the shortblock has little to do with emissions. with bolt ons, stock cam or FI grind witth little overlap, and tune you could see 450 smog legal rwhp. just make sure the blower has a carb number, i believe vortech has one.

to make any good power n/a you need LT's, heads, cam, some compression, !cats, all which are detrimental to smog. sure you can get a smog grind cam, carb approved shorties, high flow cats, heads, ect but by the time your done with that you'd be lucky to be near the 400rwhp mark and you've already spent thousands. thousands which could of gone to a blower and tune.

oh, and just for the record my car is n/a and not smog legal
