I've had the Denali for 7 years and decided I'm keeping it so it's time to freshen it up. It was a 2/3 drop with McG spindles and their spring kit out back with Arnott Bilsteins and their Bilstein Air ride shocks in the back.

Now it's still McG spindles but with the stock keys turned down a bit, Belltech Street Performance front shocks, bump stops cut in half, new idler, pitman arms, stock replacement upper arms with camber adjustment kits and Moog ball joints.
Front and rear DJM sway bars, OE sway bar links in the front, DJM rear links (tricky bitches).
Belltech 3/4 springs, used OE spacers so it's 4" drop I think. Kept the air ride for now, but am seriously thinking it will be gone soon if any other sensors fail on it.

It rained here today so I only have one good pic. Let me know what you think!

I wanted a change from the chrome 22's so I got the U2 55BM with Nitto 420's 305/35/24. I definitely got the change I wanted.

Next up, is a refresh/rebuild of the engine; Lunati cam, Trick Flow headers and some other quality valve train parts. Kooks headers, mid flow cats and custom dual exhaust of some kind.

I'm still trying to get some advice for what to do with the intake and throttle body. Any advice? The build is for reliability and HP/Torque figures as close to 500 hp as the budget allows. Any advice from past LQ4 builds before I search like a fiend on here?
Thanks!

Welcome, I'm just north of the cities.

500 whp all motor build is going to be pretty exspensive, unless you plan to booost the motor. The stock throttle body and truck intake should be fine in my eyes for a good cammed motor.
