Default H/C/I Swap

Ok i have a 2002 corvette convertible and i am considering do that swap on my motor. I have about 30,000 on the car and i was thinking about doing ls6 heads, comp cam, springs, pushrods, and an ls6 intake. What kind of power should i put down and is this a good set up for the ls1 motor. Also what kind of money do you think it will cost me to do that entire swap with labor. Also is there any other things i will need for the swap

Hmm. LS6 heads. Ported or not ported (Patriot)
Comp Cam. Which one.
Not making this mistake again. 2002 should already have the LS6 intake. So no need to change that.

Need to answer those top 2 lines before anybody can give you numbers.
