Electric fans are a really good mod,you pickup a little bit of power,a little fuel milage and lot of throttle response.

Yep! or check out eBay. Most folks are getting them from $75-$125. I believe you will need to pick up a harness as well. Nelson Performance sells them, although I can't remember the price.

Go for a free flowing exhaust. Our factory truck mufflers are really restrictive. I'm not sure about the difference on a NA motor, but when I changed to a Gibson cat-back on my whippled 4.8, it made a significant difference. It actually made more difference than the Dynatech longtubes.
