Need more hp!!
I've been looking to get a little more hp out of my 4.8, but I don't want to take the forced induction road quite yet. I was lookin into a cam or maybe new heads or a port & polish. Only problem are the damn California emissions. The only cams I can find for a 2000 Silverado 4.8L are all not CA legal. Any help or other upgrade ideas would be appreciated.

Re: Need more hp!!
I'm a bit confused??? When you say no forced air, I hope you're not refering to a cold air intake system. Doing that would make more sense than messing with the cam or heads. I'm in CA. I agree emissions can be a &!+(# here, but there are ways around it...dual exhaust, cold air intake and a good tune!! These can do a lot.

Forced induction aka supercharger. I've already got the basic mods (air intake, headers, exhaust, programmer, etc..its all down there in the sig)
