Alright...95 Vette, you are looking at an LT1 car very similar to the same setup as yours. I believe the LT1 in the Vette was rated somewhere to the tune of 305-315 rather than the 285 of yours. This increase was attibuted to a slightly larger cam profile, a detuned KNOCK sensor in the computer (all this does is helps the computer to ignore false knock, so that it does not retard timeing) and a higher flowing exhaust and intake. Depending on the actual health of your LT1 ie. mileage and wear and tear, the power can be easily made.

Start with a good exhaust (bigger pipes, no cat or hight flowing cat), headders etc. (could be around 1,000 for new stuff. Next,

Buy a cold air intake (maybe 200)

IF YOU WANT TO MAKE ALOT MORE POWER THAN

Buy a set of heads, get them ported (2500)

Port your intake (150)

Add roller rockers (comp makes a good set "R", usually runs around 350)

58mm throttle body (350)

An aggressive new streetable cam (200)

A torque converter to launch (500 or so)

In short, check my thread in the for sale section and buy that stuff. That will make over 500, I will sell it cheap too. :-)
