Intake, exhaust, suspension, drag radials, and 3.73 gears will help you get there on top of the cam and dynotune you were mentioning. Although I really don't know much about LT1's, I'd also get the coil pack conversion kit for it just to rid the engine of that awful opti-spark crap I always hear about.
