Default Stat comp vs. Dyn comp vs. Cam specs?

I am going to build a 383 now for my 02 Z06 that my motor has three bad holes. I need to know what my static compression ratio is going to be with the following parts, and what size cam I am going to need to run to bring the dynamic compression ratio down to 8.6-7:1. I want this to be a bad azz daily driver slash street racer. I figured somthing in the high 230 to mid 240's at .050 would be a good cam.

Mod list.

AFR 205's 59cc
Eagle forged rotating assembly -2cc, 6.125, 4.00, 3.905
.40-.54 commetic head gasket? That is the real question. Which one?
LS6 intake and ported TB
ASP UD
Dynomaxx LT's
Borla cat back

I want to make close to 500rw if possible. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Brett

If your bring your compression ratio down, I dont think that 500 will be atainable.

The static compression ratio will still be some where between 11.5-12 to one. The dynamic compression is what will be down in the 8.6-7 with the correct size cam.
