Just watch your budget, now you're talking about elec. WP and other things so you better be prepared. You're now looking at about a $1500 budget for your cam swap.

All the 92-97 blocks are the same. Front end is different and cam slightly different in lift, but basically the same. The few more HPs the later years was due to exhaust and gearing changes. Boring the block mean s more cubic inches. So if you bore the block just go .30 over and you'll have a 355 CI engine.

I set of stock heads ported to a stage II set-up ( porting and larger valves would go nicely with a 355 and an aggressive cam.

SlowZ, I disagree about the Comp cam ( but I won't delete your post )

Comp had a bad rap for years I wiped a few out in the early - mid 90s! but their much better now. They have a wide selection and the 306 cam is probably the most widely used cam in the LTx cars and is a real consistent performer.
