you will never get 350-400 out of bolt ons..... with a blower and a few other mods yes but bolt ons........... sorry it wont happen

put it this way... I had every bolt on and N/A cams for it to make 290rwhp I added the blower at 8psi it put down 465rwhp and 422 rwtq


I made 465rwhp out of a stock shortblock 2v but its not safe and I would if you are planning on making over 350 do rods and pistons at least... I know many say 400 is safe but for it to be safe you need a perfect tune and never get a bad tank of gas.... plus if boosted never go in to boost in cold air
