well after much debate and thinking this weekend. i decided instead of puting the pacesetters i bought for my sierra on, i decided to put the ebay stainless ones on my sierra and put the pacesetters on my 2500, since some say the pacesetters would rust and some said they wouldnt, i didnt wanna take the chance cause i rather them rust on my daily than the weekend truck.

anyways i was wondering what yall think my next best mod would be for the price and to go along with what i have on the truck already??


right now i have : built 4L65e with hd-2 and vette servo, 4.11 gears,volant ram air cai,efan,tune(prior to LT's),ebay LT's . other stuff is just appearances and interior.


soo a few things and prices ive been looking at:
1.243 heads ,$300, having them shaved,$100= $400
2.circle-d 3200 stall, $375 i think i cant find the price he quoted me
3.ls6 intake swap, not sure on price as it varies depending on seller


soo let the suggestions begin!

 

1,2, AND 3, then about 200 hp worth of gas!

 

Guys that have swapped to the LS6 intake have seen little gain. I would do wcch stage 1 5.3s, a friend of mine swapped those out and it made a huge diffence his compression is a little above 10:1.

 

Set of DR's and some spray..

 

Option 4, buy my plate system!

 

Get the shaved 243's bump the compression a bit and increase the in and out flow of the engine...

Of course, I'm probably just trying to convince you because it'll make our setups fairly close to identical

 

spray is on the list,plate kit of course, but was hoping to see how far i could push it n/a without going too crazy far as cam ,expensive heads,ect.

, at the moment with gas prices going up and me driving 60 milesa day in the gas hog 6.0 its kinda hard for me to justify spending bookoos on the weekend truck. i even had to cheapen out on the system im puting in it cause i like having a nice bank account just in case haha.

oh and i already have mt et streets for track use so thats covered, those was a must after the 4.11's, last time out which was like september i think i was geting 2.00 60's with my little mods so i dont guess thats too bad, hoping for 1.9x's with the LT's but well see, wanna do a few more things before i have the tuning fixed,plus i gota find a new tuner.

but i'll look into those heads, proven gains are always a great selling point

oneday, when i can afford it, im swapping to a nice set of headers, the 2.5 collectors are leaving me wanting more, im thinking stainless works. but thats down the road.

 

I got my heads from a member here for something like 450, already milled .030, with LS6 springs, and 4 plugs that he forgot to take out of one of them.
