if your truck is 4x4 gonna need oil pan a 2in body lift will make your conversion little easier 8)
dont know what year your blazer is but vortech requires a high pressure fuel pump to run... 62 psi

You have the same pump as a V8 right now, everything will be pretty much plug and play if you get the computer from a donor vehicle, as stated though you will need a different oil pan for the 350. As far as the computer goes look for a donor truck, get the motor out of that as well as the computer, make sure to write down the Vin # and after your swap is all complete I will tell you how to get some amazing horse power out of it for cheap! Do not forget Vin # very important!!!
PS: You will also need different motor mounts, they sell complete kits for this swap, includes headers, oil pan, motor mounts.
I can't seem to find the kits for a 4x4?
