Is it the 4.3 Typhoon/Cyclone V6?
No. The new 4.3 is a completely different engine than he old 4.3!
x2. The Typhoon/Syclone engine was a turbocharged and specially built older generation 4.3. Ironically it was rated at 5 hp LESS than the new 4.3, just 280 hp. I think that it was drastically underrated as evidenced by its 0-60 and 1/4 times. 4.3 seconds 0-60 and a mid 13 second 1/4 in an almost 4000 lb vehicle takes a lot more than just 280 flywheel horsepower, probably at least 350 according to online calculators.
