Good morning, just to let you know i never built a engine and im wanting to build a 355. i was looking in a rotating assembly kit from eagle for around $800 what all do i need to get to make this work? my goal is to hit 400hp right now i have a 350 and a th350. i also have 2 carbs, a holley 750db and a edelbrock 600. i also already have headers, and a mild cam but have no idea what the specs are. so my guestion is do i need new heads, cam, etc. or is that kit all i need. thanks for the help.

here is the kit i was looking at

If you want to do it nice, plan on at least twice your budget, then add 500 bucks. My SBC build is nickel and diming me to death. Would've been cheaper to use a pull-out LS motor.
