Built correctly with a single turbo and a custom set of cams to shift the power band from high RPM to mid it would be decent in a truck, but it's really expensive to build a 2JZ correctly.
No kidding, holy sht! $125k

I've never driven a Trailblazer. What didn't you like about the engine?
I put a 4.2 /4L60E into a 46 Chevy coupe (3400 lbs) and loved it. Plenty of power and great drivability, de-smogged they put out about 300 hp. I had to build a rear sump oil pan, I was thinking of putting one in my 92 C1500 but I'm doing an LS instead.

I would be interested in a 4200 Atlas swap in my 1993 c1500, if I don’t go with one of the ATK High Performance TBI engines. I wanted to stay away from building harnesses and stand alone engine management though.
