@Rick - hah hah! I think you are right. My wife says I am an all-or-nothing type of person. I was thinking of adding some air ducts to the front brakes, thats a simple addition. Accusump is on order

My engine is similar to a ford crate, but it has some different components. I need to get it on a dyno this year because I think its running pretty good now with the EFI tune I have. Its a 521 inch big block, so i think the power band is something like 1500 to 5000. At least that is what the computer model said, certainly feels that way!
@Dallas - good for you!! Don't overreach your limits, it will take a few laps to get used to being passed by volkswagon GTIs and Miatas :O. But they are fun to catchup with on the straights.
