Nice looking truck - I really like the square body S-10's I built a V8 short cab/short bed like yours and also a 2wd V8 blazer (TPI 350) - You never see them around here as they all rusted away.

Keep up the good work.

Holidays came around soaked up all my time. Then a deal went south purchasing a home... That soaked up the rest of my time.... Now that Im homeless and the holidays are passed, I had time to fix the failed fuel pump and spend more money on useless shiny parts hahah!

I had a aeromotive 380? (I think?) pump. It went bad in 15 mins of idle time. Its junk and a waste of money. So I up graded a little to the walboro 400lph pump.

Nope unfortunately I dont... Ive been dealing with severe belt slip issues since the install. I was very stubborn and I really really wanted the blower on the passenger side because of weight distribution, but it looks like I am going to have to cave and purchase a Procharger built truck bracket to try and get this belt slip figured out... It wont make more then 5psi no matter what I do.
