Will a 1995 (4.3) S10 Blazer 4l60e work in a 1994 k1500 (5.7)?

My Sons First Truck

At least the 4L60e was NOT a 700r4 so you were not accused of adjusting it improperly! I believe 94 was the first year of that. My 98 4.3L W/T longbox is chugging away at only 195k. My 98 C1500 xcab 5.7 from TX is at 472k and runs awesome as well. Those are great first trucks if not rotted away!
