Are those you're only mods? If so, there a ton of things to do.
The first thing I would look at would be suspension. You're gonna need it if you want to put that power to the ground. Some adjustable shocks would do well matched with some springs if you want to go that far. Definatly some lower control arms and relocation brackets if needed.
Headers, you should have those already. Depending on the year of the car, you could upgrade to a LS6 or Holley intake.
Oh, almost forgot. If you run sticky tires with that kind of power, you're gonna blow up your rear end. I'd start looking at some 12 bolts if you plan on visiting the track much.
