I have a 1985 s10 pickup with the 2.8 V6. I cannot get it to run right. Truck idles at 600-850 rpm, bouncing rapidly between those numbers. Eventually, it gets too choppy and dies. Sounds like it has a miss (or a fat cam, which it does not), but infrared shows all manifold runners operating at...

Old man had this performance Buick v6 intake manifold and 390 holley carburetor setup laying around and I was planning on just running the carb but I'm curious if the manifold will work (with work) on the 2.8v6. If anyone has pictures of the under side of stock intake manifold so I can compare...

I've got an 83 with the 2.8 v6 that I want to swap to a 350 small block. I've got the engine. A 350 4 bolt main. I've been digging in the forums and can't find any thing so I'm asking here. What all parts do I need for the swap other than the engine?

So this might be a dumb question, but I’ve exhausted all of my internet search options. I want to cam my 2.8 s10, but I don’t know someone that can tune something this old. So I basically want to run a self leading EFI setup on a carb manifold. What exactly do I need to do to make this happen?

Hi everybody, I just bought an 83 4x4 with the 2.8 v6 and it's in surprisingly good condition. I did have some questions though. Would it be worth it to upgrade the carb? Cold mornings require quite a bit of gas to get it started, although I haven't tried any carb cleaners yet. Also, does...
