I do admit I am hard on my vehicles!! lol..But with a Toyota your options are alot more open!!!
No the 4.3 is not the best engine.
It's less fuel efficent and less powerful then a vortec, but simpler.
I'm shooting for lightish and simple.

I want a TBI and I want V6.
350 is heavier, of course so is the 4.3 v6 the 2.4 I had.

I plan on rebuilding the motor before I use it as well.

Oh and about the 4.3 not being fuel efficent, I think it'll be more fuel effiecient then my Dual carbed 2.4L 4Cyl. That thing was a pig.

turbo civic
You obviously have no grasp of tourque and large wheels or 4x4ing.
