Oxygen sensors, MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) sensor, IAT (Intake Air Temperature) sensor, ECT (Engine Coolant Temperature) sensor, TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) all these and more send information to the PCM (Powertrain Control Module) to control the fuel mixture.
The PCM (Powertrain Control Module) controls the fuel mixture with information it receives from various sensors.
No they will not.
No it is not even close.
The idle is control by the idle air control motor from outputs from the Engine Control Module.
No it will not. The 96 vortec has a crankshaft sensor and alot of other sensors on the engine that is required so the transmission will work that will not interchange with the 92 engine. Even the fuel pump would have to be changed. You must put a VORTEC engine back in the 96 so everything will work correctly.
The knock sensors yes there are two are located on either side of the motor (4.3LTR Vortec) below the heads in the center area of the engine block. There are a place for another sensor just above where the knock sensor goes but these are for other sensors.

No it will not. Those 2 engines have a total different type of fuel system and sensors.
The vortec has bigger pistons
Look at the intake manifold. A vortec engine has 8ea. All the others have 12ea.
The 2001 model of the Light-Duty Silverado 1500, had an option of four engine sizes; a 6.0L Vortec V8 engine, a 4.3L Vortec V6, a 4.8L Vortec V8 or a 5.3L Vortec V8. The Heavy-Duty 1500HD comes with three engine options, these are 6.0L Vortec V8, 8.1L Vortec V8 and a 6.6L Duramax V8
Yes you just have to put on your intake manifold off the newer engine, change over all of your sensors and put in the distributor off of the newer engine.
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.
