New guy here
Hey everyone, another noob here. Just thought I'd come introduce myself and say howdy from the great state of Oklahoma. 
My name is Mark and I have a 2001 Chevy Silverado with the 5.3L engine. So far, I've done headers, a GM Performance Parts Hot Cam swap, cold air, dual 2½ inch exhaust with Flowmasters and no cats, and some custom computer tuning. Things yet to do include: Fully forged rotating assembly, sleeving the block to 4.125" bores (if that's possible), either a MagnaCharger or WhippleCharger making 9-10 psi, maybe 3 inch exhaust, and prolly a 3500 rpm stall converter. Oh, and prolly oughta beef up the ol' 4L60-E tranny and the rear end so they dont choke the first time I nail the throttle with all that juice huh? Haha. Lots o' time and money, but I think it'll be well worth it.
