    Welcome, tell us a bit about your truck. Engine size? Mods? Plans for the future?

    Well, nothing spectacular

    Its an 05, 4.8L I have a 4/6 McGaughy&#39;s delux drop. As for performance all I have is Flowmaster 40series exhaust and a K&N 77 series intake.

    I baught the truck based around plans I had when buying the truck, I wanted a spiral gray RCSB 5.3L... I got a 4.8L because there was not 1 5.3L RCSB in spiral gray in the country I could get at the time. (Didnt wana order one... Too long of a wait)

    I&#39;ll be getting billet 22&#39;s once i decide what design I want. Going to be doing a two tone, burnt orange. I really want to get some performance mods going, but not shure on what direction to go...

    First things first, Nelson Tune. Enough said. You cant go wrong there. Other guys will put their input soon when they get on. Then from there you can go headers, cam, gears, stall or all the way to forced induction or N2O. YOu have a great base to start from. Now just keep throwing money at it. Your gonna gave to not get the 22&#39;s if your looking for awesome performance. Thatll be like having concrete shoes and trying to run the 40 yard dash.
