I tried to PM you back but it says your box is full, heres the answer to your question:
You should easily surpass the 400rwhp mark with no problem. I only made 386rwhp and 367rwtq, but thats with bolt ons and just the cam. I got the stock LS1 intake manifold, and stock crank pulley. The guy that tuned my car said i can see 400 with just an LS6 and underdrive pulley.

Sorry, but picking a cam just based on sound isn't the best way to go about it. You should really have a performance goal in mind based on how you use your car. As long as your goal isn't stealth, you should have enough lope to make you happy.
As for LSA, using it alone to determine how 'good' a cam sounds doesn't work. Overlap is what determines how much a cam will lope.
224/224 112 LSA
228/228 114 LSA
Your logic implies that the cam on the 112 above would lope harder, but the truth is both cams have zero overlap at .050" lift, so both would sound very similar.
232/232 112 LSA
236/236 112 LSA
These two cams are both on a 112 LSA, but the top cam has 8* overlap while the one below has 12*. The second one would lope more in this scenario
For reference, the formula to calculate overlap is:
(Intake Duration + Exhaust Duration)/2 - 2*LSA
It might be better for you to consult one of the forum cam 'gurus' for a custom recommendation.
