Going from a 4.3 to a V8, you're going to feel more power if you go with any of the Gen3 engines, even the 4.8L will have one hundred more hp.

the 4.8 isnt worth the money IMO. i used to race them when i had the 4.3 and i could stay right even with a stock one. 01thunder has a nice 4.8, but he has tons of mods. 100HP seems a lil high for the difference. and if it does have 100 more HP, the weight evens it out quite a bit.

Okay, here&#39;s you some more information for your wealth of knowledge learned from reading.... the 1992 4.3L V6 had 160 HP and the 2000+ 4.8L V8 has 270 HP. He won&#39;t gain 100 HP with the 4.8L but he will gain 110 HP&#33; Do you feel smarter now?

and again even at 90 more horsepower, i still ran neck and neck with the stock ones, and all i had was no cats and a 40 series flow dumped. it would also run neck and neck with a dodge ext cab with the 360 in it(2001 model).
