Re: Project Family Truckster: 2wd Conversion Turbo LSx Blazer Build
Man that is pretty quite. I was expecting it to be louder. My 5.3 with a 70 on it was twice as loud. Might have to reconsider putting mufflers on mine now!

It gets a LOT more rowdy when the wastegate opens (dumped to atmosphere) but it's like that with the "full exhaust" I had on it too.

Looks like I have an admirer. I had to do a quadruple take when I saw this posted on Instagram. WTF.

Re: Project Family Truckster: 2wd Conversion Turbo LSx Blazer Build
Haha I sent that to you on IG. I had to double take it when I saw the wheels but knew the front end was a different color.

Curious, what prompted the dominator to megasquirt swap?

Re: Project Family Truckster: 2wd Conversion Turbo LSx Blazer Build
It's the other way. Megasquirt to Dominator. It's because the megasquirt always ran like **** on my setup for some reason.

Re: Project Family Truckster: 2wd Conversion Turbo LSx Blazer Build
Some updates. Haven't done a whole lot to the truck but play with it. The warm winter weather lately has allowed me to go out and put some miles on it.
Had it to the dyno again last fall at my bud's shop. Made a lil more power again. Lol. Got the high power number for the day. I also upgraded to the new Holley touch screen from the older version. Fabricated a new dash panel out of aluminum to house it as well. Quick little rip on a 70 degree Feb day in IL.

Re: Project Family Truckster: 2wd Conversion Turbo LSx Blazer Build
Yearly check-in.
You totally jinxed me. lol. Last spring, was out on a hot lap with a buddy. Laid into it, making a quick pull from 65 or so.....BOOM, clank, clunk, bang, twang Hauled it home and pulled the rear diff cover....and all the gears fell out. lol Put it all back together, went to take it for a ride...backed it out of the shop....put it in drive...no forward gear at all. FACK! So short story long, it's now got a fully built and billet'd 4L80E with a transbrake, and i sold the 12 bolt and put a 35 spline Moser Dana 60 in it with a True-Trac and Wilwood brakes in. That ended up being an expensive beat run.
