I haven't had to adjust my latch since I purchased the truck. (Only had
the tailgate on 1/2 the time anyway - I normally run a reinforced net.)

If you going to run some injector cleaner through the tank, use the Techron
(from a Chevron Station). It's my personal preference but you can use
whatever you want.

The MSD box puts out multiple sparks below 3300RPM and also puts out a
"Hotter" single spark above 3300RPM. Most of us who run a MSD box have all
seen minor performance gains and major fuel economy gains (+1 - +4mpg on
the average). The MSD-6 (P/N# 6200) runs about $130.00 and is easy to
install. A higher performance coil is also recommended; Accell has a
direct bolt on and MSD recommends their Blaster-SS coil. Both are about
the same price - $35 - $40.00.

As for the air delivery, QuickD (Tony) has a very nice setup that bolts
right on to the truck without any modifications ($140.00??). K&N (or
Mopar) has the Gen-II system which runs about $200. You may also want to
look into budgeting for a modified Throttle Body. (QuickD, R&D, or Magnum
performance all have a good TB.)
