Before and after..... I like my 4.3 but next time I'll use a V8. It has the power but has to work too hard for it when your pushing snow with the axles or trying to pull a hill in the sand. You have to watch your gear reduction with a auto trans tho. I had to pull out my 4.7's because the brakes wouldn't hold it in low on level ground at a idle and I didn't like shifting to neutral every time I wanted to stop.
