Its got a header back flow master set up, dual cats. So ill be ditching the catted mid pipe for a O/R h-pipe. And BBK long tubes.

My biggest concern is the c5 tranny that is in it. I have no idea what kind of power it can withstand. Found just about zero about it by searching the web.

ditch the c5 tranny and pick up a c4...you can get them cheap...i'd spend my money on that first before anything else....c4, stall convertor, good shift kit...

does your tranny have a D with a circle around it on the shifter?? if so it's an AOD not c-5, c-5's were 3 speeds and used in such things as v-6 bronco's and were not placed behing 5.0's, you would of had a c-4 if it were a 3 speed and there originally from factory.
