I put MSD on my 360, and I dont notice a damn thing except a slight better throttle response. I know its noticable on mildly built motors, but I personally cant tell any difference at all while cruising or accelerating. Maybe other people do, I dunno.
A V8 throttle body will give you move vacume to your brakes, and it will seem like you have more power at first. Once the computer learns though it may feel kinda sluggish from a stop. It lets more air in, which is great for faster speeds and higher RPM's. I would try finding one from a salvage yard. What year is your truck, I may have one, send me a picture of your linkage setup.

I put a complete MSD system on my truck, only noticed a quicker throttle response, and it seemed to idle a tad smoother. If your truck is stock I would probably go only as far as wires and coil. The MSD ignition boxes really aren't needed. And I would only swap the coil if yours was getting pretty old.
