I'm doing a swap in a 94 jimmy. Factory the motor is the 4.3 vortec. The problem is the motors on its last leg. (tick-tick-tick-tick) believed to be bottom end possible spun a bearing. Not exactly sure. OK, So I have a 91 4.3 out of a chevy 1500 pick-up that is non-vortec. My plan to just use the block from the 91 -non-, and the rest of the assembly from the vortec motor in the jimmy.
So, my question is ...
Does anyone have any insite into any problems I may run into. My biggest concern is what sensors may need to be changed or even drilled and tapped, due the block being older.
Any help would be greatly appreiciated.
Thanx,
John G.
