Default Ideas for Horsepower Mods

Hey Guys, I need some input.

I have a Factory 350 LT-1 and I am not ready to do an LS swap yet.

I just had Steve at East Bay Muscle Cars update the Brakes and Suspension, and we Installed New Exhaust, Fuel tank, Headers, MSD Distributor, 6AL, ect...

So I am pretty much set up for a Small Block set up, but I need more power now..The engine has 20K miles and the rebuild is 27 years old. It feels kinda tired..

I kinda want to keep the numbers matching driveline, I THINK, for now, and I am thinking of just rebuilding the 350 LT-1..

Any thoughts on what direction I should go..Sure an LS would be nice, but that would mean taking out the brand new parts that I just had Installed.Gas Tank, Headers, ect...

If I could get 420 HP out of a rebuild, I would be happy.

Any thoughts..

I would still be going back over things that Steve just worked on, But i thought my Engine had more snap...It is not like it was in 1985...Even with only 20K miles on it.
