I think your gonna need to throw everything and the kitchen sink at it to equal a stock LS1.
Heads, Cams, Intake, all the boltons, full exhaust, and a REALLY good tune.

Seeing as how some ls1 guys are getting almost (heck maybe more) 500hp with a H/C/I swap. If speed is the reason you got a stang you might be sorely disappointed.

Your going to need P&P heads (some very good at it Steen Racing, MPH, VT) I would do a custom grind cam (MPH, VT) a good set off headers maybe hookers (eventhough they are a bitch to install) all the bolt ons ( plenum, 70-75mm tb, injectors for the peace of mind, etc...) a good tuning software (SCT the best) get it dynotune. You are going to need at least a CR of 10.5:1, if you are going build the bottom go with a big bore with a compressio of 11:1.

On my car with SLP LT's, SLP O/R X-pipe, Steeda Cat-back, Steeda CAI, Accufab 75mm TB and Plenum, and the SCT Xcal2 tune I put down 270.7 rwhp. I now have U/D pullies.. so I'd say with stage 2 cams and another tune I'd barely hit over 300 rwhp.

currently with all the mods I have listed in my sig I still get beat by some slightly stock LS1's (barely, times at the track are VERY close). So you're gonna need all the bolt ons and I would defiantely get some new heads, I recommend VT or Foxlake.. and cams of course. Definately check at www.modularpowerhouse.com they are awesome at tuning cars, with Tim's tune you might be able to get very close to your goal if you do it right.
