Don't get me wrong, I love the sound of mine (about the only thing besides my hood that is after market), but does it help me go faster, quicker?

best power for $$$$ is nitrous. but as for your list, the heads would get you the most power, but that should be done after full exhaust. and a cam would make better use of the heads.

IF you feel like it add for another 10 rwhp and 10 rwtq add a pulley.
You want the engine to breathe better, that really wakes up these ls1s.

Are you nuts? This thread is damn near 2 years old! PS: Heads are not a bolt-on for whoever said that.
