From the looks of those goodies, I'd say you should. Also very important to get the best tuner you can, to get everything setup.

you will break 400 EASY... mine made 420rwhp with longtubes, much less aggressive cam than the one you will be using, stock 243 heads, and stock intake/tb

Very similar to my C5 mods and I was exactly at 400 RWHP---with an automatic---
An auto trans in a C5 had about a 20-22% drivetrain loss whereas a 6 speed manual only had a 10-12% drivetrain loss---Not so anymore on a C7 where the auto trans now is equal to or less in drivetrain loss
