Its a magnum engine. A lot of newer trucks have intake baffles that's why I asked. The exhaust is a Gibson duel rear from what it looks like. It isn't full exhaust like I thought. Duel exhaust with a crossover possible on these trucks? Most of you have never been in a car that weighs 1700lbs and has 250-300hp and has full racing suspension.

first off, what do you mean by full exhaust? give some details about the exhaust when you find out. second, the air intake is just a regular run of the mill air intake you would find on any truck... some tubes and an airbox with a flat filter in it that goes directly in the throttle body. dont waste your time getting a cold air intake, it wont do you any good unless you've done mods that would require more air like cams and a bigger throttle body. check out http://www.thefastman.com/for good after market throttle bodies for the 4.7. the intake manifold is also very efficient and so are the exhaust manifolds. not really any need to change them unless you're boosting. and i'm warning you, do not expect big gains from what i've said above. you will definately notice a difference, but dont expect the truck to run 12's with just cams, TB, and exhaust. the 4.7 is an efficient engine, but it's a small V8. remember, there's no replacement for displacement.
