Default Goin back into debt

First of all, truck is paid off
Now time to put $ into. I know injectors are on the list, as well as new rubber a few front end parts and alignment. For my tires sake and my peice of mind I'm doing the whole front end and tires and alignment in the same week, but what about injectors? Which other upgrades should b done at same time for longevity?
Thanks

Ya forgot to mention have a 2 micron cat filter on it now with the nicktane adapter but think I want a lift pump. Just not sure which one and how powerful to go?

lift pumps are great. sure helps with priming after filter changes and you dont have to worry about air getting into the lines.

100 gph is likely more then enough, can probably get away with less but many go with 150 gph and some of the high HP guys go even higher. With two CP3s and roughly 400-450 HP tune my 150 gph pump holds the pressure just fine.

Air dog 100 here and love it. Like 04lb7 said, priming is the bomb with a lift pump.
