of course, the tune up is worth it. Not sure about about the power gains though. Also, you may want to change your spark plugs, wires and distributor cap. You could also flush the rad, and clean your TB. As for tranny fluid, I'd recommend Redline. I've heard that stuff is great, but it's not cheap.

if you have the timing belt off, at least change the water pump. i'd also reccomend changing the idler pulley, and the tensioner pulley and spring.
