So do they have any perfromance parts for the 4.3 liter? I know they have some small things, but what about superchargers, cams, stuff like that.:confused:

You name it, it's out for the 4.3. I believe some people here might know mach performance since they make stuff for F Bodies, but I'll give you the link anyways. They have everything from turbos to head/cam packages for 4.3's. Not really bolt on stuff but they're the real power adders. You can find bolt on stuff about anywhere.

http://www.machperformance.com Thanks. That is for the s-series trucks, mine is fullsize, the engine compartment is set up different. I dont know if that makes much difference. Oh well i guess I will just have to stay slow.:(

they make a billion parts for the 4.3, it's basically an old SBC with the back 2 pistons gone. they are everywhere. i'm trying to talk my dad into a heads cam intake manifold/injection upgrade for his Sonoma, he wants a blower...i say all of the above.

It's the same motor though. You'd have to call them to see if it would work or not, I'm sure he'd get it to work.

I was into the 4.3 performance back when I had my '95 Fullsize. I had just about all the bolt-ons for it and it ran pretty good. Most of the mods for the s-trucks will work on your fullsize. Things that may be different are CAIs, Chips/Programmers, and Catbacks which are body specific.

I remembered your post when I was talking to The Other Guys headers today. I can get you a set of their headers for your 4.3. They are actually sitting on the shelf waiting for a new home :) Other than that I haven't seen to much. I might be able to have Wester's put a program together that could give you another 20hp (rough estimate for the 4.3).
