Throwing in the L98

So my GTA is going back to stock...L98 from the carbed Chevy 350 pickup motor. Its a bad motor its just not right for the trans., car, and emissions *rolls eyes at emissions*.

So my question is...What can i do to get that stock 350 a little bit of power? Im thinking mild cam (the pickup one had some pretty awesome cams =P), some nice shorty headers, heads if i can find some for less than an arm and a leg, cold air intake, maybe take out the cat since its gonna be a pleasure vehicle now...

Anyways anything else? I have a functional ram air hood maybe i could hook that puppy up instead of the cold air. I'm really kinda a "noob" and probably have no idea what im talking about but hey, isnt that what ya'll are for? =P

Thanks
Presto
