Howdy.
I've got a mostly stock 98' 5.7 shortwide C1500 I'm wanting to dump money into but first I wanted to get a rough idea of what a decent setup might entail. This is my first vehicle to modify, so bear with me.
The engine and trans has roughly 85k miles on it, everything else crests at 280k and I'm told the rear end is a 410. Had 3.5" exhaust from headers back put on, cat still in place followed by two flow masters.
Not a daily driver, down time and maintaining fuel economy isn't a big deal. Interested in performance foremost, sound is a bonus. No plans to pull with it.
I have a few ideas/interests of my own but I'd really love to hear what you'd suggest doing to her - $8k is probably the most I'll spend on it. I'll catch up with questions in a bit.
Thank you so much in advance!
God speed.
