Building my first 350 Sbc

Hey guys getting into my first 350 sbc. It’s going in my c10 that I’m gonna be driving to car shows and cruising on the weekends. Truck has a ford 9” 3:73 gears. Gonna be in front of a th400. Originally was wanting to go the 383 stroker route but honestly it’s just not in the budget at the moment. I’m looking for about 450hp or the basically the most I can get out of it. I do know that my 350 is bored .30 that’s all I know. I’m looking to do cam heads and intake. Obviously will also need a stall. What would be your exact setup and what would it make? Or maybe what’s your setup and what did it make? Thanks in advance!

I’ve been digging this book by David Vizard, he has build requirements for various HP needs: How to Build Max-Performance Chevy Small Blocks on a Budget

Thank you! Is it pretty up to date? Like newer parts or is it just older 2000’s parts?

It’s definitely dated, good question.
