i wouldn't waste money on the spacer, maf, or bigger throttle body. Best mods for the money are: LT headers, tune, intake, and nitrous if you wanna go that route.

There are several people that have had serious issues using the granatelli MAF and really it doesn't have any advantages over an OEM piece. As for the throttle body, unless you're planning on getting a cam and some other supporting mods it's not worth it. If you were to do a cam along with exhaust and tune then I'd recommend possibly the Pro Products intake/tb combo. Someone on here recently installed both and I believe that had some good gains, can't remember who it was now that I think of it though.

Z06 cam won't get you anywhere near that kind of extra power. I recently put a GM HotCam in my truck and I like it, and it's daily drivable, but most guys on here put bigger cams in. The tune you should have a speed shop do a good dynotune or perhaps call up Wheatley performance and do a mail order tune. Wheatley does awesome work and is very knowledgable.

What are your goals for your tahoe?

i am hoping to get near 400hp to the wheels i would like to run nitrous on it not sure how big of shot to put there is a speed shop like 45 min away from were i live and they do have dyno tuning that is the way i was leaning tune wise and i am plannin on putting a procharger on the tahoe asap

well, putting a procharger and exhaust/intake on the tahoe should get you there no problem. I'd just do the procharger and maybe a small blower cam and you'll be set

what kind of cam do you suggest i should use i dont want a verry big lope

Actually, the z06 cam would work okay with the blower if you went that route. The cam by itself will yeild ~30 rwhp over your stock cam.

ok do you know what kind of lope it will have
