i thought that 4.3 liters had about 140-190 horsepower!!!

so if a 4.3 has only 140 hp...or even 190hp..and my 22r has over 175...and weighs a few hundred pounds less..why is everyone putting them in toyotas?? that would be stupid....according to chevrolet:


"equipped with the 4.3-liter V-6 engine, rated at 190 horsepower and 250 lb.-ft. of torque. The five-passenger Blazer has, with the rear seat upright, almost 30 cubic feet of cargo room. Folding the rear seat forward opens up..... "    so i was thinking torque when i comented earlier, so given those numbers, and what aaron has done and is planning on doing, i think a safe est. would be 215- 225hp, 260-280 ftlbs. tq.


which again makes me wonder why people do this swap seeing as its not all that difficult to make a 22r produce 200 hp or close to it, i have owned one that was still very streetable at nearly 200hp and weighed alot less than a 4.3.......


regardless, good job aaron, and that thing better be in the truck this weekend!!!
dont make me come down there jr.
