There are a ton of aftermarket parts for the 4.3 good little motors, If you have it and have the ambition to do it. I'd say go for it. Its worth a shot.
Be sure to take pics and do a write up so we all can see the progress.
Actually, it belongs to a friend... But, if he uses it, I will definitely take notes.
