A definite must is lots of power! best way to achieve that? Sticker charge it! (add lots of power stickers, NOS, edelbrock, K&N, accel, the list goes on) but the point is you don't actually waste your money on the actual parts, just the stickers, they're cheap.

Also never use graded bolts, the bolts have to be the weak points! always remember that!

My buddy had 4" stacks on his 300 I-6 sounded pretty neat, but that truck was FAR from bein a mall crawler.

We forgot spinners! but people will assume you are the ultimate mall driver, so be sure your skills are up to par. for example, you must be able to do a one wheel peel out of the mall parking lot.

Speaking of spinners. There is a guy around the house that has a Z71. Lift 38" swampers on 20" spinner wheels. I laugh my **** off everytime I see that truck.

Now hold it there. Mall crawler specialist declines this add to the specs.

Reason 1. Stacks are cool even if it is gas.

Reason 2. Check out Todds79 crew build in the louisiana forum. Polished fuel doors look good if done correctly.
