Yea they were. I just changed out the lines. That job sucks. The underside of the blazer is nasty looking. oil everywhere. In the middle of cleaning it now. What happend was the oil everytime I filled it up it would leak into the skid plate. I guess it got so full when I parked on an angle it leaked off the plate.

Where did you get the new line set from? Im making my own with braided line and AN fittings since i have the wrenches and fittings laying around from my old drag car.

mountie1982, if your just getting new lines could I possibly talk you into sendng me your old ones. It 2.8L that I'm yanking out didn't have anything like that, but the 6.2L Diesel that Im dropping in does. I'd like to see if the 4.3L lines will work with my conversion before waisting a bunch of extra coin on something that might not work

If he cant, permacool makes a kit for alot of motors.....lines, fittings and the filter plates in one kit.

That would be great mountie1982
Believe it or not I'm thinking of all sorts of potential problems with this swap before I get to them. I wonder what'll happen when I get to a big problem.

I'm just east of Osoyoos, I could probably get the fish BC delivery network to bring them up pretty quick if it works out for you.

I was past your place about a week ago but didn't have the time to visit with anyone

[mountie1982]

I'll hang onto them for you. We will work out a way to get them to you.
