dont have the money to body drop it. lol bags are really pushin it with my money anyway lol... and i found i nitrous kit for tbi for $602 from Jeg's. i think that would be awesome, what else should i do? pistons and rods cams and intake manifold?
shit u can get a damn near whole bag kit for 600 bucks...
If your going to keep the 4.3 (which obviously your set on and somewhat understandably so) at LEAST ditch the TBI. Seriously, I've had it, Ive hated it. Its worthless and doesnt flow for crap. If you're going to spray it just get a universal kit and adapt it to fit your app. You could save even more money by buying a used kit. Why spend 600 when you could easily get the same performance for half that and put the money towards other things.

i wanted to get rid of the tbi anyway... i wanted to switch it to carb. with an eldelbrock intake and holley carb... any cfm suggestion?

i figured that big of a carb on a pretty much stock v6 would be overkill? and what all would i need to convert it?

well i want to but i just wanted a mild cam/ carb/ intake at first... then maybe pistons and rods and set it up for nitrous? what would be the best setup for everything???
The best setup would be lots of compression, a sizable cam, clean up the heads, HEI with fair internals, all the spray you can throw at it, 500-600 CFM carb and any cheap intake manifold you can find (at 600 CFM there arent too many manifolds that will hinder you lol). While you have the pistons out you could junkyard some SBC rods, machine and shotpeen em them throw em. Thats about your best your bet without an expensive MPFI setup or a bunch of custom stuff.
EDIT: Aside from goin turbo, of course.
