What V6 lifters did you ask for? The 4.3 is a 90* V6 and really 3/4 of a 350.

RACE ON!!!

The 3.8 was originally a Buick engine. I think you need them for a 60* "Chevy" engine. Check out the lifters for a 2.8L (173 CID) engine. Dan, Twinnie, Ben, or one of the others that have done the conversion, should be able to tell you, for sure.

RACE ON!!!
