So IMO, I'd focus on the Camaro for speed. There are some cheap things you could get and used parts in good shape are easy to find but again that's money that could go towards your Camaro. If the 5.0 is a daily cruiser then I'd leave it alone. It'll be very reliable and there's no sense in having 2 project cars at the same time.
