I use to say that too but you can't beat this type of gain with minimul work and power off idle.

To much money to blow on her truck just doing a couple thing to it. If I found a blower for a deal like 2k id do it. I'm not spending that type of cash on this atleast untill my car is done.

The truck looks good. What year is it? If it's still got the clutch fan toss it and throw in an e-fan off an 05 and up silverado (you can get the harness from Nelson). What kind of tune do have? Between the e-fans and a tune from Matt at TTP I picked up a solid 3 mpg highway and a ton of power. Just something to think about.
