Tax Return Options

Well last year I got a pretty decent tax return, almost $2000. Well I've been thinking this year that if I get another good return it's time for some go fast parts for the IROC. Heres what I'm thinking.
Superram kit
AFR 190's
Some sort of cam
Set of headers
So the question is, can this all be run on the stock bottom end of the 350 that is currently in the car. She's only got 77,000 on her right now. Also what cam would be good in this situation? I'm an nube when it comes to this whole engine thing, so I also need to know what other parts will need to be purchased to complete this swap aside from gaskets. Also what kind of power output would I be able to expect from this? I'm hoping to see at least 320hp and maybe 380tq at the fly, or is that not even possible? Please let me know, I'd really like to looking into this more heavily but I need your guys input first. Thanks in advance.

Ryan

the stock bottom end will take it fine... as for power wise its gonna depend on which cam you go with... a lot of peole like the LPE 219 with the super ram setup....
