Re: At least its not a LS

purple paint and a V6...not common. But that title is a bait-and-switch if it is another 350, or 305, or 454, for that matter. The 4.3 is a rare swap here, but not worthwhile, and belongs in the V6 section anyway. Fords don't fit, Mopars aren't much better, V10 swaps never get done, Pontiacs have their own sticky and are too old, everything else is rice. So what's the plan? A V-12?
