3.55 or 3.73

the newer 4.6 does have more power than the 5.8...but it's in a heavier truck than the 82-97 models
If you are going to do the gear swap, I really recommend you skip the 3.73 gears and go straight to 4.10. A 3.73 gearset is so close to the 3.55 set, that IMO you will be wasting a pretty big chunk of money for very limited gains.
that will do 2 things for you. It'll help your towing capacity and let the truck do the job alot easier with less wear/tear on the drivetrain...and the best part is that it will make your truck a new animal
Just some food for thought
