Alright everyone...

An update on this 4X4 to 2X4 deal.

I have loacated my donor vehicle.

1979 Big Block Suburban that Frank mentioned above. I am picking the vehicle up soon.

I will then start stripping the Blazer down more than it already is (even though is is pretty much just a drivable shell right now)

So not only am I converting 4X4 to 2X4, I am also swapping in the big block as well.

The process will take some time I am sure due to my work schedule but I am going to take some photos of eveything along the way and try to do a decent job of detailing things.

As Frank mentioned above this Burban will have the heavy duty brakes, has a 4 core radiator and the 454/ TH400 combo will be great. The front and rear brakes will be heavier duty and the rear end ratio on the Burban is prolly much better than my current twelve bolt.

Thanks for all the input so far.

Regards,

Stacey
