Can one get by with a 3GB 1060 nVidia card to mine zec/zcl/hush? 

yes, I suggest downloading ewbf equihash miner for zcash and of course change the server to zdash or hush .suprnova.cc and the port to I think 4048 in the bat file

you will mine a few hush per day with a 1060

Yah, i'm already mining with  a couple 1070s and a 1080. I was referring to the 3GB part.  I'm unsure of the memory requirements for Equihash.  2GB is not enough for Ethash (or darn close to not being enough).

Thanks for the feedback.

Last time I checked, Ethash needed ~2.2 Gb, so you can still mine it. But Claymore wouldn't give me more than ~24-24.4 mh/s (for an overcklocked 1060 6Gb), while EWBF would reach ~330-340 sol/s. The choice is yours.
