Default upgrade opinions HPDE/time trial car

Building a HPDE/time trial car and am curious on a few items before I buy stuff.

Car is around 2600 pounds, getting an 04 GTO pullout with a T56, 110k miles.

Plan on the below
improved racing oil pan baffle
melling high flow/pressure oil pump
comp cams 11-428-54, 228/230 .571/.573. 112+4
Trunion kit
PSI 1512 springs
Comp cams 875-16 short travel roller lifters
new lifter guides, drilled
new pushrods, need to check for length
1 3/4 long tube headers
Coyles timing set
3qt accusump

Possibly new clutch and lightweight flywheel, open to recommendations on these as well but no carbon stuff since I can't afford it...

Leaving everything else stock, ls6 intake, 241 heads and bottom end. Rev limiter set to 6800, dyno tune.

This seem like a decent plan from a matching perspective? Any glaring issues?

Thanks

Make sure to get some nice beefy pushrods. Also mill your heads and get some thinner headgaskets for more compression and better quench.

Also, 6800rpm might be a bit much for that kind of cam/heads/intake setup. That thing will peak long before.
