Mods? I have a 2000 Z-28 M6 and its my daily driver. I have some what of an idea how to start or I could be wrong. I'm planning on getting SLP lid, jet headers, 3" catted y pipe, and SLP loudmouth exhaust. After that I don't know where to go from here. I need suggestions.

i don't think a stall in his M6 would be very helpful. i think it would just add weight 
.
2000Z-28 the list you have there is a very good one. theres a few routes you could go with that list. an ls6 intake manifold would be very helpful. even a tune. most ls1 m6 with bolt-ons put anywhere from 330-350rwhp on a good tune. maybe gears and some Drag radials would be nice. you would have to be careful with gears and sticky tires with the stock rearend thou.
it all really depends on what you want to do with the car and what your budget is. what most people do after bolt-on is go with a heads and cam package. the sponsors on this site have great packages that will put you in the 400-500 rwhp range depending on the combo.
nitrous is a good choice and is the most power for your dollar.

thanks. Isn't the ls6 85 or 90mm intake manifold? Would I have to change the throttle body? Also, I'm planning on getting a Ford 9" rearend. I have not decided on gears yet. A couple of friends of mine say I sould get 4.10's. What size cam should I get running on stock heads? When it comes to cams I don't know anything.

the ls6 manifold is he same size as the ls1 78mm. you wouldn't need a aftermarket TB.
you can go with a pretty big cam since your a M6 and still be streetable. look at some of the sponsors like TSP, thunder racing. both are have very good information.
