Been asked before, general consensus is just sell what you got and find one with a 5.7 HEMI. You will waste a lot of money trying to squeak out extra HP and basically will spend the same amount if not more had you just got the HEMI.

Probably not what you want to hear but the 4.7 is just a basic entry level V8 for it's time and not something that brings a lot when modded.

Pretty much what hoot said. The 4.7 is a pretty decent engine when maintained. However, it's a little too weak for a full size truck. You could max out bolt ons & still get spanked by a stock 5.7.

Intake, exhaust, tuner will help out any vehicle. Headers, cams, heads if you have the budget.
