Default 375-400 Hp 302 engine?

Besides, nitrous, what would be my cheapest set up to achieve 375-400 hp from a 302 engine?

On a stock engine a s/c might not be enough. S trim is a vortech unit. You may need the s-trim plus obvious bolt ons. I gt40 swap plus 1.7rr's and the s/c would be right around 400 I'd say
