I have a 2002 GMC Sierra 1500 with a 4.8L, 4L60E, 3.23 Rear Axle K&N Air Intake and a 1-2 Magna flow. Truck is starting to feel slower and I was Thanking of getting my hands dirty. I would like to have about 400HP or more but keep it a daily driver (about 60 a day 7 days a week). Any Suggestions would be appreciated
Welcome aboard. You are in the right place, be prepared to spend a couple of bucks. Well worth it though.

The difference between winning and losing, is having a 2nd stage.
You have an extended cab with the smallest V8 and high gears. You'll need a motor swap (or full bolt-ons and N20), trans mods, higher stall converter, lower gears, locker, and all that goes with it to get usable 400 at the wheels.
Hi and Welcome to Ls1

if you wanna be quicker, new gears are a must. a set of 4.10s with a locker or LSD will be a good choice
00 FRC - just top end, exhaust, and a hot-air intake

you dont need a motor swap, your 4.8 will be just fine.

Gears, tune/cam, shift kit/stall/corvette servos, ditch manual fans for electrics, UD pulley, etc, etc
blown transmissions are about as useful as 97% of the guys on this forum
The sucky 4.8 will be fine with a shot of juice as per above.
put the smack on it
