Re: My '72 Blazer project.

we ended up ditching the 350 that was in it. one of the cylinders was going bad and got horrible mpg. so we ended up going to a junk yard and getting a 5.3 fuel injected engine from a 2001 chevy pickup with 40000 miles if i remember right. sent up the computer to some guy in south dakota and had them make a custom wiring harness and had them do a performance upgrade. had to get rid of the manifolds of the pickup and found a guy in my town doing a 5.3 swap into his older ride and he had the manifolds that were out of a camaro. so we traded now the manifolds fit between the frame. pulled the body off to paint the frame.
