any details about doing this mod or experience with it would be appreciated. not trying to make more power i just like to play and know what i can and cant/should and should not do. i have a m1008 and m1009 id most likely experiment with the blazer then my pickup. thanks

 

You will have to raise the engine about 2"this is the biggest issue I do know of right off the top of my head I belive the same year Big Block perches will do the trick

 

That is what i was thinking. from what i have seen some people use a aftermarket top mount manifold to stay away from doing the raise. thanks for the tip on the big block perches. i see you have a m1009! say what you will about the gov but they sure do like there vehicles and have em built right. thanks for the tip.

 

Mayhem, will you go into detail about why the engines have to be raised in these particular vehicles, for those of us who do not have one? Thanks

 

Down pipe clearance is the reason you will have to raise the engine when using the stock turbo and manifolds from the 6.5s
