I got my plate frame and a billet air cap from Phil at Philbuilt Designs a couple days ago:



The quality is unreal.

I ended up purchasing the following for my intake:

4.00" - 4" Straight: http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-4-0-Inch-102mm-Silicone-Straight-Coupler-two-T-Bolt-clamps-Black-USA-/261266323297?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item3cd4afb761

4.00" - 90* Elbow: 90* Elbow

4.00" - 45* Elbow: http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-4-0-Silicone-Coupler-hose-45-degree-elbow-Black-102mm-two-T-bolt-clamps-/271259296637?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item3f2850637d

Air Filter:Spectre - HPR9615K

I will use a piece of 4.00 Aluminum tubing as the intake. It will be very similar design to Hotwires intake:



I realize the silicone 4 ply couplings I bought are OVERKILL, especially with the stainless t-clamps, as I am not boosted. They should be delivered within the next week or so so I'll post pictures when I go pick them up.

I also purchased:

CPW - Engine Management Fuse Block Assembly and some LS1 Fan Pigtails

Energy Suspension - 3.3162G Control Arm Bushing Set

I went to the Auto wreckers and picked up an OBD II Diagnostic Port from a NBS Silverado. While I was there I pulled a 2nd gen coolant overflow tank with the computer mount and a cruise control module from the NBS Silverado but the yard wanted way too much so I left it there.

OBDII Port

Hey guys,

Sorry I never updated this thread - I ended up focusing on finishing up the thread on S10forum. The truck has been running and driving for about 6 or 7 years now and I love it.

Most of the photos dont work anymore because of Photobucket but here's the link anyways: https://www.s10forum.com/threads/pro...e-swap.519642/

And this is my current project that I've shifted fosus to since the Blazer - it also has a 6.0 LQ4.

I follow both. lol

BTW, I see you're having the same problem on here that I did. When you paste from Flickr, if you don't delete the second URL tag, it posts duplicate pics.
