Default Chevy 2.8L V6

Hey guys, first post and new to the forum so bare with me.

I bought a S10 Blazer about two months ago for 200 off of craigslist, threw a new clutch in it and she worked like new. My question is, what do you guys know about the little excuse of a V6 that they have in there? I mean, is there anyway to get more power out of it or is it not worth trying to do anything to, to start off with?

And going from there, I have a Chevy 700R4 Transmission and a Chevy 305 short block sitting in my Garage, how hard is it to do a V8 swap into the S10 Blazer and how much modification am I going to have to do? Has anyone else done it and can tell me from personal experience?

Thanks Guys.
