Just a few things needed to complete a few 'projects', if you have anything that I would be interested in please let me know.....


1.) 4.3L Vortec V6 'W' motor out of a pre-95 Blazer or S-10.....

2.) 1.9L engine and/or auto trans to fit a 93' Escort/Tracer.....

3.) 3.1L V6 'J' motor(calif. emmisions) to fit in a 99' Malibu......

4.) Steering column for a 93' Tempo.....



That's all I can think of for now.....

Thanks

I have the engine at my shop, come and get it I will be here all day, its a 1991 S-10 4.3LTR TBI, is rebuilt, was bored .040 over with Weisco Pistons, has Crane Compucam in it, has about 50 60k mikes on it since rebuild and runs good, I pulled it at my shop and its on an engine stand if you get it today or tomorrow $250.00 I have a local guy trying to talk me down on it, but would rather give it away for $250 to someone else this guy is the cheapest guy around and drives everyone crazy! He even tries to talk the Wal Mart Cashiers down when he is buying stuff there!

Oh yeah its out of a 4X4 Blazer so it has the off-set deep oil pan, and the oil cooling lines and adapter too.

I need a Vortec 4.3L (vin W), the TBI is the 'Z' motor. However, I'm wondering if they can be interchanged, but something is telling me they can't.......

oops sorry didnt read all your thread, but do you have your old engine? whats different is the heads and of course intake. If you have those then this engine bottem end will work.

it's possible justin, but a very pain in the butt task........ heads, intake, some fuel stuff, ECU, speedometer issues, etc...... not worth it

Yes, the whole engine was rebuilt, but has been used for 50k to 60k miles. Its on an engine stand in my shop, I have high power air tools if you want to pull it apart and look at it.
