Weight reduction, getting rid of the Nitto's for M/T's would make the car a little faster but no power gains. Maybe Aluminum Flywheel and LS1 DS to free up a couple ponies, maybe the TB Bypass which is simple to do and dyno proven to give 5-6rwhp. Could do more suspension like k-member, lca relocation brackets, shocks and drag springs etc. etc.

Nittos are my street/strip tires and when i pick up some drag rims they will get MTs.
Is there anything more I can do for power???
Suspension is on the short list after the clutch.

if I were in your position...
I would get in touch with EFI connections about their cam sensor and such that allows you to run a SBC with an LSx PCM. I would buy an aftermarket SBC block, run 427-434 cubes, some kickass heads, a big solid roller, single plane intake with an elbow, and make 650-700 hp while keeping the RPMs at a reasonable level.
in order to make a lot more power than you're making you're going to have to convert SBC parts. why not just go the other way around and end up with something better?

I may end up switching to carbs someday though.
