hey i just bought a 1999 olds bravada and it has a 4.3 vortec v6 in it with 97000 miles on it im looking to put a nice exhaust system on it and a cold air intake to make it sound mean ... Any suggestions on ware to fynd a good exhaust and intake system for a good low price?

I'd say summit is your best bet, they usually have the best prices, you might also coonsider finding a muffler shop that can build you a 2.5 or 3 inch exhaust, it would probably be cheaper that way. They make some pretty crazy power out of those 4.3s, this samurai place has one with a 4.3 swap that's got 500 hp. http://www.suzukiconversion.com/sale.htm# it's the blue and yellow one on the bottom of th page.

you could always go the lingenfelter route, if I remember correctly a few years ago they stuffed a turbo 427 into one of those. Didn't run well though.

yea thats sounds fun .. but i dont thinnk i got the money for a lenigfelter Engine haha i picked the truck up for 4350 and its a good condtion i just want to give it an Edge with a lil more power and tourqe

~~the bravada and blazer are the same trucks right ?? could i possibly go to like jegs . com and buy parts for a 1999 blazer 4door and have those parts werk wit it???

i'd look into the s10 forums to see what kind of cheap or free mods you can do first then go from there.. bravada's aren't made to be rockets but with the awd and the right stuff can be pretty fun:thumb:

I know of a few people that have done motor swaps on these trucks.. anywhere from 383 strokers to turbo'd 4.3's just have to figure out how much you want to invest money wise and time wise first before you start throwing parts on it.

Is that the same awd system as was in the syclones?

robz95xj · 18 Dec 2006, 07:09 pm

Yes but different internally and the transfer case is different

i dont think the syclone and blazer/jimmy/bravada awd systems are the same considering that the syclone/typhoon were pretty well built... heres your site though http://www.s10forum.com/forum/index.php? also i know a few people that put superchargers on 4.3s and get a decent amount of power..
