Can you put a chevy tracker engine in a chevy blazer?

the chevy tracker engine is a 2004 and its suzuki motor; and i was wondering if i could take it out and put it in a 95 blazer .. would it need just a few modifications or is it even possible?|||No. As you stated the tracker, along with the engine, is not GM except the Emblem.|||no freaking way|||Why would you even want to take the HP and torque loss? Usualy people want to swap for a BETTER engine. But contrary to what the others are saying. It could be done with some severe and costly fabrication. Wouldn't even be close to worth it though.|||I doubt that engine would adequately power the blazer, you would have difficulty accelerating safely, and likely have worse gas mileage than the original blazer motor. Thats why automakers don't put 4 cylinders in full size trucks, run them at 8000 rpm, and then gear them back down to get torque. Not to mention the prohibitive cost as mentioned to custom manufacture everything.|||I laugh when these geniuses say no way! Yopu can do it, but thew question is ahy woulod you want to. You can actually stuff a 350 chevy in it!

What is the most economical way to upgrade my engine on a 1989 Chevy Caprice Classic?

I have decided to take my 1989 chevy caprice to the max. It currently has a 305 engine with about 95,000 supposedly original miles on it that runs fine but im not really impressed. I want to begin planning on an engine swap but really don't know much about it. Should i try to have it rebuilt into a 350? Is that even possible? Will i have to rebuilt the transmission too? What about suspension? Are there any resources online where i can do comprehensive research? Any comments and suggestions are welcome. How much am i loking at?|||The car is an 89--you can do an entire motor swap to a 350--using a Jasper rebuild--warranted for 50000 miles and 3 years--but you still have a tired trans and probably need a suspension update--these are extremely important if you want to really do an old car over--so figure about 6000 for a motor, trans, suspension, brakes, exhaust and front end parts--get a shop to agree to do it all at once--not one thing at a time. The car will be pretty good to drive and cheaper than a new one. please forget beating the car because it has a bigger motor--the car doesn't need to be raced or abused---it is still an 89 and anything can happen--I have always doubled the life of my Suburbans by doing a motor and trans replacement--the brakes and suspension are top notch---the truck is a 99 but I did do all of this to an 84 and an 89 Suburban. Old vehicles get tired and can still be a good base for a rebuild if taken care of properly and getting all the important stuff done. Shop around and get prices to compare--all shops have varied hourly rates---but the real thing to ask is if they are going to have a warranty for all the work you paid for. I always have the dealer do my work--always easier for them to get parts--my truck was always done in 3 days--everyone of them. Just decide on what you want and then give them the car and forget about it until it is done. Good luck|||Dump the 305 and just build or buy a mild 350 with cam, intake, headers and a good carb---four bolt main block would be preferred but not necessary. Try sites like Jegs.com for hi-po parts and check local parts stores or salvage yards for rebuilt or used motors---with low miles and a good warranty. You'll have to change out the computer for a bigger engine application which will probably be the hardest part of all unless you can eliminate it alltogether. If you have a TH200 trans, best to get rid of that for a TH350 or 700R4....stock should be ok. Suspension mods, look for police package parts at a dealer or aftermarket companes if they're still available. Could run a few thousand if you can do a lot yourself.|||No, you can't bore a 305 to a 350 because you will get into the water jackets(where coolant flows through). If the transmission is still good, it should work fine with a 350 as long as horsepower stays 300 horsepower or less. You can get new springs, shocks, bushings, sway bars, and struts at Summit Racing, Jegs, and some other websites too. A 350 from 87-95(minus LT1, LT4, and LT5) will work with the intake manifold you already have and will bolt up. You might want to get a computer chip, injectors, and knock sensor for a 350. You could always get a small supercharger that will help the performance. If you did the work(meaning no labor cost) these stuff yourself, it would cost around $1500 to $3000 (minus the supercharger) and depending on what kinds of deals you find on parts.|||You can only bore a 305 .030 maximum safely. If you google the 305 it is possible to upgrade it with an expensive cylinder head, intake manifold, Holley vacuum secondary 650, and a very mild camshaft change. I read an article on the computer yesterday about a test at Shaver racing engines with the above changes.

What is the cost to repair the oil cooling hoses on a 2000 Chevy Blazer?

Our Chevy Blazer has had a small oil leak forever. We were told today that it is a standard problem for that car and can be resolved by replacing two hoses. Has anyone heard of this?|||Yes. Very common and not too expensive. Those hoses are around $45.00 for both. That is here in Arkansas.|||http://www.s10forum.com/forum/f107/repair-your-leaking-oil-cooler-lines-343472/

|||Yep very common problem. On earlier motors it was also common to leak by the oil filter where the lines came off, not sure if they got around that with the newer design that yours should be. There is a 'leak kit' that includes several little gaskets and o rings. Hoses were separate if needed. They are also made by an aftermarket company called Dorman so it may be worth asking your shop if they are using GM or the Dorman parts and if there is a price or quality difference. I have used both over the years and it all depends on the mark ups of the places you are getting the parts as far as which is cheaper.|||Try to find http://auto4u.info

How to fix hard shifting on 03 Chevy Cavalier between gears on 4 speed automatic transmission?

I have a 2003 Chevy Cavalier that shifts hard between gears. It has an electronically controlled 4 speed automatic transmission. What do I need to do to get it shifting smoothly like it was new? It usually shifts hard between 1-2 2-3 and slower speeds, but the car will "jump" if you punch the gas at any time. Do I just need to have the automatic transmission fluid changed or do I need to take it to a transmission place to have it adjusted?





Thank you in advance for your suggestions!|||how many miles? check your fluid level and if its fine, try changing the transmission filter

What is the difference between a 1953 chevy and GMC pickup truck?

My grandpa bought a 1953 Chevy Pickup in need of repairs and he was wondering if it would be possible for him to use parts off of a '53 GMC Pickup on the truck.|||Almost no difference between a Chevrolet and a GMC truck in these years. Mostly the badging and trim. Most parts will interchange.

What is the mechanics flat rate to change out a transmission in a Chevy pickup?

We have a 1999 Chevy 3/4 ton silverado with a 5 speed transmission.


Trying to figure out what the hours are in the flat rate book to change this out.|||some say 6 hours flat, but ive seen a few of the old manuals say 6-8 hours and the shop charges for 7 hours at whatever their rate is.|||One of the worst car issues I just went through was when my transmission blew. I know my way around a car somewhat, but not so much when it comes to transmissions. I did some shopping around, but eventually settled on Grand Rapids Transmission (www.grandrapidstransmission.com). I was more comfortable giving my business to a place that specializes in transmission repairs and rebuilds. Besides, their free diagnostic service didn鈥檛 hurt anything either. It was much more painless than I expected to. They offered towing to and from the shop, and their rates were very good too.|||most charge about 50 bucks an hour and it gives 6 hours on changing that one out,but in a good shop it can be done in less time but most shops will charge at least 250-350 to swap it out,you cant hardly get one done for less,if its 4 wheel drive add another 125 to that price,good luck.|||haha probably not cheap|||2 or 4 wheel drive?
