Default Power Increase without supercharger



<IMG src=smileys/smiley16.gif border="0">Looks like I'm the newbie from Illinois! Have a question!</P>


Have a 99' S-10 with the 4.3cu V6 and automatic&gt;Purchased used with 46,000 miles last October and have donelittle to itsince.</P>


Question: What can I do to put a little more ZIP into the acceleration without ransoming my first born? Since the 4.3 V6 started out as a v-8, has anyone ever shaved the heads and installed a modified cam? The shift points will require resetting but that is a given!</P>


Let me know your ideas!</P>


Thanks,</P>

i am always a fan of something like heads and cam....power adders like that cause elss wear and tear on the engine, although when installed correctly, forced induction isnt that bad on an engine..</P>
