Unless you swap out the intake manifold neither of those throttles will bolt on.

On a stock motor niether is needed.

Ok iv been lookin at f.a.s.t performance parts what manifold would match up or would be recommended. On the first step to tuning

What are the plans for the truck?

I don't even see a need to upgrade the stock manifold unless you going to be some serious power adder.

Just swapping intake isn't a very smart or sound way to try and increase hp on a stock engine.

Start with a cam and exhaust or just jump into a turbo build.

Why is that not a good idea to upgrade the intake man and upgrade the tb 2 a 102m will that cause problems.along with the cam and dual exhaust.

you will spend $1800 on an intake and TB which will get you 30hp or so.. 5.3 and stock heads dont really respond well to intake mods..

or you can spend $300 on a used cam and get 50hp

LS engines like exhaust mods, cams, and BOOST.

Thanks for the advice whats a great exhaust and cam , whats recommend single or dual exhaust with what boost. Trying to have this installed by end of the week.
