    I have a 94 fullsize pickup with a 4.3.

    I was curious to know if a steering box from a zq8 2001 s-10 would bolt right up?

    Also, on the syclone/typhoon engines, could I swap exhaust manifolds onto my 4.3 to add a turbo?

    thanks Nick

    you could use the turbo stuff off a sy/ty but they have mpfi engines versus your tbi so the engine management will be different. i've seen a couple blow through tbi turbo setups in the past.

    highly doubtful on the steering box, i've got an s10 box and a fullsize box in the garage and they are significantly different looking. now - most gm stuff (mid and fullsize cars, s10's) use the same 3 bolt pattern to hold the box to the frame - not sure on the 88+ fullsize pickups. the pickup box has a rather long shaft coming down to the pitman arm so while the s10 box may bolt up it might bone up the geometry or require a custom pitman arm.
