Re: Decoding a vin #

Ok, that suks. It brings up another question though. Will the throttle body/computer, etc. work on a 350? I've heard yes, and I've heard no. This 87 is a parts truck that I was planning to rob the engine/fuel injection from to put in my 85. I'll have to find a 350 now, but still want to use the injection.
Thanks for the info on the vin!
