With a warm engine and timing light ready (engine running) disconnect the single connector (black and brown wire) located on the passenger side firewall. It sticks out of the main wiring harness. Set the timing by rotating the distributor. Clockwise to ****** the timing and counter clockwise to advance the timing. Lock the distributor in place @ 4 deg. before top dead center. Shut the truck off and reconnect the black and brown wire.

SOURCE: HAVE AN 89 CHEVY 4WD w/ 350 5.7> l. will not go

Has the fuel filter been replaced with the fuel pump or it could be a restriction in the exhaust. In order to check that properly you would need a back pressure gauge and measure back pressure or just disconnect exhaust from the manifolds and drive it around and see if all the power is back.
(IT'S GOING TO BE LOUD) Let me know.

Vaccum hose diagram for 88 chevy truck. I put a 350 motor in my 88 chevy 1500 truck from a 95 suburban. I cant get the throttle body to stop idaling to high. I may need a vaccum line diagram for this motor...

it may not be a vacumn leak from a line,check the throttle shaft for movement,for example,i had a 89 1 ton 350 and my throttle shaft was moving around a lot and in order to keep it from idling high,i had to kick the throttle pedal.But also check the idle air control valve,which is the round sensor on the side of the throttle body.
