Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
Just a little of everything.... It's like falling down a squirrel hole backward without my old man reading (shop) glasses...

Hey, I worked that scuff out of the K 20 front cap. I was pretty proud of my handy work. Thanks

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
Nice project, like to see more. Much more involved than mine on the stock frame. I did not want to cut fenders to much and am limited. Maybe think about a build thread in the 4x4 section or main build section. BTW your pics are really big. If you are hosting off site, maybe downsize a bit for easier viewing.

Thanks for the feedback. I was struggling to get the photo down to a reasonable size without rehosting them for this site, but looks like I don't have a choice. Let's try it again from PhotoBucket this time: (Using "Medium" setting) -G

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
Swapped carbs on mine - from a 750 Edelbrock to a 600 Holley.
Word of warning - those $15 mechanical fuel pumps put out a lot more that the 5-7 psi recommended. Mine is overpowering the system and flooding the engine something terrible. Now I need to install a regulator...

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
It was delivered Friday from CA to MA.
I replaced the vent windows with some from Roger Koop that I was going to use on my 2 wheel drive Blazer, I ordered a pair of replacements. I replaced the sweeps and fuzzies, I can never get them perfectly straight. Replaced all the locks with a set from Leon including the glove box lock. And I took the top off today, outside by myself! ![]() The Blazer as it should be! ![]()
