Prom queen goes Ls

Been after this for a while, and felt since I have gotten so much info & ideas out of this great forum, that I would at least try and share my journey. ...
Right off the bat let me tell you I am trying to do this on a budget but at the same time I don't want to step over a Dollar to pick up a dime.
What we are after is a simple swap that can give us lots of reliable miles to enjoy, without too much "Bling"

Very nice.

I did the 5.3 /4L60E swap in my 71 2wd Blazer runs so good and it just made it a blast to drive.

The magic of the internet, I have been on this for over a year !
and my friend Tom Vogel knows this...
that master is a 8inch dual diaphragm with an aluminum master.
The brackets are the short ones and I had to bend the shifter lever
in order for the gear shifter to get into Park.
everything in that setup came from Cpp. (which by the way, I happen to be a dealer for... )

Does Cpp use aluminum bores, or do they sleeve the m/c?
