    Planning my first mods...wanted to get everyones opinions, first a little back ground on the truck. Its a RCSB about 73k Miles, well maintained, has flowmasters, a punched out airbox, and a dynotune (the previous owner is a tunner at RWTD). Here is my plan for mods
    1. Electric Fans
    2. ASP Pulley
    3. Tranny Cooler
    4. Long Tubes

    now the only parts I have a question on is which tranny cooler should I get, and what long tubes? I have been looking around and it seems like its stainlessworks (or something like that), or pacesetter...I wan't stainless steel because I live in FL on the beach. Anyone have any suggestions on what headers to get?

    pacesetters get you the most bang for the buck. they're coated so there shouldnt be any worries with corrosion.

    old mod list: H/C/I/N/E/G 408
    new mod list: 5.3, gears/posi, mufler and tune : (

    Hey man I live in South GA. and I take my truckto the beach, I have had a set of (Arizonia Speed and Marine) Long Tube headers on my truck and I love them they been on for about 8 months and have not messed up any and they helped the performance of he truck alot as well, and for Tranny Coolers I went with a B&M mounted it on the front of the radiator behind the grill. Both were money well spent.
