The weak point is the tranny, so keep the mods to a minimum and you'll be fine. Sorry to hear about your 5.9...
To start off with, I would recommend doing a CAI and some exhaust work (if the wifey doesn't mind a little rumble. You could do some mid-length headers to improve the lower and mid-range torque numbers. A new muffler is needed too. You could also do some 05 stock e-fans and some pulleys. Besides that, a custom tune needs to be done as well. Contact Allen Nelson for all of your tuning needs.
Thanks for the feedback. What do the fans and pulleys do, are they spendy?
