Re: Blazer fuel tank in '63 K15

If it fits, maybe I can upgrade the pump?
The 6.0? Well, after a little soul searching, the 6.0L turned out to not be exactly what I wanted. I'll be doing alot of towing with this truck and I think the 7.4 will be alot better for the relentless flogging that I'm gonna dish out. If the '63 was my DD, I'd probably run the 6.0. I also like the fact that the 7.4 will almost drop in with little modification to mounts, exhaust ect. I really couldn't pass this engine up though - complete with all accessories, computer and harness in trade for a $150 Scat crank. Just wish I'd have figured it out before I rebuilt the 6.0.Guess I better change my sig!
Thanks for the info Captainfab! I'm still all ears for any input.
