Dont kno if u have but i highly recommend getting sum springs.... If u still have ur ls1 intake u might want 2 look into getting an ls6. I pretty much have ur same setup and it put out 391... prob would have hit the 400 mark if it wasnt 4 the intake holding me back.... go 2 http://www.ls1howto.com/index.php?article=23 and it will give u a list of parts needed... will u be doing it urself?

I made 416 rwhp with stock heads, LS6 intake, headers, no underdrive pulley, no cats, and through the cat back..if you are running a six speed 4.10 gears are needed.I ran it for about 40,000 miles.

Lobe seperation (LSA) is how well it idles, the lower the number, the choppier it idles... the higher the number the more calm or "stock like" it will idle

That is a very inaccurate and misleading statement. LSA has much more to do than that.
