475hp 406

hey guys just curiuos for your reconmondations for my 406, right now i got a scat 9000 crank, scat rods, silv-o-lite KB pistons ( think there like a .100 dome) air gap intake, and right now I have the comp extreme engery cam. i think its the 278? with the .490 lift , I have no heads

I dont think that the cam is going to be big enough to support that much pwoer, please keep in mind this is going to be a street car so proper street power is an asset.

so any cam ideas?

I'm thinking to go with say dart iron eagle 210cc intake runner heads?

would I need to do anything to the vavle train that it comes with ( I think it says good up to a .550lift)

also what roller rockers to use? up the ratio? I heard upping it with a higher lift cam is bad.


let me know

power range 475-500 at crank

cheers
