It takes a bit of work to reach 400 hp in a 400- a cam swap, some RARE manifolds and a new exhaust alone won't do it. It also takes improved cylinder head flow, increased static compression, improved carb and ignition upgrades and tuning. First off, are you working with a W72 or an L78? Secondly, what are you planning to do in the rebuild? Stock 400's benefit greatly from swapping over to ported heads with small chambers, big valves and screw-in studs in addition to a larger duration cam with high lift.
