Default 502 Rebuild for 27ft fever

I have a 27 ft Fever that had a 502 mag mpi engine in it locked up. I have bored the block .30 and bought the dome tops to go back in it and the rods have been changed to floating pins. I'm going back with a set os Aluminum heads and carb. My question is what would be a good roller cam to use in this engine? I want a good lopy sound and power up to 5000-5500. I'm kinda hoping to be somewhere close to 500hp or better.. Any ideas????

you'll need more than just a cam to hit 500hp. Some better flowing exhaust, the cam and a little intake work should do it. Don't forget you'll have to reprogram the ECU also.
