In a Past Camaro I used a Speed Demon 650 Vortec heads and a LT4 cam (it is a roller though) and made 325hp +
Look at Jegs SDPC or Summit racing their GM Crate engines and it will give you a cheat sheet. ZZ4 crate motor is 350HP with the ZZ4 cam and Vette alum heads.

be aware your current manifold will not fit the vortec heads .
Heres a "heads up" (pardon the pun)

Back in 2001 I built one up like this http://www.superchevy.com/how-to/463...ngine-build-v/
400+ hp and torque. It put an '87 S10 almost into the 11's.

300 with a carburator?
Heads, and a double pumper will do.

If you go with vortec heads, there are some aftermarket ones that have dual pattern bolt holes for the intake. More $ though. Vortec can make an easy 30 to 40 hp, but read up on them, there's some stuff to do if you're using a bigger cam. Not all Vortec heads are equal, so make sure that you don't pickup the wrong pair.

Just put in some rear gears 3.54 or 3.73 and a 100 hp shot of NOS. That should get you about 360 hp. cheap and easy and the chicks will dig the big blue bottle in the hatch. Then add a stereo system that will blow the panties off.
rear gears $1200
NOS $900
Stereo $1500
Some sweet wheels $1400
these are just guess prices I am old and out of it, it could cost more or less.
And if that doesn't work go to plan B, buy a C7 or a viper.

If you're going inside the block, a stroker (383) gives you the low end grunt damn near a BBC.
Absolutely BEST to define the car's use, not some arbitrary HP figure.
