I don't think your going to hit 400whp with bolt ons. A cam would definately get the job done though and the nitrous is a no brainer.

i'm asking for base hp, i realize that in order to attain 400 rwhp a cam or nitrous is a no-brainer.

Yeah, that should be pretty easily attainable. And for the record, someone has hit 400 rwhp stock internals, but they had every exotic bolton imaginable.
