Check out Black Cloud for the relief valve.

If you're gonna be running the engine hot you might wanna play it safe and get some gauges ASAP(Pryometer,Boost,Transmission fluid/Oil Temp)

You may want to rethink the K&N filter. There has been a lot of debate here about them and the concensus seems to be that they do not filter quite as well as they should for a diesel. They do let more air through, but oil analysis results shot that its not all its letting through.

Fill in your signature portion with all the details so we know the particulars of your truck. You don't say what year, miles, 4x4, etc. about it. Depending on what you want to use it for, you may want to look at a BTS tranny.
