Does anyone have any idea if a 6.0L will work in a late model blazer. with a 4L60e. i wanna know so I can get some deals i know of

 

You can put a 6.0 in anything.
Could you be more specific as to what your not sure of?
Does the blazer currently have a 4.3?

 

I'm sure apm's wondering if a complete 6.0L motor will mount (without clearance issues) between the rails of a late model Blazer.



APM... measure the distance b/t the inner sides of the fram rails. There was an article that had information about Chevy & Jeep vehicles that LS-based motors can fit, and gave a distance requirement between the framerails. I'll have to see if I can locate that article.

 

what type of blazer do you mean??

 

guys anybody with info on this. I think it woudl be a fairly straightforward swap with the 6.0 accessories, the only thing I don't know about is what you have to do with the silverado harness to get it to work with the blazer cluster?

 

I'm pretty sure that guys have put GENIII's in S-10's, which is a similar platform to the 4.3 Blazer...

 

that's what I'm trying to find out. I see a lot of 5.7L transplants, but haven't found a full GenIII, so I'm sure I'm just missing it.

 

You'll need to confirm whether or not you have a fully electric cluster or partial. Either way, it can be done. If you're doing it yourself, find service manuals for both years, and start mapping what you need from schematics (like I did).

Sounds like you're trying to find a DIY "manual" for your type of swap. Don't know if there is one. Try searching S10V8, S10forum, etc. An easy Google Search even brought up this... Click Here.

 

My friend put a 6.0L in a 2000 blazer. It is has I believe a 76mm turbo and has ran 10.80's...pretty sweet ride. It's his shop truck!

 

You mean something like this?



It's much easier to just ditch the harness on the motor and go with one from a supplier on the s10 forums who custom builds plug and play conversion harnesses.

Truck accessories can be made to work in an S10 Blazer but F-body accessories will not work without significant modification
