probably best in the newbie forum, but I would say less than 3500# raceweight, all the basic bolt-ons, if it's an auto a high (4000+) stall converter and a good cam should do it, some suspension, and some sticky tires.
or you could just spray it
Basicly, weight reduction (good weight transfer) and a well setup car. What elevation (track) will you be running at?

What's your budget? Is it an all option car? First things first; take off your front sway bar 
Bolt-ons: exhaust (LT headers and true duals or y-pipe and catback), LS6 or better intake, ported TB, lid & filter, free mods (TB bypass, FRA, ect), 160* thermo, upgrade gears (maybe 3.73).
Suspension: some good (HAL/QA1 or similar) adjustable shocks, LCA's, not really needed, but Tq arm, SFC's, light weight suspesion (k-member & a-arms)
4000+ stall converter, trans cooler, trans temp gauge
Weight reduction: see list in one of thse forums or do a search, many things listed, some very easy to do. I recommend getting a set of drag wheels with some good sticky tires on the rear.
And then a decent sized cam, maybe 230ish at least with all the goodies.
Give Texas Speed a call and ask for Trevor or Jason, they can set you up with EVERYTHING you will need to get that car running awesome
