you can also upgrade your fuel pump and fuel injectors. a good sight is summitracing.com i had that same exact engine in a camaro and summit offers the most go fast goodies that i have found. you can shop for things that are specific to your engine.

yeah i have a 98 v6 camaro and am getting some Magnalow put on next week and then I am going for the CAI to go with the whisper lid. I already have new plugs, wires, and coils. keep me informed as to what you're doing, I am on the same track as you, but a mod or two behind.
