you will struggle for that kind of power from an LLY, unless you fix a couple of things first.

Unlikely you'll get much over the 500 mark w/o a dual CP3 setup, no matter what tune/programmer you have.

Along w/the previously mentioned, a lift pump would probably be a good idea. Some have hit 500+ w/o one. It will make getting there easier to consistantly hit. PPE if you are a set it and forget it type. EFI if you can't leave well enough alone. Make sure you take small steps w/EFI. Easy to get yourself in trouble if you set some areas way out of the norm.
