Default 2000 5.3 questions...

just bought a 00 extd cab swb with 110k miles and ive got a few questions about it, its strictly a work/ project truck but its MINE!!! I dont mind used parts either...

1ST... what "problems" do i need to look out for with the miles? right now its got a lot of little issues from lack of TLC... drivers seat rocks back and forth, fuel gauge is trippy like the float is sticking or something, needs a few seals, rear tranny mount, power steering pump and the rear brake valve are leaking.

2ND.... how hard will it be to put seats from an h2 in it? OR... should i just look from some leather seats from a newer extd cab? will 07 and up seats fit?

3RD... what AFFORDABLE boltons combo will result in about 400 hp and driveability and still have good gas mileage, ive got a good idea but id like to know what other 5.3s are running with boltons CAI, Exhaust, tuner, etc.

thats it for now... ill keep posting em as they come if i dont find em on the search. thanks for the input!
