The truck manifolds and spacer should fit. The only thing to really watch out for is what year block your getting them off of. if its from an 87 down (I think) all of the bolts will go straight in. If its 87 up(again I think) the middle two bolts on both sides will be angled. You can still use them but you'll have to cut in the right holes.

Good luck,
Mike

the manifolds for car and truck are the same if you stick to the pre 87 and 87 and after rule. You can make a pre-87 manifold fit if you don't mind taking a dremel or drill to the center bolt holes. They just need to be angled a bit

trucks didn't have TBI before '87. '87 was a transition year I believe to phase them in.

True. I was only thinking of the bolt hole orientation when I said that. Hope I didn't send anyone on a hunt for a 1985 TBI manifold...
