HP ratings would vary as there are several different 4.3 V6 engines that GM made.



I've seen ratings as low as 130, and as high as 197.



As for your claim of beating a 305, that's possible, the 305 stock is a dog, but, beating a 350 V8 i call BS on, simply because your impala is one very heavy car, and the 4.3 is an economy engine at best, built for gas mileage not speed or power...



I had that same engine in a '90 Celebrity, which was considerable lighter in weight then an Impala, and I got spanked more than once by a 350... If you beat one, then you had the wind at your back and were rolling down hill...



as for a performance upgrade then dump the V6 and go with an LS1 engine... You can get a bone yard LS1, the transmission, the wiring, the computer, and still pay less than 2 grand...



Drop that engine and transmission into the impala, and you can smoke just about anything, and still get mid 20's in gas mileage.



I've done this swap myself, and it was by far the best bang for the buck power upgrade I have ever done, to any car I've owned.



It was also a cool looking sleeper.. They never knew what hit them until was already gone...



%26quot;...damn some people slow lol%26quot;



yup that's what i said the last time someone tried to race me with a V6... LOL!Hey can any1 real good about cars tell me how much hp my car has ???..plz thanks?
