Default need a lil advice

Ok well i am here at wyotech and just found out i get a discount from summit for about 20-40% off and from comp cams and a few other places. I want to build a 355 street machine. I know i will need new stall and want to stay around 2000 to 2300 maybe 2500 if you think it will benefit possible cam options. I plan to keep stock heads just port and polish and do the valvetrain whats a nice street cam i am shooting for 400 to 450 at the wheels I was thinking forged internals but a few guys said they arent really needed. Compression i was trying to keep 11:1 so i can stay pump gas Budget build basically no more than 2000 for sure on this one any advice on which comp cam to look at ???
