i got a 3000 in it now but it only stalls about 27-2800 so i i keep my same evrything and just stroked the bottom end i should be pretty close just have to swap to a lil less conveterand mabe one size smaller cam. i think with a kit like the one above i still should be able to spray a 200 hp shot to it yet for shure,im thinkin if i could get 425-450 hp + the spray it would be easy to drive around town and cruzz the hi-way thanks

I wouldn't swap cams even adn you should easily see close to 500hp with that combo.

What you cannot get on an an auction site:

Please note that our DUI's are:

1) Custom curved on a distributor machine based on your engine specs.
2) We have excellent tech support-each Distributor is issued an individual I.D. Number, so that if you change cams, pistons, etc., or want to put the DUI distributor in another motor in the future, you can call us with your ID number, have us pull your file, and then discuss whether or not you need to change your advance curve.
3) You talk to one of our employees-in Memphis, TN-not someone in another country. We are a family business that believes in the performance and racing industry

Why would you regrind a cam when it is just as cheap to buy a new one

when you regrind it you grind the hardening off and it has to be rehardened thus it's illrelevant, sounds like you had someone that wanted to sell you a regrind give you a line to get you to buy from them. About the only time regrinding pays is on roller cams where it's real expensive to get a cam (my custom cam cost $320, regrind would be around $150)
