If you have the heater hose hooked up and the vacuum line to heater control is hooked to the engine (assuming it uses a vacuum line - if not then you need to consult a service manual on how the heater hot air door works) then you should have hot air.

An 01 blazer with a heater control valve?
Id like to see that.

If you have hoses going to the heater core, from the engine you WILL have hot air.

The blower motor circuit and mode/temp door operation are not affected when installing an LS1.

well there is a catch, it use to be a 95 and i converted it over to 01 but even still every thing hooked right up as if it where a 01, i did have to mod the firewall , steering mount, and weld dash bracket's in, other than that all the wiring went in just as if it where a 01, but the damn blower motor want come on
