estimate of hp/tqe with this combo?

Quick question...I'm thinking about trading my low-mileage, stock camaro for one with a decently built engine. I'm just looking for a rough estimate of what hp/tqe i'd have with this combo...this is the setup of a guy's car that i'm talking to.

Now has a built 355 (.30 over
350). Motor was built by Sauer’s Racing.

And features: Speed Pro Forged Flat Top Pistons(with
about 9.7 to 1 compression).Speed Pro Plasma Moly rings.
New stage 2 rods with ARP bolts. Cast crank. 4 bolt mains
assembled with ARP bolts. Also has HV oil pump with deep
sump Moroso pan.
Heads are Edelbrock Performer RPM’s (64cc chambers) (ARP
bolts here too). Completely port matched to (intake is
port matched too)Victor Jr. intake (1206 Fel-Pro gasket).
Cam is a Comp Extreme Energy 284 (240/246 duration at
.50, .507 lift intake, .510 lift exhaust). Crane Energizer
Roller rockers(1.5 ratio, 3/8 stud). Double roller timing
chain.
Hardened pushrods.
Engine was assembled with all top quality Fel-Pro gaskets
(1010 head gasket, 1206 intake.. etc.
Carburetor is a Barry Grant Mighty Demon 750 cfm.
Also has Barry Grant street fuel pump. All braided steel
lines.
Has all MSD ignition(6AL box, Blaster 3 Coil, Pro-Billet
Distributor, and 8.5 mm plug wires).
Has a fuel cell with fuel level sender.
Headers are coated Hooker Super Comp long tube #2210.
Mufflex Y-pipe and Flowmaster 3” cat-back.
Car has a Griffin aluminum radiator with dual electric
fans.

Thanks for the help.

420-430hp and 350-360tq. I dont think I would trade a nice low mileage thirdgen like yours for another one just because it has a "built 355", but to each his own. Good Luck.
