The focus for this build is to make a driver, meaning a blazer I can drive with comfort and have excellent reliability.
Fun comes into it too with those 4:56 gears, it should accelerate damn good.

It will also have a good cruise RPM's @ 65mph and comfy seats for those road trips and a low/low that comes close to rivalling a doubler set-up with a ratio of 79:1, for the days I choose to do a little wondering in the hills.
