View Full Version : 2.8L to 4.3L engine swap
i need to know some info about swapping from a 2.8L TBI to a 4.3L CPI v6. I need to know what all is needed to make this swap, problems, what has to be changed out, and where to get parts, such as wiring harnesses, fuel lines, etc. If anyone has done this or knows how to do it please let me know.

I would go to the wreckers, or search craigs list, for a doner vehicle. your gonna need almost everything...engine, mounts, wiring harness, fuel lines.. rad might be different.. dunno about the trans.
Someone that knows more will chime in...give it some time.

Rad is different, motor mounts, exhaust, trans, wiring harness, ECM (more correctly the PROM). Its a lil easier going to a 4.3 tbi but with all the mods you are gonna have to do you might as well do the same exact mods and drop a fuel injected v8 down in it.
