Re: TT 4.3 build worth it?
Update, got the 4.3 mostly apart, everything but the harmonic balancer is off the front, for having 174,000 miles im suprised its not worse on the inside
i have to say the cpi plentum is the nastiest thing ive seen in awhile though
also id like to welcome a new member to my third gen family
its a 1983 trans am daytona, oklahoma car, not complete but i traded a 90 mustang with bad frame rot for it, so its all good

You should try to find a used syclone intake... Just port it to match the heads. 4.3's have potential, but it's probably easier to just turbo a V8.

i love the cpi intakes, they look so much cooler then the tbi ones. just saying though that engine is really not clean. someone never changed their air filter

Re: TT 4.3 build worth it?
ill agree the cpi intakes look cool, but as far as functionality in a performance aspect, it will never meet what i need, and what i mean by clean is that when i pulled the manifold off there wasnt 1/4 inch of sludge sitting in there, last 4.3 i rebuilt was so gummed up i was shocked it still ran the way it did
