    chevy TBI

    ok, time for an actual tech question

    Whats the first and last year that GM used TBI on its 1/2 ton and up v8's? and were there any significant changes throughout the run?

    They were introduced in '87. Half-tons stopped using them in 1995 when Vortec was introduced, but I think some 3/4 - 1 ton trucks and vans still used TBI, but I'm not sure when they stopped using them.

    1996 marked the switch between TBI and Vortec engines. Vortec engines made it into all GM trucks at that point.

    So its 1987-1995 for the TBI motors, with no significant changes along the way.
    Just when you though it was safe to go back in the water...
