V-8 swap in a 93

Postby 17twist [OP] » May 7th 2008, 10:50pm

I know you guys say stick with the same year,but I got a friend of mine with a 87 tbi motor for free.Coming out of an 87 suburban.Since I am new here I could really use all the help I can get.Oh I almost forgot I can scalp anything I want as far as computer, wiring,anything I need.I am going to do a complete rebuild on the motor,so maybe a few go fast goodies.Thanks for the help am looking forward to starting the build.
Thanks Rich

Sounds like a great friend! Make sure you take LOTS of pictures to document the swap and rebuild. That's how all this great info is preserved for all to benefit. :mrgreen:
