    The intake is a Bully brand. Its fairly cheap but looks and works good. Lines right up with the factory spot on the fender. I did have to cut about 1/2"-3/4" off the end of the tube to fit it but thats easy enough. Part # IK-701

    My exhaust is fully welded on. I didnt want any leaks or anything and the way he ran it I can still pull the trans out if needed without having to take down the exhaust.

    Awesome build and truck. Thanks for the updates, I just picked up a low mileage 5.3 out of a 07 Silvy.

    What is your recommendation on the harness? Should I use the harness that came with the 5.3 or go new. I didn't get the ecu nor the DBW pedal so I will need to get those somewhere also.

    Do you have a list of items needed for this conversion? Would make for a good sticky. nice job
