Will a 97 350 vortec engine operate with 92 tbi with 92 electronics?

With the Throttle Body injection and a TBI intake from Edelbrock for vortec heads yes it will work. If you mean using the vortec injection with the TBI electronics then no it will not work.


Will intake from 87 tbi fit vortec?

No because the ports on a tbi head are different than the ports on a vortec head, vortec heads need a vortec intake however you can switch a carburated engine to a tbi engine because the heads are the same


Will a 1999 vortec intake bolt to a 1996 throttle body injected 350 block?

NO it will not. You would need the heads off the vortec engine to make it all work. The 96 that you are talking about should be a VORTEC engine already from the factory. But you may have an early 96 and that is why it is a TBI engine. That was the year they switch to a vortec. 96 TBI no such animal,TBI OBD2 no


Can you replace a pre 1996 tbi engine with a vortec long block and use your tbi intake and tbi?

you can as long as you use your TBI heads if you want to use the vortec heads with TBI you will need a special intake manifold or a carb manifold with a adapter to mount your throttle body to the carb manifold heres some more info TBI heads will mount to the vortec block TBI intake manifold has 12 bolts vortec intake manifold has 8 bolts

Can a 350 from a 1988 gmc truck replace a 1996 Tahoe 350?

The 88 engine is a TBI / Throttle Body injection engine. I don't know the month of 1996 when they changed to the vortec engine fuel system, But I believe it was in late 1996. You should know if the 1996 engine is a TBI engine or a vortec engine if you have Sean it. So if it is a TBI engine then you have no problems, Put it in there and hook everything up and your good to go. Now if it's a vortec engine you have problems, None of the wireing will hook up to the 88 engine sensors. And the 96 computer will not run the 88 engine. And the fuel pump in the 96 Tahoe has to much fuel pressure for a TBI engine. You can not put the vortec fuel system/ intake manifold on the 88 engine because none of the intake bolts will match the heads or vise verse. You will be opening a can of worms. You need to go back with a vortec engine if that is whats in the Tahoe now.

Can a 305 intake out of a Chevy custom deluxe fit a vortec engine?

Probably. But you may need to enlarge the 4 center bolt holes, as the angle is a little different. NEW ANSWER: That is TRUE when you install a TBI / Throttle body injection intake on an early modal carbureted engine / set of heads. You can't drill the intake bolt holes out to make it fit on a vortec engine / HEADS. Reason being is because the bolt holes in the vortec heads and intake are straight up and down.


How do you convert tbi to carb?

tbi engine top end is different from carb engine top end. on a carburated engine, the intake and heads use 90 degree angles for intake mounting bolts. on a tbi engine, the intake and heads use 75 degree angles for intake bolts. you can choose one of these three options: entire new engine. intake manifold designed for tbi heads but utilizes a carb mounting flange on top or tbi manifold to spread bore or square bore adapter
