New to the Forums
Hello all.
 New to the forums. I have been getting info from this site for a while, so I figured why not join? I have a 72' K5 4x4. 350TBI/700R4/Np205 on a 14bff rear and 8 lug D44 front. Body and ride height are stock (for now). Drivetrain is done, next is bodywork. It's my daily driver, so when the snow dissapears and the summer car comes out I will do the body. If I ever get a digital camera I will post some pics. Looking forward to conversing with like minded Blazer addicts.

Re: New to the Forums
Welcome to the board. I think there is at least one other member up in the Edmonton area.
You can always take pictures with a normal camera and have a CD made when you get the film developed...

Re: New to the Forums
The Blazer is my daily driver. For the 700R4 conversion I used the AA output shaft and moved the engine ahead 1-3/4". It was actually pretty easy. How does 2000 RPM at 60 MPH with 4:11's sound? Pretty quiet actually, even with headers and 2-1/2" Flowmasters! Overdrive is the best mod I've done to both of my vehicles (72' K5 and 69' Beaumont)
BTW the 72' K5 is the newest vehicle I own!
