Re: 350 tbi years
I'm pretty sure 87-94 tbi motors are all the same, but just make sure you get the cpu if you get the engine and trans from a truck with the 4l60e or 4l80e trans, they are electronically controlled unlike the 700r4.

Re: 350 tbi years
You might have a couple of minor differences, like the TPS is a different design in the later years, and they switched to serpentine belt drive and accessories around '90 or so.

Re: 350 tbi years
I am pretty sure '87 TBIs had the old dual belt setup and a couple other differences. Same as '95 I think they had a few more upgrades then the other years. That being said the '87-'95 350 TBIs should all work for you. If you do get a whole donor truck do make sure to pull the computer and everything to go with it. Good luck.

Re: 350 tbi years
It's best to get it anyway just incase. Like stated above there are small differences in the engines over the years.
