Will a 2.8 engine from 1988 Chevy beretta fit 1989 blazer?

No, a 1988 Chevy Beretta 2.8L V6 engine will almost certainly not be a direct bolt-in fit for a 1989 Chevy Blazer. While both vehicles might share some GM parts, the chassis and engine bay configurations are different enough to create significant incompatibility issues. You'd likely face problems with:

* Motor Mounts: The mounting points for the engine are unlikely to align.

* Transmission: The Beretta likely has a different transmission that won't mate to the Blazer's transmission or transfer case.

* Wiring Harness: The engine wiring harness and computer are different and not compatible.

* Exhaust System: The exhaust system will need significant modification or replacement.

* Cooling System: The radiator and other cooling components might not be compatible.

While it *might* be *possible* with extensive fabrication and modifications, it's not a practical or straightforward swap. It would be a very major undertaking requiring significant mechanical skill and resources. It would be far easier and more cost-effective to find a compatible engine for the Blazer.
