yer right of course but i do gotta nasty little 262ci v6
there was a small pic and paragraph in HOT ROD about a couple who r building a 6 cylinder i think it was a chevy but i dont really remember. i have no intrest in 6 cylinders but i can see why people might consider building them. hey more power to them they still get to enjoy the hot rod scene and they can actually afford to drive their cars lol
the reason i like the 4.3 so much is that they use 350 parts most of the time.such as pistons berings and other parts.granted cams are a little more expensive but comp cams will grind anything ya need or want for the same price as one off the self.i have mine in a 79 MGB,and boy does it run,hell i can even put a 454 tbi on it if i have the manifold bored out.im also running a 4L60 tranny!neddless to say its kinda quick.
Its really about SOUND! SOUND! SOUND! SOUND! did I forget to mention Sound? :cool:Quote:
