We do not have any cross reference books. Call any salvage yard that handles GM, they can tell you the years that will fit.

Chevy made at least five different engines for pickups in 1989, and with a lot of accessory options. Check this link and select your pickup and engine size. When you get the listing of belts, if you see a small camera icon in the left column, click on it and you will see the diagram of the routing.

How do you connect the electric choke on a 350 Chevy engine. I am using a Holley 650 4bbl carburetor

u need new valve guides and valve guide seals, also do a leak down down test on the rings

The 89 truck uses a cable it is not a magnetic pick up so there is an inner and ottter cable and you can buy from any parts store. inner cable runs 10 dollars a fitted inner and outter cable is about 425.00 and is the way I would go.

don't know for sure but my 98 had simmilar problems and it ended up being the ignition switch,not the key switch but the actual ign switch.worth a try.
