250/200 hybrids -1800
Heavy duty clutch - not sure what those go for
H2E -2400 or 38r -1500
springs, pushrods 300
head studs 600
chip 500
gauges 350

That should satisfy you...

What is a "sweet" truck to you?

What is your HP goal?

What is your Budget?

I think you forgot one BIG thing on that list... A new short block...

OP has a 2003 which is equipped with PMR's!

Well take some time to read the threads above and we will go from there...

Mine is my work truck, it has to get me to work every day...

With yours having PMR's I would go on the mild side...

AC code injectors- $1800-$2000
38R- $1600
Gauges- $400
AFE Intake- $400
TS Chip with single shot tunes- $450

That will get you a 350-400hp truck that will be about smoke free, within the safe range of PMR's and alot of fun to drive.
