The other problem (from experience with my 98) is when you are making that type of power the car will be all over the road. But I guess you cant do much about that with street tires...but the suspension components may help that a bit. And you could run drag radials all year. You might need them even from a 40 roll...but maybe the 5th gen will get better traction in these situations compared to my 98 by being heavier.
I put my 98 camaro into a tree 3 weeks after the heads and cam build was finished. The car was 3297lbs (m6 stripper with some minor weight reduction) and made 420 rwhp on a VERY conservative mustang dyno at exotic performance plus. It would get completely sideways at ~75mph if I shifted hard enough. I hope my 5th gen isnt as bad when I do the H/C swap....or I may just have to run TC all the time.
in other words...you might have to be careful even from a roll once you do the H/C. Respect it...
