Hello, first time to your forum. I've seen bits and pieces of great info regarding engine swap option on 1st gen trucks. I just started researching the 2.8 to 3.4 engine swap for my 1985 GMC S-15. Finally realizing the GM HT crate motor is discontinued My motor runs well but is just a bit tired and looking for a bit more power (160HP ish). This truck is a 4 X 4 auto trans extended cab.
From what I've read is my "Plan B" would be to find a 93-95 Camaro 3.4L. Or even buy a remanufactured one? Initial search from engine remans is "nothing available" although that was just one rebuilder.
Can you point me to a thread that describes my options? Truck use is weekend run to Home Depot and one day a week to work. My dad ordered it new back in 1985 and I'm trying to keep it in the family and running well. Cheers.
