Re: '72 Blazer 4wd getting all the best

Re: '72 Blazer 4wd getting all the best
Just ordered the New Hydroboost system. Can not wait to start throwing it all together, as I know mock up sucks, but worth it in the end.

Re: '72 Blazer 4wd getting all the best
Yea the Coil covers are nice, but make sure you have the room to bolt them on. If I was installing a LS1 in the 2wd crossmember. I would hit the firewall and they would not work. They are as big as a big block Valve cover.

Re: '72 Blazer 4wd getting all the best
Tallon Hydrolics, Nice guy told him what I was doing and he is setting it up to send all the appropriate fittings for a LS-1 and the correct pump, with the correct steering box.
Very Very nice guy

Re: '72 Blazer 4wd getting all the best
Is this specifically made to bolt to the 67-72 firewall and use the stock pedal linkage?

It was a great experience to talk to someone that new what the motor was from the Steering is a 2wd box for the crossover steering, and then all the connections needed with the T-Splices.

If you look @ the Mount. You will see it has a bracket that slides on the end of the tube. You see the (4) bolt holes. We made a C Channel that slides in the frame notch. This allowed us to bolt that were we needed it, and then we bolted the cross member to it. If that don't help I will try and post pictures the only ones I have right now is it sitting on the bottom rail of the frame.

Re: '72 Blazer 4wd getting all the best
Had to upload this pic. I am a little excited to see the gauges in the Billet housing so much I could not wait to show it with the the cut out it is getting to flush mount the shift indicator, and with the powder coating, and polishing done.
I took this about a month ago, and forgot to show it off. Ow well it is getting a lot of work done right now.

Re: '72 Blazer 4wd getting all the best
I noticed the push button start! Where did you get that one from? I am looking into one too because the stock ignition switch no longer fits in mine. Awesome Build! keep the updates coming.

I found out from the Body guy even before he got started that the frame May be tweeked, He thinks It has either seen a ditch or something. As I do not want to find out, and or put up fighting it all its life if it is true, redoing all that has been done, crossmember, etc.... I am thinking about swithing gears and using everything on my 67 truck. gotta love the interchangable parts.
