I had bought an 87 Blazer when they came out that year and drove the dickens out of it until it was t-boned by a runaway 68 BelAir in 93. I never had a mechanical failure with the Vortec engine. The belt retention frame broke and I drove the Blazer without the fan belt about 3 miles home and the temp gage was trying to register white hot. I fixed the frame and the engine worked flawlessly. When the Blazer died, it had 178,000 miles and I couldn't save the engine because of insurance regs. Too bad.

Why did your car make a bang sound smoke through exhaust and then shut off in the middle of the freeway?

In automotive terms, it sounds to me like it "threw a rod". A few reasons that would happen could be from, lack of engine oil, lack of oil and filter changes, high mileage and abuse. If that is the case the engine is all done.
