Hey guys new here but just wanted to get some input. I have a 97 crew cab 4x4 sice new now 170k miles on it. Totally stock. Transmission just gave out and is being rebuilt. I would like to get more HP out of this truck, as I pull with it everyday. Want to stay safe in regards to the transmission, etc. I've read some about intakes, downpipes, chips, etc. Need some advice. Thanks

If your having the tranny rebuilt, make them put in at a MINIMUM a steel torque convertor, and a valve body (or have them mod the stock one). At that point your trans will be nearly bullet proof assuming you install a tranny cooler.

But as you already said; a diy 6637 intake, 3" dp, 4-5" exhaust, and some custom tunes such as TW, Beans, Swamps etc.
