Bucketlist Blazer -Restomod build 6.6liter L8T

Well, I started my project. I bought my 72 K5 about a year and a half ago with plans to do a 2wd swap. I wanted to have an autocross capable rig. Well as you know, a 2wd Blazer is cost prohibitive so I got the white 4wd at a great price in great condition.

I am a huge car stereo guy from way back so I immediately did my audio build and enjoyed working on it until I got a time suck new job. I was able to enjoy the Blazer every now and then but I worked too much. Fast forward....I got laid off a few weeks ago due to a 500 person downsizing (Terrible company earnings report).

So I did what any right minded dude would do. I sold off a bunch of cult classic audio gear to fund my "winter layoff project". Two days ago I bought a 6.6 liter L8T motor and 2wd 6l90E liftout for a steal! I got it for $3k less than market value. The combo has only 25,000 miles on it.

Pausing the post because I am at the gym in the hottub......To Be Continued
