Typhoon powered K-5

[spooltool]

Thinking about tossing this spare 28K engine and trans I have in my K-5 blazer. Can't see why it wouldn't be a great decision. All I would need to come up with is a computer setup and harness. Any out there and any Ideas about it good or bad? of course it would be a front mount air to air intercooler setup and probably a little boost in H.P. (I'm thinking 50# injectors and a larger turbo doesn't have one right now) ALSO if someone wanted to buy the engine/trans from me let's talk

I wouldn't do it. If you wanted to put it in an S10 blazer I would say go for it. Full size trucks really should have bigger engines in them the LM7's are relatively cheap and put out 280 HP and would do much better in a K5. The turbo would always be under load with the syty engine. What year is it?

I wouldnt do it either. I think a Duramax is a tad bit more enticing.

I was thinking of shoehorning a Duramax into a typhoon. It can probably be done, with little room to spare.
