Very few around, but it can be done.
1st, list your car and mods.

LT headers no cats qtp cutouts, ls6 intake manifold, underdrive pulley, ported TB, lid, 12bolt moser 4.10

my next question would be if I could make a pretty streetable headcam package with spray to yeild over 500hp...I know you cant put too much compression cause then you cant spray.

Just get yourself a mild cam/nice AFR small bore heads and spray a 100 or 150 shot on top of all of that. You will have no problem reaching your 500hp goal.

N2O loves compression, the more the better. You could make a nice 430>450 rwhp setup, the shoot another 100 and you have 550

I'm at ~11.88:1 SCR and 8.68 DCR, that motor begs for juice. (Nice way to clean up the pistons too )

January 2007 issue of GM High Tech Performance features "129hp! Budget LS1 HEads/Cam" on page 28.

"Texas Speed's Magic Stick 4 Cam and PRC heads pump an LS1 up by 129hp!"

With the cam only, they hit 482.3hp and 439.1# torque @ 5100rpm.
Serious power from just a cam and a tune.

As far as I've seen, that the largest gain from a cam only application.

That was with an underdrive pulley only attached .
Spinning a/c , powersteering , mechanical waterpump , alternator those numbers will drop . Seems through a stocklongblock LS1 MS4 cam only gets around 415rwhp .
Top notch cylinder heads , induction , and lots of compression .. 500rwhp is possible with an LS1. Its already been done and recently . Looks like the owner drives it on the street . Search: Trick Flow
