Buy some from a 05-06 silverado 1500. Much better than those aftermarket brands.

As long as you have the 34" radiator, which you should with a HD, they'll fit. And junkyards, eBay, or check out car-part.com

You have a blackbear tune right? They have a harness you can buy from them and they can tune your truck for it.

I like it just for the fact that I don't sound like a jet plane takin off and it cleans up the engine bay a lil bit. But it didn't really result in any mpg or hp. Just looks and sound

There's gains, but nothin you won't really notice except for on a dyno. Somewhere around 10hp/tq and maybe .2 mpg. I haven't noticed any ill effects on either one so nothin if you ask me
