4.3 in WT

Post by green02crew »

I know there was another thread on this a while back but to do with one of the work vans and GM putting the 4.3 back into a vehicle, but I couldn't find the thread. Anways, I thought GM was done w/ the 4.3? I was browsing their site and they had it in the WT Silverado as an option. Wouldn't the aluminum V6 used in the Malibu be a better option?

The 4.3 is still a pretty good engine which is why GM is still using it in some vehicles. It would have been nice to see the 4.3 offered in an all aluminum version or at least with aluminum heads. :? The direct injected V6 in the new Camaro with over 300 hp is probably the best V6 GM has ever made. 8)
