Exclamation Anything else I can do?

I want to leave my car naturally aspirated. Besides suspension and an electric water pump is there anything else I can do for more performance? Here are my mods. Also do I need to upgrade injectors etc. i'm running 11.6 w/ around 400 horse to the wheels!

I don't know much about cams, all I know is that it's a 222. It is a weekender so power is very important.

Just so you know, if you have stock bore and stroke, it's a 346 not a 350.
