i know. I'm using "bolt on" as a figure of speech.(meaning that the operation shouldn't have any major issues) If you're not going to post something useful, then don't comment.
Dude...you're only freakin' question was....
If I where to go this route, it should just bolt on with few issues, correct?
...and I answered it.
Had you asked some additional, more astute questions, I'd have been able to offer more information.
Converting to from 2xTBI to TPI is definitely not a bolt on.
In addition to the information above in the post by "vetteoz", You'll need:
>A different ECM and calibration to go with the engine you're installing.
>A different wiring harness which matches the engine you are installing and I mean the entire engine controls harness from the firewall to every sensor and actuator on the new engine for the model year in question.
>A different interior wiring harness from the firewall across the car to the ECM
>A different fuel pump
>Different fuel plumbing
>Different air filter assembly.
>Possibly some different coolant hoses
>If the new engine is out of a Z51, you'll probably need oil cooler plumbing.
>If the engine is out of a Z51, you may want the aux. cooling fan and harness
>You may need a different hood, but I'm not 100% sure on that. Seems to me the 84 hoods had less clearance due to the cold air ducting unique to the 2xTBI setup. That ducting was not present in 85-86.
In reading your additional comments, I have to tell you with the attitude you bring to the CAC you may not last long here. You might want to take a deep breath and consider that your 15 total CAC posts so far don't give you much standing when you start acting sort of arrogant.
