swap 2.8 for 4.3

Hello, I have a 93 S10 2wd 2.8L with a 5speed. I would like to swap this engine out for a 4.3L with a 700R4. Is this an easy swap. What am I in for?

Re: swap 2.8 for 4.3

think about it all that time money for a 4.3? Don't get me wrong, but just concider.....305-350.
the 350 will be cheaper then the 305 plus more hp.
and that's what it's all about.
good luck and check out the conversion manuel from jags that run.

i'm in the process of swapping a 2.8 with a rebuilt 4.3. if you want to keep good gas mileage go with the 4.3. but if you want 300+hp in your blazer go with a 350
