Spent some time today checking out used Colorado/Canyons. How'd I miss them? Too new I suppose. I'd like to find a used 2.9, 4X4, Standard trans, extended cab, and locking rear end. What are the best engine years?

Beater the 2900 started off as a 2700. When they went bigger it got all the upgrade the late model 4200 got - same engine family. So any 2900 is a good motor.

A 2900 with a turbo at 8 psi would be really close to 250 HP....

The comp eliminator guy are making >400HP NA with these engines. Mind you they don't have to run them for long.


51 GMC 4.2 turbo
Can't solved today's problems using the same technology/thinking that created them
