I have the heads and intake that could make that happen real easy. I know where there is some assembled short blocks that could be had real cheap that ran in the 8's at more weight than that.

Tim Cole (Comp Cams) has a V6 powered Corvette Super Stock car that runs mid 8 second ET's.

Adger Smith at one time had a very fast V6 Camaro.

So, yeah, it can be done.

It depends on if you are talking racing v-6 engine or a factory installed v-6.

A split pin 4.3 crankshaft won't go 10.90 very many times. A common pin, odd fire crank, would be what you would use. So the answer is a production 4.3 isn't a good choice.

Andy Manna had his record setting V6's for sale a short time ago.
