The GM 4.3 is about as solid as they come. I even preferred these over the older I6 equivalents.
Just to be clear, you are talking about/comparing to, the OLD GM I6, not the legendary 300 ci I6 from the Ford early days...right?

I'm talking about any and all light duty I6 gas engines including the slant six, legendary status or not.
Just so you know the original 4.3 was basically a Chevy 350 excluding 2 cylinders and was originally offered with a 4 barrel carb and was the first of the Chevy engines to have the vortec designed heads.

Well thanks for clearing that up. While broad/sweeping statements are often not the most accurate, a forum is a collection of opinions, and others experience. I agree the Vortec V-6 was a good engine, likely one of the best V6s IMO.
