Carbed sbc swap

95blazerproject · 10-07-2009, 09:13 AM

Hey guys,
Newb here, just found this forum and looks like i will be staying awhile

.
I have a few questions about doing a v8 swap in my 95 s10 blazer.
1) I know i can put a 350 in it but does it have to be fuel injected?
2) Would i have to change the tranny and t-case to run a carbed motor?
3) Is there a good place to buy pre fabbed motor mounts?
4) what headers fit and wheres the best place to get them?

The reason i ask this is because i work at a junk yard and come across tons of nice old carbed 350's but the vortec's are real hard to come by and im trying to do this for little to no money.

Any help or advise would be appreciated!

1. No, You can run just about any setup you want as long as you've got the "know-how"
2. I don't see why you would, you may have to make a new Trans Mount.

2) 4X4 needs a custom oil pan.
