Default what to buy with 400cad??

Aperently I've been a good hubby lol so my S.O is going to buy me a part. what can you all recommend as for some reason I can't think of anything that could buy to give it some more hp?

Current mods:
Rockers
Ported Intake manifold
K&n intake
Mild tb
Sure cure kit (tep)
Shift kit
Gears
3inch exhaust
Custom headers
Trifecta tune

I'm obviously missing a cam..but for the price she's set I'm doubtful I could find one.

Maybe a used stock ls6 cam lol ???

u would be way over budget for a cam install. i would do a tune, exhaust cutout, and trans cooler.

trans cooler for sure (should of been your first mod), I'd also upgrade the rest of the valve train, espically if your thinking about camming it one day.

I've got some magic beans that will lower your 1/4m time by .5!!

What kind of "custom headers" do you have???

It looks like you have most of the simple mods done, I'd say buy some rims and drag radials for the track(if you like going to the track).

Trans cooler with a ZZP shift kit. Gears are a must, but can wait till rebuild time. I would save for a intake swap.
