I'm by no means an expert... but from my gatherings on here i'd say...

what cylinder heads ?
AFR 205's

what cam ?
224/228 114 LSA

what headers ?
Kooks w/cats

what cat-back ?
Corsa = refined/quiet... (which is what you said you were looking for)
Magnaflow = throaty/quiet

what intake manifold ?
LS6 of which you should have already seeing as you have an '01

what throttle body ?
Nick Williams are nice

what air intake system or lid box ?
most say a lid is fine (SLP, MTI)... but i'm gonna pick up a Volant soon as sealing seems to be an issue on all lids... plus I have a WS.6

what should i do with the vavlvetrain ?
Patriot Gold Dual Springs

can i do something to the shortblock make the things better (standard 346 ci) ?
one word... "forged" not really necassary though...

can i go with the BMR chassis package ?
I'm partial to UMI but BMR stuff is nice...
