new kid in town

[jslezak83]

hey guys, saying hi. i own an 87 S10 Blazer, and it has a 305 TPI that i swapped last year. i am now begining a 355 TPI that will spool a 62-1, and it will be controled by the '749 ECM. anyway, i hope to do alot of learning here, and have a mean little truck.

Re: new kid in town

Welcome. You should post up some pics of what you got. I have a v8 87 blazer too, but the engine came out and now sits in a 73 camaro with a procharger and TPI. You can see some pics here . The best ones are in the last post.

Re: new kid in town

thats a sweet looking camaro you've got there. a buddy of mine from work has a '70.

one a side note, you guys aren't gonna kill me for non-sy/ty stuff are you? i don't get much support over at thirdgen.org. i thought that the same engine might bond us, but that wasn't the case. at least we share the same platform!

Looks like a clean swap :tup: I like the wheels too. Needs a 92 ty interior though

Re: new kid in town

yeah i moved the radiator, its the corvette one. there isn't a condenser for the A/C. i kinda plan on removing it, and it didn't work anyway. i just hooked everything up because i don't like the look of open lines all over the place. i have a new heater box, but it needs to be blasted/painted.

agreed that they should have came that way, but what fun would that be. besides, your sweet truck might have never made it if GM was pumping out V8 S10s.
