Re: 2.8 redline
Mine runs at about 1000-1100 rpm at idle and driving it gets maybe up to 2500 at the highest (just cruising around town). I've got an 86 s10 2.8 TBI, I'd imagine it's pretty much the same setup.

Re: 2.8 redline
It may, but when I get it to that point I start fearing for its life hehe.. The engine is in pretty decent shape, but it's still not exactly brand new either.
