please elaborate as to what exactly a custom shift kit entails..
does that just mean an upgraded clutch-pack and a corvette servo?

Well, not being the most technical person, the shift kit and the servo (Corvette was on option, but got some other that was supposed to better somehow). I don't think the shift kit means upgraded clutch pack, but enhanced parts to take added stress from SC and faster shifting. In money/added performance, I think shift kit and servo was the best. total cost of like $200, it really gave me opportunity to shift much faster=better acceleration.

I Don't really know, but the pipes are really fat, cats-back is huge. My mechanic, who is brother of the new F1 Ferrari driver , said these headers are really competition headers and deliver exceptionally good low and torque. So my recommendation is that if you are buying headers, take Dynatech! As I said I'll try to post a picture od them in next couple of days...

Evil, tech, and intimidating, without being loud.. suggestions?

thanks

My exhaust killed the whine completely, thank god, I don't think it sounds that hollow as those Z-71 exhausts. But it is loud when you launch, but so are some others like B&B. So you might end up sounding like "an idiot"
In idle is sounds really like Corvette, but I've never heard the sound outside the truck, because I have been driving it, but I expect it to be quite loud, like Z-71...

To me what matters is the hp and torque, my truck is strong and fast, just the way I like it!
