Default How Much HP?

I'm building an LQ4. Boring it out to 6.2, using stock ls3 pistons, stock rods, stock crank, L92 heads not milled, LS3 intake, long tube headers, lingenfelter gt2-3 cam duration @ .50 207/220 lift .571"/.578". I can't get the engine back until the shop balances the crank, and I need the flywheel, but I have not bought a clutch kit, with flywheel yet because I don't know what kind of horse power the clutch need to handle. I'd like to go with the level 1 monster clutch for about 450 rwhp, but I'm just not sure.
