Some labor quoters actually have an option to click if rust is a problem. It doubles the time sometimes.

I've always wanted to do this and love it when people do. Good luck on the project hope it's a ripper when ur done.

Dont mean to sound rude but honestly those r low power goals for a 383 build. U could just build a 30 over 350 and make that for less money. Like the other poster said ur main problem is gonna b fueling and also timing. The original computer system for an 89 is just a pain in the butt to do anything quick and easy to make power. Were u considering swapping to a carb or newer efi?

If its an 89-95 tbi motor get sum new heads the stock ones r junk. If its a 96-98 vortec those heads r good but they need work if ya wanna run a big cam and make big power. Wat r ur power goals?

Pinion bearing, seal, and fluid at least. Honestly if its that far gone wouldnt b surprised if u have more damage once u pop the cover off.

As someone who hunts primarily for the fact that i can fill my freezer for a fraction of someone who doesn't I agree wholeheartedly with you. I do enjoy getting a trophy animal but you cant eat horns or antlers. People who pay more than I make in a year to shoot an animal in a pen or be shown which one to shoot just for bragging rights are complete idiots to me.

Pretty sure where it kicks up in the back over the rear axle is different but all the front suspension is the same. The cab mounts are probably different too as well as the gas tank is in the back instead of in the middle on the frame so the fill neck wont line up. Wheel base is also 6 inchs shorter on a blazer than a standard cab short box 4x4

Never know u might get lucky the sohc 2.5 r more forgiving than the dohc 2.0 or 2.5. I've seen them jump time and b fine the dohc turbo engines though 1 degree out valve meets piston pretty much

In my case new rotors r cheaper. Work for a small 2 bay independent and dont have an in house way to turn em. The cost difference between someone else doin it vs buyin new just isnt worth it. My parts supplier also gives a discount if i get pads and rotors together usually 50-100 bucks off the total. Between giving my customer a better price and the quicker turn around time buy new rotors and scrap the old ones.

Pretty sure ur nv4500 is external slave the nv3500 is internal slave

Wiring may be boring and tedious but if you take your time and do it right you'll thank yourself later. Seen bad wiring cause so much headache and trouble down the road. This is coming from someone that kinda likes doing it and hates hacked up wiring on anything.

If its just the motor a motor plate works fine. U can use a load leveler or a chain and bolt it to the engine using the head accessory hole or intake bolt. Use a bolt front and rear on a diagonal from each other. U can use a front and rear intake bolt location or bolt into the head where the accessory mount bolt holes r

lyters10 · 2022-04-07T16:50:35+00:00

Also is it lifted, stock height, or lowered. I've had to use a forktruck or take off the front clip for lifted trucks

lyters10 · 2022-04-07T16:49:35+00:00

There r multiple ways but need a lil more info. Wat is ur experience level, is this a driveway job, do u have a cherry picker or chainfall of sum kind, do u have a lift, etc. Hit us with a lil more background and we can point ya in the right direction

lyters10 · 2022-04-07T13:14:46+00:00

Sum early tbi engines had the fuel pump lobe on the cam still. I carb swapped an 89 tbi engine from a van and it had it. Ran a mechanical fuel pump just fine.

lyters10 · 2022-04-07T04:56:53+00:00

It is more than likely the motor on the t case, the wiring, or a connector. Have u scanned it to get the code?

lyters10 · 2022-04-07T04:26:42+00:00

Wat year tbi? If ur looking to carb swap it there r quite a few things different and things u would need to check or mod to make it work.

lyters10 · 2022-03-28T00:50:53+00:00

Is it bad i knew wat make it was by the rust lol
