96 S10 4.3 in a 96 C1500

Will a 4.3L from a 96 S10 swap without any drastic changes or problems into a 96 C1500 with a 4.3? Is there any real difference bsides the air flow?

Thanks

there really shouldn't be. the wiring and computers should be the same. as far as bolting in, it will bolt in easy. 4.3 is 4.3 whether s10 or truck.

Yes. You may need to swap your intake, exhaust manifolds, and the accessories on the front of the engine.
