My car was a 4.3 Monte TBI and put a 5.7 in it. Runs great. What do you need to know?

You mean the actual throttle body unit itself?

Can the wiring from a s10 w/4.3 tbi be used in a gbody? Plug and play?

If you have an 85 Elco 4.3 TBi, why is S-10 wiring involved at all. The answer is most likely yes with minimal changes but I thought this was a motor swap?

I'm not the op,just jumped in and hijacked the thread as it contained some of what I would like to accomplish if possible on a elco of mine
