I have a 93 PU with a 4.3 TBI engine and a manual transmission. Other than swaping the flywheel can I swap it with a 95 4.3 vortec TBI engine?

Sorry no you it won't work out. The 95 year is a year of its own you either have knock sensors on each head or a plastic timing cover depending on vin number. So you can only go to 92 to 94 and you need to make sure you do a W engine for a W engine and you also will need to make sure that if you have a balance shaft that the other motor has one too as this also changes things. Sorry but that is what it is. I hope this helps.
