    Hey FarmTruc:

    I would like to do these mods.

    However, for towing that 40 series flowmaster will be a real pain for towing. Can you recommend a low resonance, not loud muffler that my wife won't kill me for putting on that will give nearly the same performance?

    Also, could you give the part number on the Pacesetter headers your recommending for the 5.3? Do those pacesetter's get hotter than stock?

    I have a 2005 Avalanche, 4x4, 3.42, 5.3L.

    Does the cam kit come with everything I'll need? Any recommendations on installers in the Cincinnati area?

    I just have a drop in K&N filter - is that adequate? It is the bigger one - the same size that comes on the 8.1 L motor.

    What order would you recommend the install?

    Headers, muffler, cam , then your tune?

    I'm a novice!

    Thanks for the help.

    I like the magnaflow, it's free flowing and not too loud. Corsa isn't my style, but there is no resonance with that muffler, she'll like it too.
    They are just headers for 02+ chevy trucks/suv, can't remember what the # is.
    Keep in mind your truck is a lot heavier than the truck posted, so you want to keep the lowend torque. Your truck will do better with a 212cam instead of the 220cam.
    yes, the filter is fine.
    I would get a tune first so you can take advantage of the power now, plus it will give your truck more power than the headers, muffler and kn put together.

    hope this helps,
