What Fuel/Ignition to go with?

I am going to put the LE2 heads/cam combo on my car sometime soon and I am getting an idea of other nessecary parts I will need. I talked to Lloyd about a setup and my goal is ~420RWHP and he thought that was a resonable goal to shoot for. On top of the 420HP I want to run some kind of nitrous setup. I was thinking of going with a NX 150 wet kit, many people seem to like NX kits.

What is the capability of the LT1 fuel system (stock)? I know that since I want to run nitrous I will need a new fuel pump, whether it's a intank or inline I don't know. Will an inline pump work fine or should I just go with an intank? Do I need to run a different regulator, what is recommended? And finally, what are stock injectors capable on doing? Mine you, with nitrous I will hopefully be making ~550RWHP and I don't feel like replacing pistions right away

Now for the ignition system. What should I run for an ignition system to get full potential out of this setup (ignition box, coil, wires, plugs)? I really have no idea what would be the best way to go, so I need some helpful suggestions on this part. I don't plan on spinning this thing past 6500RPM and I'm 99% sure the stock opti is capable to do that. But I was thinking just for extra insurance just to go with a new Dynaspark opti.

Am I headed in the right direction?

anyone else? I'm not worry about my bottom end. There are plently of LT1s out there with 500+HP on stock bottom ends. And of course I will get a GOOD tune for this thing.
