Re: K/5 Tahoe build thread
Today was a bittersweet day...
The good: the events of the day have expedited my project schedule. Instead of driving my Blazer another summer, I will be starting to remove the tub, preparing it for installation on the Tahoe frame...
The bad: Today the Blazer died. After chasing my tail with a cheap fuel pump, overpressurizing the fuel system, swapping carbs, installing a regulator, then installing the correct fuel pump, I killed the engine. I haven't done a compression check yet, but I think a couple valves paid the price with too much fuel going into the cylinders...
The ugly: Time management. between working 2 jobs and the weekend activities of summer, I wasn't planning on a lot of project time in the garage until it got colder again. Oh well, anything I get done between now and then will be a bonus, right?
Stay tuned!
