Is 3.73 what you have in there now or are you swapping them out for 3.73s?

Staying with the stock 10bolt and 3.73s that are in there now. my truck is 4wd so im not gonna spend too much time on suspension and driveline stuff right away. Front diff just got a rebuild and the driver side hub will be replaced soon.

Just curious, Magnacharger kits start at like 6lbs and id think most people dont upgrade theirs trans wouldnt it be just as safe or safer with a turbo since there isnt that instant torque load on the trans? Just wondering cause it might take me longer to get someone I know to rebuild the trans for me then it would for me to install kyle's kit and do the fuel pump and injectors.
Honestly, I would start to save some money for a built transmission before it leaves you stranded, because it will.

7 & 10lb springs are coming with the kit, think Ill stay away from a boost controler for now and run straight spring so I dont tempt myself lol. still need to figure out where I can get trans parts from if anyone can help me out on that!!! Going to try and get my diff, cover, and studs installed this week and hopefully my fans soon. Can anyone tell me whether or not I need to get a bigger alternator with LS1 fans in a '00 silverado? Currently have a baby 400 amp system that i may upgrade to 600-800amps. Should I go ahead and get the 145amp alt?
