Re: 76 Blazer LS swap
went ahead and installed a new heater core and evaporator so hopefully they don't have to be changed again. I will be using Hooker Blackheart swap headers and engine mounts on this build

Re: 76 Blazer LS swap
Very nice headers
Are you going to run the A/C system? How did you hook up the gas pedal? DBW or DBC ? What are you doing for the engine harness? Making your own fuel system in the tank?

Re: 76 Blazer LS swap

Re: 76 Blazer LS swap
And no one mentions the ridiculously clean garage? I'm jealous!
Do you have a part number for the trans cooler and mounts? Or is that the ail cooler sitting in front of the Condenser? Is this a US Forest service truck? I love what you are doing! |
