Had a 00 silverado with the 4.3liter , was a great truck hauled other trucks with it. Plenty of power. It was totaled by an employee had 262,000 on it. Loved that truck.
the cost of the swap and the longevity of the v6 trans just wouldnt of been worth it. I did some research and its just wouldve been more than i wanted to deal with
if i wanted a direct swap i woulld have to find a work truck style truck with a 4.8 and i just didnt want the truck sitting around while i look for one, plus i also did want anything high mileage!
