I dont think youll fit a 12V Cummins in a 97 Blazer. Its too big, too heavy and would require a lot of work and $$ to even attempt it.

A fullsize 80's early 90's Blazer might work, or better yet a Suburban.


Welcome to the site though

yes it will be tight...ill need a cowl hood, 15 inch firewall notch plus a lift and other things it will fit plus there is a video on youtube of an s10 with a 6bt in it.
its pretty neat i just need the $$$ to do it but i found a 12 valve motor for about a grand so well see...
