear
Short-throw shifter
Dyno Tune
Custom cat-back (Y-pipe) w/Raction tips

Plans:
383 stroker kit (eagle or lunati) w/all forged internals of course
Texas speed M4 cam/ 205cc Mongoose heads
New oil pump
9" rear w/4.11 gears
32# fuel injectors
Functional Ram Air hood w/ws6 lower airbox
Carbon Driveshaft
90mm TB and FAST intake manifold
Pacesetter LT's w/ True Dual exhaust/SLP loudmouth resonators

I want to be able to drive this car on the street, but it won't be a DD or anything like that. A weekend stree/periodic strip fun car
I don't want any FI or N2O, just personal preference.
Let me know what you think...also if my head/cam combo is too tame for a 383, and what is the best compression to shoot for with no FI or N2O....

looks pretty good,you may gain a little more top end with the afr 225's but the 205's will throw down some sick midrange..should be a fun car

I'm a big proponent of working with what you've got...I have an aluminium LS1, so I'm going to make the most out of it...without FI or N2O

If you are stuck on a 383 then check out Tony Mamo's post on his 383 dyno testing, very informative.

If you want the best 3.90 bore LS1 head made, then check out the TFS 215.

Remember that an ls1 stroker will need to have the block clearanced for the rod bolts in most applications. I like the tfs heads as well with the 13.5 angle for improved flow.
