Default Any little things to add?

I am adding a small cam (224/228) which was recommended by my tuner and I was wondering if there is anything else that would be cost effective at this time to throw in. I have already had them set aside an underdrive pulley. I was thinking LS6 intake manifold and a ported throttle body then call it a day. Is there a better path to take or better parts to spend money on?

P.S. I just noticed that my sig isn't showing up for some reason so I should say that I already have LT headers, BW intake, and B&B exhaust on a 1999 FRC.

Double row roller timing chain and maybe an SLP "blueprinted" oil pump. Then call it a day.

I ordered springs, ported LS6 oil pump, timing chain, and Ti retainers along with the cam . I hope I can get into 11's, that's my goal for this year I think that should be enough to take care of pesky porsches and most anything else that's not modified around here.

Sounds like a plan!
