Blower is going in tonight!!
So we got the motor assembled and the blower installed too. Pardon the old school valve cover's I will be ordering some that arent so outdated as well as a air cleaner .... I got impatient (and short on $$$) so I decided to add the other stuff later. Anyway, we're going to get it put back in the blazer tonight and probably spend tomorrow tuning. I know a blower is kind of old school and outdated but I think they look and sound so awesome!!!
Sorry for the crappy cell phone pic

Re: It's going in tonight!!!
I am currently looking for a roots style blower kit for my 94 blazer I know B&M used to make one for tbi chevys but I can't get any info. That is going to be one seriously cool blazer you have.

Re: It's going in tonight!!!
So its in but still isnt running but not too far off. Just need to adjust the valves, install the clutch fan, and then figure out all the vacuum stuff and carb jetting ....
Here is a pic of it in, looks like its just barely going to clear the hood. I thought I would take a couple pictures of my friends shop and his yard full of cars and trucks. These pictures only cover about half of what he has, I figured some of you might want to see some of his junk ha ha
