Nice truck! I'd 2nd the black caps, chrome would just look funny.

Ok yeah I figured it has to be TBI and saw that as a con too. I have TBI and it is alot more simple and reliable, but TBI is OBDI, so you can't even use the OBDII scanner on them. I have the little paperclip style key and just have to count the blinks to get the code :/ It's lame and it is what it is but a PRO of the TBI over the vortec I'd have to say is that low end torque is better. I noticed my TBI has way more pulling torque and especially 4LO torque than a 5.7 vortec...

Would I rather have a vortec? Yes, but TBI will do for now until I swap in a 5.7 vortec or 5.3 Gen3, which I'm leaning towards 5.3.

Yeah, theres really no advantage left to the vortec with the 5.3 in the market. I'm neck deep in a 5.3 swap right now... getting it all organized.

deezee makes the bed caps. part number dz11998b. I think the black will tie in nicely to the bedlined rockers and window tint.

thanks for the compliments guys.
