What it would sound like? Like exhaust tone? I'd think the same way, if not very similar to the way it sounds in an F-body...

Are you upgrading from a 2.8?

I'm curious as to why it wouldn't... lol, the tone may be a little different depending on the exhaust you're using, if it's the muffler from the F-body then yeah probably, if it's a Cherry Bomb, then it would sound completely different. The different bends in the exhaust piping could affect the accoustics somewhat too, and if the exhaust on the blazer is shorter/longer as well.

In a nutshell... same muffler/engine from the F-body = same sound as the F-body... change one of those 2 variables (muffler/engine) then it'll sound different.

Doesn't sound bad. 60 degree engines are balanced better than the 90 degree v6s plus with our firing order they don't sound as ricey with an exhaust on them.

Where you dump the pipe effects the sound also. Mine is dumped under the body infront of the axle and if you hold it at 2k going down the road it has a bad drone. The rest of the time it sounds fine.
