Airdog or Fass along with Fuel Psi gauge. The rest is up to you. a 99 Auto so it has Hx35 which is alot better than the Hy35.

Fuel system, Airdog or Fass, the factory lift pumps on these trucks really isn't adequate for a stock truck let alone a modded truck. Gauges of some sort would also be a good idea, you just have to decide between mechanical and maybe a chip that includes them, such as the Edge, or the Adrenaline. Intake/exhaust are also a good idea, but deffinately take care of the fuel system first. Congrats on the great buy:tu:

get a fass a 4" turbo back mechanical gauges with fuel pressure and an edge comp or comp hot aka drag comp then save for a built trans. :tttt:

Gauges, fuel system upgrade, tranny. At 190k miles (unless its been replaced already) my bets would be that the vp wont be healthy to much longer.
