Nope. can't happen. The only v8 that fits in the blazers is an LS1.


or just use the search, and you'd find www.jagsthatrun.com

It's not really a 'kit'...and it takes alot of work, but alot of people have done it.

JTR sells the book.

If you watch Powerblock TV on the Spike channel the Trucks show not only dropped in a V8, they droped in a big block 502 V8. There is even an S10 forum dedicated to the swap. It is one of the easiest engine swaps to be done and highly popular.

It really isn't that hard. I did it to my 95 blazer, but mine is 4wd so it took a bit longer and a bit more money. I am glad I did the swap.

It is by far an easy swap, but it is worth it in the end, I think.
