I wouldn't waste the $500 or so on an electric water pump. Just not worth the 5 or so HP you will pick up. With you having a cam, the LS6 intake would benefit you a lot, 15-20HP. I might be missing it, so forgive me if I am, but sub frame connectors would also be a great addition for you. Save the rest of the money for a real rearend or a nice set of heads

I can't emphasize enough to you how much better gains you would see from the intake versus the water pump plus a $$$ savings.
I figured I would eat my words on the SFCs

An underdrive pulley might be something else you want to consider. You could probably pick both up for $500 ish
