New to the site. nnbs 08 4.3L RCSB
Hello everyone. this is the first time i've been part of a Forum or any kind or thread so please excuse the lack of knowledge on how all this works.
I live in the Dallas, Tx area. I have a 08 Sierra RCSB looking for others with 4.3 that have done mild mods. I know, its a V6 but i got a bada$$ deal on the truck Brand new and love it. I've done HID install, (the right way) added DIC, added factory Cruise Control, FlowMaster Super 44 dumped, painted door handles, Billet grill, white face gauges, Viper 6000 pager alarm w/ remote start, and K/N filter kit. Waiting until after my wedding to do the drop and wheels.
Any leads on headers would be great.

Thanks, i will prob look into a swap after its paid off. it is my daily driver and as part of that deal i was talking about, i got the Major guard Warranty for free so i would like to keep it until i own it. the Dealership i got this truck from was hard-up to get rid of their '08 inventory and basically gave me this truck.
i can't find LT or shorties for this year truck. i am assuming that this is the same block that they have been using forever now and that all i would need to do is mod my Y-pipe to fit some LTs on the truck. Do you know of any clearance issues with the steering or trany?
