motor swap

i was wondering if anyone Knows if a 4.3 liter motor and trans from a 1988 blazer would fit easily into a 1987 blazer with the 2.8 liter motor.
Both automatic. will the motor mounts be the same?

also i have 4.3l motor and the trans from an 1989 s-10 would this work better?

any help is appreciated!!!

Whats the tranny in the 2.8?Is it the 700r4?The 2.8 mounts bolt in the 4.3 spot but if you are going with 4.3 get those mounts.Should just go V8 if its that time

Re: motor swap

a 3.4 is an easyer swap (six cyl camaros) if your goign to go with the 4.3 the money you will spend swapping will be about the same as a 350 swap
