your also gonna need springs, retainers, locks, rockers, pushrods. and headers and a cat-back would be a good idea first

it adds up quick, just do a search here, or take a look at some of our supporting vendors to get an idea of prices.

your not gonna come close to 400 with a cam only car

any type of specific cam do you think would be best to make the car still reliable?

I'm guessing you are looking for flywheel horsepower, not rear wheel as 350 is achievable with a cam only setup, but you will have to have all of the supporting mods as well. Anything over that and you will really have to consider having your heads ported as well. All of the supporting mods and a good tune, you can easily be over a thousand bucks just to do a cam swap.
