..... Buy 6.0L or LS1 engine for Blazer K5 swap ???..................
am going to do swap for my blazer but, I am confusing which engine to choose?
The car will be daily driver, sand, mud, some street race for fun.
Which engine should I take?
Will the LS1 hold power like 6.0? And will LS1 carry the Blazer weight around 6000lb without any problems? Will be the LS1 torque good for Blazer compare to 6.0?

save some money...grab a 6.0/80E combo an put a cam an 3000 stall, LTs, CAI.
itd be one hell of a DD an itd pull anything...
its an 85+ K5 blazer? 2wd/4wd?

The difference between winning and losing, is having a 2nd stage.
A friend did some mix, Lq9 block wit 241 heads and LS6 intake.
He said it will be great combination and great power

Keep the truck intake if you want torque. and do a set of l92 heads instead of 241s
