Newb from east Texas!
Hello to all. I have 2005 silverado 5.3z71 ext. Cab. And it's awesome. I also have a yamaha 1000 fz1 and dodge srt10 ram. The problem is when I drive either of the two they get my blood flowing. But when I get in the chevy it feels like a dog. And that is presisly what I plan on changing, and ls1 trucks has already been lots of help. I will definitely post threads of upgrades as they happen! Really look forward to advise from some pros.

Thanks guys, I reside around Tyler. I actually have a z06 cam and springs, new pushrods, lifters and rocker arms going in the truck next week some time. I will get dyno numbers before and after and post it up.

Unless you are planning for budget build or some form of forced induction the ls6 cam isn't going to wake it up a whole lot. To replace the lifters you will need to pull the heads. Also if u have brand new lifters word is chevy dealerships have went to ls7 lifters only which have deeper seats. So make sure the pushrods are the right length. At least the swap over is what the chevy guys at the one in town said... May just be here
