Default '00 WS6- Whats next?

I have a '00 WS6 with a 6 speed. Its' a street car that see's the track a few times a year. Here is my mod list so far:

Comp Cam 234/236
Fast 90 Intake, 90mm Hitech TB
SLP lid, MTI Bellow, SSRA
LTH, ORY, SLP Loudmouth catback
T56 Shifter
UMI LCA's, UMI Panhard Bar
Rapter Shift light
MSD Wires/NGK plugs
Mt Et Street Radials

I will be getting some cutouts, a fan control switch and a LC-1 wideband with a digital guage. I also have some Fast 36# injectors that will be installed in a few weeks. Other than that, I'm not sure what to do next. Here are the things I want to do eventually:

LS7 clutch/flywheel combo with a Tick performance adjustable master cyl
Either 12 bolt or 9" with 4.10 or 4.11s
243 heads or similar
Some sort of suspension mods, single adjustable in front and double adjustable in back maybe? Or any ideas?

Which order do you think I should do these in?

Thanks

Hello
I would go with a aftermarket rear end. Seeing how you are looking to make power. The stock rear will only handle so much until it breaks....Just my opinion though and then do the heads
Have a good one,
Brad

lambo doors yo!

but seriously, like said above, its only a matter of time before your rear breaks. Only takes one good deak hook. Also maybe some LCA relocation brackets, and a new spring/shock combo

Should I get a 12 bolt with limited slip posi or with Truetrac differential. Or go with a 9" with a Truetrac limited slip or detroit locker? Im not sure which one to look at without compromising any streetability.
