94 Z71 4x4


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello everyone, Im new to this site.

I will finally be getting my Dream Truck, A 94 Z71 4x4.

I was wondering if anyone knows the specs on these Vehicles?

Such as power, Torque, MPG Stuff like that? Or where I can find out?

Thanks In advance

Hmm 94' eh. Should be something like this, and everyone feel free to correct what I've got wrong.

 

HP - somewhere around like 220. (non-Vortec motor)

TQ - anyone?

MPG - I get about 16 mpg drivin' around with my 94' 4.3L so probably like 14-15.

 

These are great trucks, good luck. Like I said I have a 94' so I'm pretty familiar with the quarks associated with this year. If you have any questions feel free to drop a PM. :thumbs:

Nice, Very Nice!

I think my dad said it also had some kind of chip installed, Not sure about the Exhaust, But he paid alot of $$$.

 

The MPG is going to be a killer, Im going from a F*rd Taurus Which gets about 20 mpg to a truck that gets 5 MPG less.

 

The truck is like In excellent condition. 88,000 miles. for $7,200.00

 

Thanks for the reply! :thumbs:

Need to know more info to guess fuel mileage

Reg cab or ext. cab?

gear ratio?

 

14-15 may be a little optimistic on a TBI 350. All depends on driving habits though.

94's make 210 hp, and 300 tq. But it might be less becasue those are roller cam numbers and 94's didn't have a roller cam I thought.

 

All I know is my parents 94 burb is really slugish, and my naighbors 97 burb scoots.

I had a '93 Blazer (Tahoe predecessor) with the 350, and to my understanding it was 210hp, not sure of the torque numbers. In the summer time I got 13 or so MPG, 10 in the winter. The power was great, almost better than the '02 1500HD with the 6.0 in it, ofcourse it weighed a little less.

I bought my '94 (non-Z71) new and still have the original GM brochure for the 1994 trucks at home. I'll check out the published numbers tonight.

Thanks to everone who replied.

I think i may have found out a little info...

I think the gears are something like 2.73?

It has a Hyper Chip...

It also has some kinda of aftercap? or something like that Exhaust.

    • It is possible to add your own 12v outlet to your truck.  Check out this video:   I verified via GM Upfitters that pin 31 is the same on the 1500 trucks.  The wire is GM part number 84779405.   You can get the GM 12v outlet from Amazon  https://www.amazon.com/Genuine-Accessory-Receptacle-25774623-13549530/dp/B0F1H9YRGF EWAY 12 Volt Power Adapter for GM   https://www.amazon.com/EWAY-Chevrolet-Silverado-Cigarette-Ignition/dp/B0915RRW6Q/ref=sr_1_1?   I just haven't figured out a good place to put the 12v outlet in my truck.   Some people are getting USB-C to 12V adapters  https://www.amazon.com/WYMECT-Cigarette-Lighter-Socket-Adapter/dp/B0F87WNQKB/ref=sr_1_1_sspa? Not sure if they provide the correct amperage that a device like a tire inflator would need.  
    • Thanks; I looked there a few minutes, and I think I can find something. I really never looked there, as I thought it was stuff like PTO/aftermarket bodies/accessories like snow plows.
    • This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.  
    • 2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.  
    • Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉
