Default converting a 350 to a 383 stroker

greetings to everyone reading... and happy 4th. I just bought my first car, a 1977 camaro, it has a 350 Chevy small block ,2 bolt main. I want to convert it to a 383 stroker, my goal is to make 475-500hp and about 450lbs of torque more or less. What would be a good conversion kit to get to my goal? Should I convert it to a 4 bolt main? And any advice on some good heads. Thanks in advance to everyone.

It's not really just a conversion kit.There are stroker kits that you get the crank,rods,pistons,etc. with,but then you still need better heads,plus there is alot of machine work required on the block.It is pretty expensive to get all of this done,and for the horsepower your looking for it would really get expensive,need to upgrade your transmission and other parts to hold up to that kind of power.
