I think that a good 228 cam or the torquer 2 would be a good choice. Get an LS6 intake manifold when you port the tb and you should be right at 400rwhp.

Gears? Stall? What goals do you want besides just 400hp?? Do you wanna keep it a DD or turn it into more or a strip car? If you dont wanna do gears or a stall your prolly wanna stick to something around a 224/224, its proven and wont kill your driveability
