2) If you aren't going to drive the car on the street much, and don't mind a slightly "racey" motor, consider the TA 413 cam. TA has a cam for every need, and they will even custom-grind you a cam for no extra cost if you want something else. They know their Buick cams!
3) When designing a motor, instead of thinking about 400HP, think about torque! Buick motors make great torque, and designing a motor to have a broad torque curve will make it very enjoyable to drive.
