1972's lil brother
This is the lil brother to the 72. I was going to copy it doing the blazer in white with some black chrome big wheels...But I dont think I am going to go that direction any more.

Re: 1972's lil brother
Damn that sucks, Cause the SS is a hell of a nice ride and they run and respond great to a few mods...

Re: 1972's lil brother
the 4.10's do keep a TBSS from returning a decent mpg....something like 3.23's, or even 3.08's would be better on the hiway.
With the overdrive you can still peg the speedo though. (provided you've gotten rid of the 130mph limiter)

Re: 1972's lil brother
O yeah it is all tuned and made great power with all the bolt-ons...We were going to build a turbo set-up for it, but I bought the blazer and so one project at a time...I am going to put 3:55's in it or 3:73's with a bigger converter than what i have now...
