In a straight sure...but the cornering is gone...in my conversion handling is retained...and you wouldn't know from looking at the outside that there was a 4.3l vortec under the hood...

indeed. The 4.36's and 3.8's are great engines. One of the few great things produced by GM in the 90's+

The cool thing about the 4.3 is that everything that fits a 350 small block that is not v6 specific will fit on a 4.3... which means tons of performance parts... my pistons, timing set , springs, valves, pushrods, water pump, carb, roller rockers... all small block Chevy...
