Not really unless you want to start taking weight out. If you do, check out some of the weight loss threads on LS1tech. I think theres one that lists each piece individually and what it weighs.

Also remember that with tires, the stall and gears are going to cut at LEAST .5 off your 1/4 if you can drive. You should already be nipping at 12s with a tire. You can also do rocker arms if you want. You can do smaller things like pulleys or EWP. Invest in a 12 bolt.

After that, get some spray or go heads/cam.

Suggestion.... get an electric water pump, 1.7 RRs, and a throttle body with a tune. I bet you pick up a bit from that!
