How to make more HP out of a ZZ430??

I'm having my car built right now from Gearhead Garage in Sacramento Ca, and I have already bought the ZZ430 motor, my question is how can I make even more HP out of this? I heard the Airgap manifold might help some, but what are the other improvments that I can make to bring this motor to life.I do have the Hot cam and rollers, but wanted to know how to boost the power levels while still being streetable.

Thanks in advance
Mike

Might get more help outside the LS1 specific portion of this board.

I'd go with classic engine tech.
