Exclamation Need Help

I have a 99 Jimmy 4.3 w/ auto trans and a 98 Noma 4.3 ZQ8 5 speed. Of course the noma is way more bad ass but I would like to change that. The Jimmy has blown head gaskets, water pump, and trans and they all need to be replaced or repaired, and for as few bucks as possible. I have read about 4.3 build-ups, LS1 swaps, 6.0 swaps, and others but none really talk about this actual application. I would just like some opinions

Re: Need Help

somewhere on here is a link to a 4.3 buildup with a supercharger that was putting out like 500hp to the wheels, whole deal gonna run a lot like 5gs i think they said, hotrod mag or something like that did it for a write up, it was called the 3/4 350 or something like that

id say for what all youll have to fix id just dump a 350 crate in there and tranny and a new posi rear


if ya just wanna rebuild what ya got swap the auto for a 5sp amd fiz the motor and do some mods to it while its apart, wont be super fast but itll haul a lil butt
