New (not rebuilt) 4.3 v-6 power plant
This is a new zero mile 96 4.3 vortec. It was a test motor from g.m.. G.m. Put less than 1/2 a shift (4 hours) on it on a dyno. They kept all of the fuel inj. Stuff off of it. Apparently that was what they were testing. Anyway... I got it & put in a new pertronix H.E.I.., a perfomer alum. Intake & a 500 cfm electric choke model carb.(all new) I put on a used serpetine belt set up, used air conditioning compressor (NOT THE ONE IN THE PIC... A STOCK G.M.) & had the alternator rebuilt as a 100 amp one wire setup.(it had no brackets or pullys on it when I got it)kinda went backwords to old school. It has a 4wd oil pan on it. This was for my 72 short fleet "NO HOLDS BARRED- NOTHING BUT THE BEST-MONEY PIT" project, but I'm going in a diesel direction. (& I PAINTED IT ORANGE... ALL CHEVY MOTORS SHOULD BE ORANGE, UNLESS THEY ARE A DIESEL) I need $1500 for it (alot less than I have in it) picked up in somerset kentucky 42501. G.M.s been putting these motors in full sized trucks for years, so I figured it would push my little 72 just fine. Thought I'd give you guys a shot at it before it went on craigs list or ebay. IT'S A WHOLE LOT BETTER DEAL THAN ONE OF THOSE MADE IN MEXICO CRATE MOTORS. Thanks John

Re: New (not rebuilt) 4.3 v-6 power plant
I've got over $750 just in the new 500 c.f.m. Electric choke Edelbrock carb, Proform billit hei dist, Edelbrock perfomer intake, Taylor plug wires & Bosch platinum plugs, serpentine belt assy., brackets & pullys & ANOTHER $100 just to have the alternator rebuilt as a 100 amp one wire. Parts for this are expensive..... like big block expesive. I pulled the oil pan to check the bearings & crank, & valve covers to inspect the rockers. I didn't scrimp on anything. It would make a great power plant for a 67-72.... except it's bound to get better fuel milliage than a 350. Someone ought to jump.

Re: New (not rebuilt) 4.3 v-6 power plant
THIS WOULD MAKE A GREAT MOTOR FOR ANY STREET ROD, NOT JUST OLD PICKUPS. IT'S COMPLETE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF A SERPENTINE BELT, CARB. TO PAN & MANIFOLD TO MANIFOLD. I HAVE TROUBLE BELIEVING SOMEONES NOT SNAPPING THIS UP. TTT ONE LAST TIME & THEN IT GOES ON CRAIGS LIST & EBAY. (AT A HIGHER PRICE I MIGHT ADD) JOHN

Re: New (not rebuilt) 4.3 v-6 power plant
IT TAKE 2 WIRES TO HOOK THIS UP. ONE 12 VOLT HOT, IGNITION TO HEI & ONE FROM THE ALTERNATOR TO THE BATTERY FOR CHARGING. PRETTY DARN SIMPLE. I'LL EVEN PALLETIZE,BOX WITH PLYWOOD, & LOAD IT IF YOU'LL PAY FOR MATERIALS & ARRANGE TRUCK FREIGHT.

Re: New (not rebuilt) 4.3 v-6 power plant
364 VIEWS & NOT A SINGLE NIBBLE... I'M BEWILDERED. IT'S NEW HONEST.. THE VALVE COVER & OIL PAN GASKETS ARE REUSABLE, & WE'LL PULL EM OFF FOR INSPECTION WHEN YOU GET HERE.
