The TBI (throttle body injection) system used on the Blazer's standard 5.7 liter V8 had longer throttle shaft bearings, new throttle return springs, and improved fuel mixture distribution. The 5.7 liter V8 also had new heavy-duty intake valves and powdered metal camshaft sprockets.
A unique intake manifold that used the 48 mm (1.9 in) twin-bore throttle body from the 5.7L TPI Corvette engine was used on the engine's top end. [9] The turbocharged 4.3 L (262 cu in) was last used in the GMC Typhoon in the 1993 model year. The engine produced 280 hp (209 kW) at 4400 rpm and 360 lb⋅ft (488 N⋅m) of torque at 3600 rpm.
