*Motor/driveline/electric
-5th gear swap if possible
The truck will already have a 5th gear, you mean 6th gear?

-electric water pump
I looked into this but the cost outweighs the possible gains, maybe over a very very long time it might.

-gas mileage chip
There is no real chip that will help. You can get the truck tuned




Stage 5:

-plexi glass windows
I would check on these, I know in some places they aren't legal on the road.

For the ease of electronics and such, i would look for a 98-03 S10. Easier to tune, ultragauge/scangauge works. Much easier for future mods.

I'm contemplating getting an underdrive pulley set up. That + the removal of the clutch fan would make it easier to rev.

Also thinking about ditching the A/C in favor of ventilated seats. I won't make the decision until i test them out.

I plan on getting a T56 6 speed transmission to be swapped in. I do all city driving, so i can get shorter gears but still be able to cruise.
