WOW installed the new HEI...what a difference!

I have been planning on installing an HEI conversion for months instead of running the current stock points and I finally did it. Its been 20+ years since I did one and it was just like riding a bike. This is a brand new HEI and it only cost me $50 bucks. I installed new plugs, wires and it started right up on the first try. Set the timing and its like night and day, what a difference. The Blazer was running ok but not perfect. I came back on Sunday from looking at Blue Thunder's Blazer and when I got home it started missing, the first thing I thought was darn points! Its kinda cool that the Blazer waited until I got home to start missing. Chevy's never let me down/stranded. To anyone contemplating installing HEI, do it now and see what a difference. After 20+ years I had forgotten how nice HEI is. Pics...
