Not sure what size wheel yet. The rear is out of a 66 chevy truck so it's 3" narrower than the stock one. Because of that i'll be trying to stuff the biggest wheel tire combo with the right offset. The rack & pinion setup is from No Limit Engineering. I believe it's a Chevy truck rack, maybe around 2002.

Re: Naught's 82 2wd K5 Blazer
Yes... Had a little set back, didn’t realize the LS2 knock sensors wouldn’t work with the ECU that I have.. Had to take the motor back off and drill/tap the side of the block so the LS1 knock sensors would fit. I decided to try and start it with just the frame so I can find all the bugs before setting body on. I’ll be posting some new pics soon. Thanks for following!
