if i have a blown 85 22re, what years of 22re's will bolt right in? i have heard that there is a difference in the injectors, heads, etc depending on the year. so what can i use, and if i can use a different year is there anything i would have to reuse (injectors?) any help would be appreciated, thanks, burke
 
Any 22re should bolt in. The injectors are different by the plugs.

The deck height on a 22r is taller, having a different timing chain cover etc. You could swap any 22re and bolt your intake and reuse your injectors.
 
there are soem differences in the exhaust port shapes too (older ones round, vs pear shaped), but if you're talking about swapping teh whole thing, it dosn't matter - any injected motor for another injected version. wiring etc is the same.
 
thanks a lot, this is good info. i had never been cool enough to afford a fuel injected truck before, so i am fairly ignorant on the subject. anyone have a good 22re for a reasonable price?-burke
