just did my cam swap TSP stage 3 231/246, .640/.615 111 LSA. got it locally tuned (not wideband), it drives good, no bucking if it does its because im still getting used to it. only complaint is the exahust smell in the cabin. i have speed engineering LT with xpipe (not cats) straight piped to the muffler. its loud and obnoxious lol. as far as power not sure what numbers im hitting will not get dyno tuned till probably march/april. first i need to fix the exhaust smell, even though its part of the pay to play and the smell is inevitable. its not as fun to drive with the a/c on. With these texas heats....you need a/c! All in all my goal is also 500rwhp NA. up next will be the ported stock heads from TSP and the rod mod on the intake, or i might go with an atomic intake. after that, a clutch will be necessary too. get ready OP cause its gonna get pricey! but money well spent! good luck my corvette brother!

Cam Motion custom, good ported LS3 heads, FAST intake, 102 TB, and headers.
Or an A&A kit and make 6-700+ stock motor.
It depends on if you want a dyno queen or go A-B quick.
As for a stall, who you get the cam from can recommend the size stall. Usually a healthy cam needs 3k+.

Please let me know what the intake and throttle body actually give you on the same dyno you made the 471. Would be interested in them if you see a real increase. I hear the stock intake manifold is actually pretty good.

Im sure porting your heads and going E will get you 30whp or maybe even a bit more. When i get mine ported ima port intake manifold and TB. Might as well.
