$500 - What to spend it on...

Well, in a nutshell, my truck is listed in my sig.

'03 Silverado 4x4 extended cab, Nelson Tuned, electric fans, True Flow intake and cat-back dal exhaust that was on there when I bought it (can't find a name brand) with 3" tips.

So I have about $500 I'm looking to spend and am looking for ideas. Would I like it to have more 'umph'? Of course. I don't think I can swing a cam though, it would be about $900 installed. So I'm thinking headers? Stall converter? Different exhaust? Can you upgrade just injectors? I need a shift kit and was thinking of doing that and a servo...

Throw me your ideas, I'm open to 'em!

I'd go for the pacesetter long tubes. They really do help out on the performance aspect, and will compliment your current intake/exhaust setup. A converter would simply be a 1/4 mod if you want to go that route. Plus, for a good converter with a stock tow rating will most likely be over that $500 mark. To answer your question, yes you can upgrade the injectors, but you'll have to get Allen to tune for it. You can pick up a set of 8.1L injectors pretty cheap. They are a nice upgrade from the stock 4.8, 5.3, and 6.0L injectors. A shift kit and servo is always a good mod, and you can have Allen drop alittle more TM.
