How much HP will I make?

I plan on possibly doing a cam swap on my camaro this summer and would like to know what type of rwhp I could expect. The cam specs are 234/242 .595/.608 on a 112LSA. I do not have any other mods done to the car now. I would like to have my heads ported also but at this point I can not afford to have them ported at the same time as I get my cam. Thanks alot for the help in advance. Oh yea I forgot to include that if I go ahead and do the cam this summer I will being getting LT's and some true duals at the same time to help out the flow.

With a manual car I'd expect to be in the 35Xrwhp range with stock heads, and easily above 400rw with a good set of worked over LT1's .

You'll likely want to go ahead and replace the stock lifters with something like a cc875 though...

I wouldn't expect you to get 350hp at the wheels with only a cam. Get some more bolt-ons and it's easily attainable with a good tune. A tune, a set of LT's,a CAI, and a nice free flowing exhaust should net you around 350 with that cam.
