Default Hello all

Hello everyone, I am new here and just wanted to introduce myself. I own a 68 chevy short wide and an 02 silverado with a 4.8. I have not currently done anything to the silverado but I want to get as much power out of this little v8 as possible without having to purchase a supercharger or turbo system so if anyone has any suggestions I would be happy to hear them. Thanks.

Thanks guys, now when you say tune what exactly do you mean? I've heard a lot about things like nelson tune and others but I have never built a newer generation engine with all the technical stuff. Like I said before, my first truck is a 68 chevy with a 383 stroker.
