Small stuff, found out my th350 was actually a th350c (been awhile since I used old school trannies) so I'm waiting on trans shop to finish my trans and converter. Hopefully have it up and running in next few weeks.
I MIGHT change cosmentic plans for it tho. I'm thinking flat black, fat black steel wheels all around with fat tires, side exhaust thru the both fenders with stainless plates.... kinda the vision. But that will be after I get it all going lol

I will post pics later this week. Texas summer heat sucks along with bugs/mesquitos. Garage door open and night while I work on it = bug bitten.

Alright fellas, quick update!
Wastegates are fully plumbed in and vented to the heavens. Blow off valve is plumbed in. Cold side is nicely coated. Gonna start hitting it hard now that the blazer is officially sold and going to its new owner in NY.
Pics!

***UPDATE
Finished the front suspension tonight. Sitting a lot better now, much easier to lean over the fenders now haha.
Tomarrow I will remove the bed and start on the c-notch and flip for the rear. Why it's off, fuel pumps going in along with solid welded rear diff.
Back needs to be dropped pretty bad...
