Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but Lloyed Elliot 2 heads, a matching cam, LT4 intake manifold, larger TB, long tubes, and a tune...?

the LE2 heads/cam will easily get you 450 at the crank with all of the supporting mods of course

450 at the crank can be had a few ways:
every bolt on and a big cam
or lightly ported heads/smaller cam and headers and exhaust.

How many miles are on your LT1? Wondering as far as if you need a fresh engine rebuild also.

But as stated before, full bolt-on's, ported stock heads, cam, ported intake manifold, etc. will get you to the power level you are wanting
