. As soon as I get the head/cam swap done on my T/A, I will start gathering parts for the e-fan swap.

You might want to think about a dealer installed Radix supercharger, exhaust, and cold air intake kit.
My dealer (Munday Chevrolet) offered me all of those mods for a $7,000 option. Warrantied by GM too.
This is very cheap if you do the math. I had to turn down the option due to my better half
.
If you can take up on that option, I would do it in a heart beat!

The $7,000.00 option included : Radix sc, CAI kit, Super chips tuned, the Corsa sport cat-back system, all installed, and all warrantied by GM for 5years or 100,000 mi's. I think that is a very cheap option!
Was hoping my ole lady was going to let me swing it, but her facial expression said different at the time of final purchase price!
What do you guys think?

I like mine too. I've only had it for a couple of months and already it's leveled in the rear, billet GMC in front (cleans it up tremendously), debadged, limo'd windows, 20's and an in dash double-din touch screen cd/DVD/TV Tuner radio.
I was just going for a regular cab V6 to save gas and keep miles off my Camaro but for a few thousand more I figured I'd just get a truck I'll keep for a while.
