Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
Thanks, it works out perfect for me I have a 5.3 in my garage from a wreck I got to use front end parts for my son in laws truck. The Jimmys engine has issues and I will transplant the 5.3 and leave the 700R4 in place. Flash the computer, new mounts, new fuel pump, lines and a few weeks of time and it should be on the road again. (At least thats the plan)

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
Its not too bad. The directions suck so i looked up a couple of threads on this site and found some good pictures so i kind of knew what i was getting into before i started. The main thing i would say is take your time and pre-drill the header snap holes because the self tapping screws that they give you are crap and you will strip out the heads if you are not careful. Other than that it went pretty smooth.

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
You could still use your hard top but you would have to remove the header bar and the aluminum rails that bolt to the bed rails.

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
After many evenings of modifying the old 2001 5.3 engine harness and getting the computer modified to get rid of the 4L60 auto, Anti Theft stuff and the rear OX sensors. I dropped the 5.3 into my 70 Jimmy today on to Dirty Dingo mounts.
It was difficult to move the engine into place against my 700R4 once I dropped it in but there was a small bracket on the power steering pump keeping it from moving that I didn't see. It's in now but it took most of the afternoon/evening, tomorrow Ill connect it all up.
