Horsepower increases at your age will result in big tire expenses and probably a couple broken drive train parts. Horsepower also seems to attract the law for younger drivers. At 62 years old I have figured out if I own a vehicle that will roast tires I will get myself in trouble. How much self control do you have? I had use of a Corvette for a year due to the owner loosing his license, I found myself doing 100 mph in a 40 zone one night and gave it back to him before I got in trouble. I am wheeling a very similar truck as you and find the 4.3 has plenty of pep but not enough to get stupid with.
