Just read through your thread. Nice build.

I'm look at putting LS 6.2 in my 86 blazer. Any advise would be helpful. Looks like I will need motor mounts, a new crossmember, new fuel tank and sending unit for 87-91 blazer.
Which fuel pump are you using, is it an in tank pump?
I have a 700r4 so will I need an adapter to bolt it to the motor?

Sorry, I just now read this. Let me know if you still have questions. I am fixing to pull the LQ9 and put a 5.3 in it and go back to 1/2 ton running gear.

No problem.
Things have changed some here too.
Put an '07 5.3L/4L60E in it, almost have it done.

Super clean, looks great. Are the dual shock mounts factory?

Nice truck, Teck! You should start up a build thread. Why the change of plans, jkade? Putting this drivetrain in another rig?

Changed because at the the time I could find a 6.2 I wanted, so I did the 5.3 just to get the swap worked out. As for the 4L60E I went with it because of the DBW, didn't want to change to cable gory to make the 700r4 work.

Here is a link to my build at CK5. http://coloradok5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=253165
Sometime I guess I should do one here.

Yes, I am putting the 6.0 in a 2wd s10 blazer with a 6 speed. I am putting a 5.3 with a tr220 cam back in the k5.

That blazer is awesome!!!!! Clean as hell!!!!

Anyone wanna buy it before I demod it? Fixing to pull motor and axles. I will take $7000 for it.

MTCK · 01-18-2012, 01:20 PM

That's a decent price with all the trimmings. The road trip home would be a little long. Throw it up in the classifieds with some pics and a link to this thread.

i know this is old... but i have a question about the tank and the pump... can you explain what tank you are using and what pump setup? I am trying to get a 5.3L swap together on an almost non-existent budget....

tank and pump and sending unit from an 87 and after will work on a budget. If you arnt planning on putting any mods on it.

I thought the newer stuff ran at much higher fuel psi than the old TBI?
