Ok, this is indefinitely on hold now bc I ended up trading the Trailblazer for an LS4 Impala SS and will be knocking out the 6T70/75 transmission swap on that before revisiting this. Maybe by spring I'll get another 58x I6/I5 or summon the motivation to pull the broken 5.3L from RS 1.0 and drop...

RS 1.0 wiped out its bearings, so this is temporarily on hold for the winter as it will be the daily driver

I'm thanking you NOW for this bc I have to do this either today or Saturday. :biggrin: :thumbsup:

Ordered an extra set of parts for the 4200 6L80 Project that I don't need! My loss is your gain. NEW Emtech Block adapter kit This adapter plate allows SBC/LS1 bolt pattern transmissions to be used behind the Atlas**. Examples are NV4500, T56, 6L50, 6L80, TH400, T-5, etc. 4&5 cylinder...

Truck engine finally got swapped 2 weeks ago and I'm driving it. Engine adapter parts just arrived this past week. Transfer case adapter were just finished by the machine shop, but I haven't had time to inspect. All the parts are finally all in, but with everything 1 month past schedule and...

I'm not too keen on the TrailBlazer SS all wheel drive system. the objective is to simply demonstrate the lowest the cost option to make the conversion the con I could go crazy with a whole bunch of custom parts, but then it would get ridiculously expensive

Parts still not finished.

Waiting on the custom bellhousing/starter/transfer case adapters.

Project Trailblazer RS 2.0 has not been officially renamed PROJECT: Trailblazer Blue Flame (get it?) :woot: and is officially underway. Truck is at the shop. Motor is on the way there. ...although I'm wondering if the motor is salvageable. It has a knocking sound upon start up that sounds like...

There is a good write up on Trailvoy where someone put in an 04/06 or so I6 into an 02 TB. Still up with pics, the last I checked. I won't be photographing too much of the actual labor as it's pretty much just R&R. Unplug, unbolt this, replug, bolt that. Thinking about it on an off, it looks...

Just bought the replacement engine....Everything from MAF/clutch fan to flex plate, including harness, accessories and ECM for $1900 shipped and with under 70k miles! Reached out to my various known associates for exhaust and turbo input.

Thanks guys. I've been eager to do this for a while. As I previously stated, with the onset of 4-6 cylinder performance becoming more common place (plus easier and cheaper to work on in vehicle originally designed for V8's), I'm gonna jump into this deeply. If people have the ability to do the...

Well, Trailblazer RS 1.0 (5.3L 4WD 6L80) was such a smashing success (until the DoD/AFM failed) that I decided to BAM it up notch and show how you can indeed run a 6L80/90 behind any engine...V or otherwise. After realizing that high output and twin turbo I4/I6 cylinders are the future, I...
