Good future mods?

I’m looking as to what would be worth getting for a future Camaro LS1 (prolly a 98-00 automatic). I want it to be streetable and reliable as well w/o being very loud cuz it my daily driver. I’ll try my best to get what’s in my sign below. Now I’m just gunna name some things that might be nice later on:
- LS6 intake manifold…if it’s the 98-00 cuz the 01-02 have the LS6 intake right?
- Roller rockers and valve springs…what kind, theirs 1.5 1.6 1.8??? < What’s that mean?
- A nice mild cam shaft that’s better than stock but w/o the rough idle…that possible to sound almost stock and or worth it? I don’t know what this stuff means: 210 / 220 duration with 500 / .510 lift. Could someone tell me?
- Bigger throttle body….or can I port and polish it my-self?
- Bigger MAF…Or port/polish self?

With a auto definately get a converter and some lower gears. A ls6 cam or gm hotcam I hear are good for power and driveability. The 01-02 do have the ls6 intake and make around 10-15 more rwhp and a 98-00. Longtube headers are another great mod for power and sound. They do make the car loud though.
