With the help of a guest gearhead, Horsepower installs a re-purposed LS engine in a 1998 Chevy Blazer. It's a unique, low-budget project, complete with transmission re-build.
I remember this episode, according to Rick Bacon that blazer with the V8 swap got over 20 mpg averaging 80 mph, I miss this era of PowerNation/PowerBlock.
It's not hard at all..I rebuilt my 4l60e in my garage .if u follow directions well you will do fine.always remember WHAT ONE MAN CAN DO ANOTHER CAN DO!!
What a hack job. Cutting the oil pan should be one of the last resorts in a build. Should have gone with the 2 inch body lift and saved a ton of time and stress. They did a good job with the trans but would have made more sense to go with a 4l80.
It’s a whole lot easier to put an ls where a small block Chevy was, and even then you run into issues. Putting one where a smaller engine was and in a relatively modern small engine bay is a challenge.
