Yes, I just recently did that, and it was a direct swap for my 82. The 94 motor came with a new fan, so you won't need to re-use the old one. I'm guessing the 94 motor has a few more windings in it. It seems to have alot more power, and doesn't really cost any more. Go for it.

Fairly common swap that most don't ask about.

Me too! My AC blows cold but it just never felt like it was blowing hard enough, even with a new fan.

So the '94 motor doesn't match up to my '80 non a/c truck-the heater box is not deep enough. It does however match up to my '84 a/c truck. I may however modify the box at some point.

Yep, old thread revival.  ;D

So I'm correct that this setup will work in an Original A/C equipped truck, like a '78 model?

Also what 94 do you order the fan for?  94 chevy truck WITH A/C, or Without?

I had one of the newer blower motors in my truck. They do move a lot more air than the stock ones. Mine actually moved a little bit too much air and completely shattered the fan. Took it out in pieces and put a brand new stock one back in. This was probably my fault anyway cause i got it out of the junkyard. Worked nice for a couple days. Gave its life to warm up my hands one cold afternoon. May just order a new one for the 94, i do like it a lot better than the stock one.

Glad you revived it! Cause now I know about this. But yeah I have the same question as you. I would assume, that if you have AC, you'd get a fan off a 94 truck/burb/blazer that also had AC. Can anyone confirm? I have had a problem with this from day 1 with my truck. Makes a lot of noise on high, but doesn't move much air. I even looked at all the air plumbing and couldn't find anything that could be causing that much of a problem.
