I'd get gears first, most of the the lt1's came with the 2.73's, I have 3.73's in my M6 T/A, I wish she had 4.10's. Shes a little over 2k at 70 MPH. I've also got the ceramic coated Pacesetter LT headers, they are also a good investment. But depending on how much you want to spend I would go with the gears first, they are cheaper to get the job done right, if you get headers you might as well get a cat back unless you plan on running true duels, which I personally have, but wouldn't do again.

He's an M6, which came with a 3.42. The only gear change that makes sense is a 4.10, if a gear change is in order.
You already have the rest of the exhaust, so a set of headers would finish what you have already started.
Next would be a good set of gears.
If you want to change the rear tires, 275x40x17 fit in the wheel wells with no problem. You could probably pick up a used pair of wheels in the For Sale section. But it will eat up a significant amount of $$.
And the 52 mm TB is the correct choice, since it matches the intake perfectly.
