Hello to all!!
I have currently acquired a 1984 2.8L S-10. The engine was seized and I am looking to do an engine swap on the truck. I have found a long block (2.8L) but it is for a 1985 model with a different Vin code. My truck is a Vin code B and this is for a Vin code R.
My question I have is, will this long block work with the carburetor and all of my accessories on the truck. I have done some research and I see that in 1985 the 2.8 was converted to a multi port fuel injection with larger valves. Will the carb on the 84 model truck be able to supply the correct amount of fuel to the engine?
I am a completed newb to this truck and these engines but I do have some experience building and swapping engines in cars........
Any info would be great and I thank you in advance for the help!!!!
