Re: "Baby" - My 79 Blazer Project

I hope to have some more photos soon.
I have been doing a heart transplant on the old girl.
It originally had the 305 with a T350.
I was having real bad oil issues, bad pressure, bad blow by.
The pump and the front seal were shot.

I ripped that engine out and took the T400 out of one of my Hot Rods and mated it to a 1992 454 I have. I put that in last night along with all new Energy Suspension motor mount inserts and new tranny mount.

I pre fit the engine and everything was cool. I took it back out to do a little detail work and add a few things and went to stick it back in and now have some clearance issues.
Thank God these Blazer's transmission mounts bolt in. I am going to have to remove the bolts and slide it back a few inches due to the new combo.
I will hopefully get it all buttoned up tonight.

I have been shooting pictures a long the way and will post those when I am done.
