Default better performance for a 5.7 small block?

Hey everyone,

I have got myself a small block 350 vortec in a 2500 silverado and I'd like some advice on how to tune it up for more power and better mileage, more mileage than anything. I've got a 128 litre tank and shudder the idea of filling that up every 4 days, but because I am rigging it up as a welding truck I also need a bit more ponies to keep up with traffic. SO if anyone has cheap and efficient ways of doing this please let me know. I've got the basics down already with getting performance mufflers and air filter and maybe a chip but I dont know wat the best brand would be....

and does the small block 350 come stock in a 2500 anyways?
