i recently bought an 08 silverado 5.3 and added a CAI and 40 series flowmaster. Looking to add headers just dont know which ones are the best; LT or ST it doesnt matter to me just looking for the best performance. also looking for other mods like plugs and wires, tune, anything. thanks!
also im looking to see if anyone has or knows of a 2-4 drop for the truck as well.
Welcome
LT no doubt there. I havent meet ANYONE that was happy with the results of ST for the money they paid. Oh NEALSON TUNE if you are going mail order for sure. If you are in Texas or close to it just go to his shop and get a live tune.
Got any pics?

the long tubes is what i was thinking on going with in the first place. yeah i have been hearing some good things on nelson tune and the other good thing is that i do live in texas. im working on those pictures right now. i wanted to add some extra things to the truck before i put some pictures up on here
lol
im thinkin you spray that beast i sprayed my 08 with a 150 shot dry and it made a hell of a diff lol
i think im going to go with set of LT, pacesetters maybe? havent seen any that will fit my truck. ORY and electronic cutout? still debating on that one.
Do some reading up on the Cutouts. Apparently dyno numbers proved they only really helped with Turbo applications. I cant remember the thread name but if you dont have turbo, cam, etc I dont think there is much point.

Pacesetters are good headers for the money. Yeah get on a Nelson tune here...Nelson Performance - Performance without Sacrificing Drivability...
How much power do you want to make? What are you planning on doing with the truck?

+1 on the Nelson tune. As ar as the cut-outs go, if you have the right exhaust for your application, the cut-out won't really help that much. I gained 40 hp with the cut-out but that was because my previous exhaust was restrictive and not very turbo-friendly. I seriously doubt I would gain the same after switching to the Magnaflow.
