A good set of 5.3 heads worked over should get you there too along with some higher compression.

As for best bang for the buck I'd go with these:

Patriot perfromance, livernois, and prc 243 castings are probably the best bang for the buck. You might make a little more hp with the other heads but they will cost you.

also as big mike suggested you could look into some patriot 5.3's or prc 5.3's to up your compression a little as another option.

If you're looking for a great head at a great price, we've made more power than you are aiming for with our stage 1 and stage 2 heads with cams similar to yours. My C5 made 420 RWHP / 390 RWTQ with our stage 1 cnc head, 224/228 114 cam, Longtubes, X-pipe, Stock Z06 catback, and LS6 manifold.

These heads can be found at the following links:
Stage 1 CNC LS6 Heads
Stage 2 CNC LS6 Heads

Thank you
