If your new engine is stock it should run fine on your factory tune. A dyno tune will give you a couple more horsepower but generally isn't worth the $400 plus cost until you add a few mods.

A midrange torque converter, 3200 to 3800 stall, will give you the most performance for the money. You will knock a full half second off your quarter mile times for around $500. A lid is good for about 10 hp for about $100. A used LS6 intake will run about $300 and is good for about 15 hp. These are the absolute basics.
