Just did it twice remove fan shroud (7 bolts) unhook pos battery terminal use wrench or wise grips to remove fan. anyway possible increase tension on the serpentine belt to reduce the fan pully slipping as you trun counter clockwise. ake 3/8 rachet put shaft into the belt tensioner counter clockwise and remove serp belt remove hose clamps 2 on top smal hoses large one left bottom you'll get spillage so use basin under the car. 4 bolts hold the pump on I removed the pully direct above the pump and the tension pully to create more room to work remove the fan puuly from the old pump 4 bolts reverse the whole process to replace the new one.

Will the engine and transmission from a 1994 GMC Jimmy S10 SLE 4POINT3 liter vortec motor fit into a 1999 GMC Jimmy SLT?

the simple answer is YES. though, a 94 would be either a t.b.i. system or early vortec. if it is a vortec, the swap shouldn't require a p.c.m. reflash- however if your 94 is a t.b.i. you will need to change the intake and fuel delivery systems to handle the 60 p.s.i. operating pressure for the vortec engine.
