4.3 V6 project
#22
Any V6? You are aware the 3800 Turbo was putting out almost 300 HP and up to 400 with light mods back in 1986. 300 Hp can be made NA in a common 3800 II with off the shelf Cam and the original parts with upgraded fastener. I have known several guys that tried to get their 4.3 fast and none them where satisfied that is why there a 1000’s V8 S10 trucks out there and 4.3 are dirt cheap. A series III 3800 5 speed would be a nice setup in a light 3rd gen. Since GM put a 3800 in the 3rd gen all the hardware is available Again not based on saving money, To date I am unaware of any motor cheaper to “make fast” then a SBC. Heck you can buy a 383 kit for under $500, try getting 450 Ft/lbs of torque out of any V6. That will drain a collage fund real quick
you did say ANY v6
