it wont happen, unless you drop 6K on a big bore set up. and thats just for the short block parts not the price of labor, aswell as the best heads on the planet and the cams of a life time!
350 is much easier achieved!

I'd say get a supercharger... it would be so much cheaper, so much more reliable, and so much easier than boring it out, and spending money doing little mods. But heads and such and a supercharger is what i'd do.

i know we all wish we could see 400 in a N/a setup but unlikly, i would say go with the N/a because everyone has a blown mustang so a high powered n/a would be nasty i say do everything you can think of and get a close as u can to 400...and if all else fails go with spray

well to reach the 350 mark N/A think around 6-7 grand.
and to hit the 400 mark think at least 12 grand. The only way is to go big bore, but these heads really dont flow well enough to get that type of power. Boomer a client that has been trying to build a high compression motor and using Boomers best heads, and cams and the most that he thinks will come out is 385. And it wont be driven on the street except to the street races. 350 will be the limit on a N/A DD 2V.

after all this you will be able to tell your buddies that you make "treehundred and fitty" horses and they will all look at you and laugh and remind you that you spent 8k to do it while they spend 4k and hit 400 like it was nothing, then got a built shortblock, longtubes a new intake and some cams(another 3k then tuning) and spent what you spent, to achieve their 450-500 hp... just saying your wasting your time is all.

and after building your 350hp monsta, think about what you achieved, a empty bank account and a car that runs slower then your friends that was smart and went ahead and spent money the right way to achieve better power goals... and smokes you everytime you race because you just had to try and milk a 2v for all the NA power its got, when its been proven it doesnt have hardly any... i just couldnt justify spending that much money to be just like every1 else (im being serious, what 1 outta every 10-20 mustangs you see is running some kind of boost and thats being 100% serious consider alot of people dont even care enough to do anything to them, so on your goal to street supremecy and trying to strive to be different, you end up being identical to every1 else, but lesser to those who where intelligent enough to realize boost replaces the emptyness inside 2v owners have)

well nes ur blown, I would be willing to bet that once i have my heads and cams on and in, that I could run with you or quicker than you. Blown also is about twice the price of what im doing. I am not going to be disapointed with what my 2V makes N/A, because I will be running high 13s at my altutide. That = a mid to low 12 second car at sealevel. Then i will run a 75 shot which here at this altitude will gain me around 105 RWHP and i should be in the twevles here, on a daily driven car. And i will have half the money than i would in a Novi 2000.
