I picked up an '85 military Blazer with 103K on the meter. The starter is out of the 6.2 diesel and the reverse is out of the trans. I need to pull either the motor or transfer to remove the transmission, so it might as well be the diesel. I have a nice 454 out of an'80 RV that is 245 horse. Thinking of freshening it up and dropping it in. My questions are, Do I need a donor truck for the wiring harness, will the exhaust bolt up to the BBC and will the 3 hose power steering pump from the diesel mount to the BBC? Basically, have you done this before? Thanks
