What are the goals with the build? What will the primary use be?

The primary use is being a toy I have a 2015 gmc Sierra for a daily driver. I want to be able to go off roading and go in the mud so I don't want to go too crazy with the motor.

Is budget an issue? Are you looking to put money into heads?

If the motor is out, throw in a cam thats ground for torque. If not, dont do anything since its just a mudder.

With it being a 2010 setup are you planning on deleting the DOD/AFM?

Leave the motor as is....if you're going to be in the mud with it. Mud doesn't hold traction (unless you talking paddle tires) even then your better suited leaving it stock.

Leaving the mud and want to play on asphalt? You're an affordable cam, full length headers, away from having a tail happy K5 Blazer.
