The transformations have been taking place...

[CLASSIC87']

I dropped the front today...

[PRUNEDA]

That is going to be a bad blazer, what did you use for the front?

[rdm1208]

Looks good, cant wait to see the back down also.

HOPEFULLY Wednesday... shackles should be here by then.

I went ahead and installed new swaybar bushings in front today as well... also Belltech shocks; rides alot better already.

[BruthaMan]

Very clean. Always enjoy your posts. She's going to be another sweet ride!

Thanks... I used the old 2" drop coils from my 87'... and it already had a 3" drop spindle installed.

I take it the engine swap was a success (did I miss a post?)? Looks great!

[Jonboy]

I was wondering how the engine transplant went, too. I bet there is a huge difference.

[STOCKISH]

Thats awesome man, wondering how it'll look with some Torque Thrust IIs to match the truck though.

Hahaha... I would love to... but that's not happening anytime soon. I really wanted to keep it simple for a DD... I wanna be able to run thru a car wash, blow dry and continue down the road. Those polished wheels are too much up keep for me. I personally can't stand to look at a clean vehicle but then look at the wheels and people don't have the time to polish them. Now if I can find some chrome wheels that I really like... then that'll be a different story

[WigglesTheHoly]

Nice!!

[CLASSIC87']

Here's some after pics of the engine transplant... it is definitely better than before. But I will add that I like the get up and go of my 87' TBI with 373 alot better. The Blazer is so much more quieter now and runs soo smooth... I can't complain on that part at all.

I'll get some better pics when the sun is out and it's all cleaned up again. I'm not for sure how much I care about the Eldenbrok accessories... they are kinda blah looking... but we used them anyways. Maybe some day they will get changed out.

[silvereagle07]

Looking good CLASSIC87! The edlebrock accessories don't look bad.IMO I think it would look better with a round air cleaner though. Great job man.

[boatpuller]

.i don't reckon a feller could haul many hogs back there though.
other than that it look's pretty darn sweet.

[CLASSIC87']

Here's some more pics... detailed it up a bit and installed the fender badges and found some real nice floor mats.

[staggerd86c-10]

where did you find those floor mats? i can never find anything in blue anywhere.

[CLASSIC87']

Finally found some on Craigslist... a guy was parting out a mid 90's suburban. You can look for years 88'-up on the FS pick ups and 92'-up Tahoes and Suburbans... they fit excellent. Keep lookn u will find them... also check Ebay but they r expensive there.

[joe231]

I thought I saw this on the south side of OKC, but it had a GMC grill and some gray primer on the drivers side, must be a twin...

[gchemist]

I wish I could find one that clean!! I want a 4X2 for an LS swap.

[bwhit10]

Another quick question... What are those seats out of that are in your blazer? They look good !

They were out of a 88'- early 90's truck...

Thanks,

I hate to be the spoil sport, but the latest updates on both is that they were rehomed.
