I looked at one of these Trailblazer editions of the S10 Blazer that was for sale in Russellville Arkansas. I wanted to call them and ask some questions about it but it disappeared the next day. You didn't happen to buy yours in Arkansas did you. Same color and all.

I've had this one for 3 years. Bought it at a GM auction as it was coming off a 3 year lease. The back seat had never been sat in. It was in amazing condition! It had every option except On Star.

I'll post a progress report and new pictures on Friday. The oil pan and the headers have been a pain in the butt!
It's finally going together. I hope to have a completion schedule on Friday also.

Did something different with the A/C bracket also. Managed to get a tensioner on it with the blower.

It's a project that's like making a good stew. Damn slow, but good when done!

Default It's on the road!

It's finally on the road!

Here's a short video. On a "canned" tune, O2 sensors are in the 1080 range, zero knock on a Tech II, IAT's at around 120.

Still needs a few things re-installed, needs 3.73's in the rear, posi, dyno tune from Ed Wright.

One of the main reasons..............pull through a tollbooth next to a Cobra, Lightning, Porsche,etc......and when they start to pull away......hit the loud pedal.

We don't have the blower but we have 4 doors.........

Did you see the one I built for work this year? We even pulled a trailer 16 hour round trip to the lsx shoot out with it.


I'm not sure if you used the 2.8 lower engine mounts in your conversion, but we have poly 2.8 style mounts we will be offering to the public soon.
