Is the short block stock? If so maybe a good set of pistons and rods are in order.

I haven't done it myself, so take it worth a grain of salt, but the Manley H beam rods and forged pistons seem to be solid pieces. Kinda depends on what your HP goals are.

For the Methanol Injection check out

Snow Performance: Home

I dont use it but I had a buddy who used it on an Intercooled Vortech (mongoose kit from MPH) back in the day and he said he picked up quite a bit from it. It drops AIT's and allows you to run more timing. Alot of guys get a retune with the set up, but you have to be careful, because if the nozzle gets clogged ~ pop goes the motor.

If I were in your shoes though, I would spend the money on some Manley H-Beam Rods, Forged Pistons, and a Cobra Crank... Go with a deeper dish piston to drop the compression ratio to around 8.5 to 1... Then you can crank up the boost with out worrying about tossing a rod.

I would go ahead and upgrade the rear end now. Get yourself some 31 spline axles and maybe an Auburn 31 spline differential. Add to that some good rear lower control arms. If you can do the work yourself, you can save yourself enough money to probably buy some good drag radials(MT et street radials) or some slicks.

Also another good choice.
If you are going to bump the power up, i'd build that rotating assembly with the cash..
But you could use that money and add parts to get more out of the power you have now like stated above...
