I think at that point I would be looking at engines and it would also depend what my financial situation would be.

the 4.3 is fine for most stuff, I even pulled a small boat 18' with one for awhile,  the truck was more squirly as an issue then engine power,   although the 4.3 did struggle on hills, even with, chip, k&N, Exhaust upgrades.

depends what you intend to use it for.  but for basic driving its more then fine.

Thats a pretty good deal on a 96 S10 thats rust-free. 

I get 21MPG highway with my Blazer, which is absolutely great for a 4.3 Vortec...
