I appreciate you and everyone else's input. You've all helped me feel more confident on what I am doing. And if I mess anything up I can always fix it later.

I think the motor will be going in the weekend of the 25th barring any setbacks. I've begun planning my fuel system. I'm thinking of going with the blazer tank. Anyone know if the LS fuel pumps fit right in to those late 80's blazer tanks people have been using in these ADs?
I used a 03 avalanche in my 89 blazer s10 2 door tank , worked good.
