Default Expected output with this combo?

Hey have a friend with this setup and am kinda curious what you guys think about the cars power?

Mods are as follows

2K SS M6
Lid
Slp loudmouth
ASP underdrive pulley
Ported throttle body
Comp cam 218/218 .563 lift
Stock Tuning
Car made 363/349 with just the cam.

Have since added Hooker longtubes with OR Y pipe and will be exchanging the 218 with a TR 224 or POSSIBLY the new TR230 cam. Im assuming both of those cams would make a little more power than the the comp cam that was in there. Also with longtubes/OR pipes, tuning and a ls6 intake being added he hopes to hit around 400rwhp. What do you think? Seems to be a pretty strong runner and i think it will happen.

Also do you think it would be wiser to stick with the TR224 if a 150 shot is going to be added? Isnt a lil higher lsa better for spray? Educate me a lil <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Well, I see that you have stock heads. I personally think you will need a good set of heads to reap the benifit of a big cam change. I would think that your 218 / .563 cam is very compatable with stock heads.

Just my opinion, but slapping in a big 230 cam into a stock headed engine may be self-defeating and raise some serious tuning issues.
