IIRC only the 85s were carbed.

1985's weren't carbed but had throttle body fuel injection. I had one when new. Not as strong as later models but smooth and reliable for certain like all 4.3's. Never came with carbs to my knowledge on any platform, however, the aftermarket makes several different manifolds for them or did at one time.
