Don't waste your time on a chip, be a real man and get a tune.

3.73's with an Eaton posi is a decent setup, but the rest of that stuff really won't make you that much faster. Might I suggest you research the TransGo shift kit vs. the B&M Transpak...

I would do headers and a Y-pipe, along with the gears/posi. Then get it all tuned. That should get you the little bit of extra grunt that you are looking for.
Suspension mods should be coming too. Torque arm, tubular LCAs, and subframe connectors.

do 3:73s, a set of headers, a tune, some SFCs, lower control arms, and have some fun! I have pretty much everything you have plus what you stated, and it was alot of fun to drive.
