the gm ign stuff is pretty good so no significant gain there, the exhaust the choke point is the converters but i wouldnt mess with that unless you are going to tune it, i would get a k&n drop in you get value for your money, the cold air intake doesnt do anything more for trucks than the drop in and its about 8-10 times more expensive. then i would set the bfg'* on a 1500 crew cab to about 38-40front and 35-37 rear and measure tread wear alot to see if its wearing properly.

Tires run at 38 at all four corners, and wear is even.

Truck was just aligned and tires are freshly balanced.

Best way to improve gas mileage...
1. Remove 2nd, and 3rd back/front seat driver.
2. Cut hole in roof, install turret, mount Browning M2 .50 cal automatic machine gun.
3. Insert classical music cd
4. Set cruise control and watch as everyone moves out of your way as you hum along.
