Well, onto the next one. Not a whole lot of back story on this Blazer other than I got my hands on it, had a Softtopper top and I had to track down a hard top. SBC truck with a TH350.

Was driving it for a while, no real issues, normal stuff. Sold a Corvette I had which is funding this quest.

So for the drivetrain, it's a 54K mile 2013 Camaro LS3 with a TR6060 trans. I am in no way shape or form a content creator, but decided to do a build series on this one. Here's the links to the youtube videos. there's 2 so far.

And here is how it goes.

Being that it's a 2013 Camaro, that means electric power steering. Now I could've went and got a bracket kit and ran hydraulic power steering but I was feeling like I wanted to be different. So here's my take on the brackets for a Volvo EPS system.

















I whipped this up on Fusion 360 and had a local Metal shop plasma cut this out. I have since built my own plasma table and look forward to doing more things like this in the future!

Looks good brother. Anxious to see how it works out.

Little pedal adapter I whipped up in Fusion 360 to 3D print. Worked out great. Might adjust the angle just a bit, but probably only spent about $5 in filament and an hour and a half over 2 different iterations/designs.

It uses the factory bolts and mounting location and just adapts the pedal where it should be.

Interested in following the electric steering install.

I sometimes see LT engines cheaper than LS engines around here.

I've been kind of "old school" in that I've "preferred" hydraulic steering over electric even though I had never really tried it, but I've been driving my son's Golf GTI and can't say I notice any difference.

Keep on posting.
