im in ca i am a full size and the motor is newer then my blazer oh and ya let me know how much for the air cleaner assembly and do u have a stock intercooler

 

ya make sure you check laws they wouldnt let my buddy do a k1500 cummins diesel swap why i couldnt tell you but it doesnt hurt to check im in CA too. as for parts, send me an email at tltruckparts@hotmail.com

 

what year was the k1500 and what year was the cummins and i will send u a email

 

it was a 93 k1500 and it didnt matter what year the engine was. it wasnt a matter of newer cars and older engines. it was a matter or DOT dafety stuff i believe. and my buddy todd who did a p pump cummins in a 91 chevy 1 ton had his refereed and it cost him just shy of 1000 bucks all said and done. itd almost be worth finding a beat up diesel one and just using the vin then itd be cheaper and no headache

 

the diesel blazer is like gold to alot of people i wouldnt want a 6.2 slow ha ha but the vins would be nice

 

i know of like 4 older diesel jimmys and blazers around here. ill keep an eye out for you. i see em running and whatnot all the time for like 1000 bucks or cheaper

 

or even pre 75 vins

that would be very cool if u could do that

 

ok so im gonna take a stab at it any ways and im going to start on it late next week im gonna smog the gasser before i take it out and its time for its smog anyways so i will have two years so the smog part will be delt with latter the only two major things i still need for the swap is a intercooler and a 4x4 tranny

 

First off, very cool conversion.
I had no problems whatsoever changing my title over to diesel on my 1990 Suburban after the conversion. Besides, some K5 Blazers had the 6.2 diesel so it can be done. If you have any problems with regards to this, PM me and I can steer you in the right direction.

I believe the 1/2 ton frame is identical to the 3/4 ton frame on 73-87 trucks. However, the 1 ton frame is a bit taller in some areas.

Reinforcing the steering box area of the frame would be a good idea. They were prone to cracking especially when lifted or oversize tires were fitted. There are kits available such as the following:
Steering Box Gusset Kit

 

i am all ears if u want to tell me the do's and donts for getting it writen off i am in the mix of the steering box cause i just did crack the frame but i like to fab stuff so im gonna make something over kill for the steering box
