Nice to have ya here! You wouldn't be the first one to drop a 6.0 into a blazer. If you check the projects section there a S10 blazer with a 6.0 and supercharger which should be pretty informative for you.

thank you. wow i will have to look into that....sounds pretty nasty. i think i'll be just fine with a 6.0+LS1 intake mani and TB+headers+exhaust+tune. atleast thats what i say now lol this 4.3, while a great motor just doesnt get the truck moving like i want....and since i did the audio system and wheels its gotten worse

pics are posted in show and shine.

Welcome. You should think about the LS6 mani over the LS1. LS6 has better gains over the LS1..

Welcome to the site. +1 for Ls6 over Ls1 if your doing the swap. Not sure if the truck intake would fit.
