4.3 vortec?

[Aarons72s]

I have 2 4.3l v6 astro safaris. I like them. I think 94 or 95 was the last year for the tbi, z code, engine in them. The 94 is tbi and the 99 is mpi. Truthfully I like the 94 better. Fills and drives like an older truck. I can sit and roast the tires in both of them all day long. The 94 did throw a rod but at 150,000 miles and it is a ex rental car so no real complaints. only cost 2,500 bucks for the dealer to put a new motor in 2003 and havent had a problem since. I agree go with the aftermarket harness, oe one has to much bs to by pass. Correct me if I am wrong but when I looked at one 4.3 out of a vehicle it looked like the motor mounts were further back than the v8 mounts? Hope this helps.
