I think a set of heads and nitrous would be good.

I also agree with cookba on the suspension.

I'm guessing your biggest gain would probably come from a set of ported heads since you already have an LS6 intake. LS6 should be good to over 450hp IMO...

since you dont want to spray than you're going to have to get a set of heads.
