Re: 84 Blazer 6.2 Diesel???

I like mine. The power is good and the mileage excellent. I can't measure mpg because I need to replace the speedo cable but a fill up lasts way longer than it should. I don't have lift/33's on mine yet but I can't imagine this motor caring. Mine is a CUCV so it's got the TH400 transmission. If you're looking at a civvy version, the TH700R4 would be better on the hwy.

Re: 84 Blazer 6.2 Diesel???

I get anywhere from 13-17 mpg in my 91 burb with a 6.2 and the banks sidewinder turbo on it. It has a 700r4 trans, a 6 inch lift, 4.56 gears, 37" bfg km2's, and it is running strong at over 200k miles.
