*combining consecutive posts*
i have no problem going nitrous, and probably will, but if i do i definitly want all the safety features you were talking about.

from a little bit of exp. your truck, the way it sits now will lose to his sierra, but if you do any of those mods (blower, turbo, nitrous oxide, and possibly builing up the motor depending on what you actually do) you will beat him. The 4.8 shines in the high reving department. of truck engines and in my opinion the 4.3 which is based off of the 350 is a torquey motor (just my opinion atleast thats what GM's goal was when they built the 5.3L and 4.8L to replace the 5.7L and 5.0L) anyways if you can use the weight advantage you may have, and turn the 4.3L into a fast reving motor you will win hands down. On the other hand he has 2wd and its a regular cab so he is really light, and has alot less power loss by having 2wd, when you order a 2wd truck they typically come with 3.23s, 3.08s and sometimes 3.42s. rarely in a half ton do you actually see them with 3.73s like my truck or 4.10s(my truck is a 4x4 z-71). This is to your advantage since he has no 5.3L for the gained torque and he now has crappy gears to get him off the line.anyways thats just my opinion for whatever its worth hopefully you all agree and i brought up some valid points.
