The 5.3 Blazer build

Glad to see you have a build thread here! That LS1 intake looks right at home there!

GM changed the waterpump on the trucks, so the 07 and up make a great replacement for anyone wanting to put an LS1 or LS6 intake on the Vortecs. It eliminates the clearance issue with the throttle body, especially on the electric ones. And you don't have any alignment problems with the new truck pump also.

Thanks for hooking me up with the Intake Bob!

The water pump a little pricey but still cheaper than vette or F-body FEED!

The harness work was the most time consuming. I bought the relay box from current and the Injector plugs from EFI Connection along with other plugs and connectors. Really wasn't that bad doing all the work, just had to take my time! Still saved me about $600 bucks doing it myself.

Just moving along with the Chassis harness now. I found a lovely family of mice in my dash! They ate up almost all the insulation on the wires, and started on the hard plastic! I live in the country, and that's Life!! Just hate the smell of mouse piss!

Sunday I ripped what was left of the old wiring, and should have the new wiring in this week! The only thing I need is parts blazer, manly the dash and hard plastics. I missed one this weekend, 89' 4wd 2dr blown engine for $200 bones! Clean old truck, inside was spot less!

Another Question Bob. Who did your computer tuning? I'm thinking Fast Chip might do mine. But thought I'd ask you and others who else?

Thanks again!
