TrailBlazer SS owners?

[68GMCCustom]

I've notice a couple of TrailBlazer SS owners here. Just curious w/o actually running a "poll"...
How many of "us" are planning on their TBSS as being a permanent member of the family?
Also, and just as important of question in my head was....how many of the TBSS owners here also own older trucks...and are doing (or planning) an LSx swap on their classic trucks?


oh..here's ours:



...and yes my '68 is getting an LSx swap!

[greens69]

I drive mine every day and love it!!

[68GMCCustom]

Thats two....as I see you also fancy older GM iron!

[68GMCCustom]

Oh come on....I know I've seen at least another '06, and a few other I think.

[crawdadfox]

I'm in....08 3SS 2wd.

[68GMCCustom]

There we go....thats 3!

Don't we have one or two more?

[drivewaycustoms]

+ 1 more,my family hauler.

Here's mine. This is actually my wifes daily driver. I did have an older truck, but sold it recently. I will be looking for another one down the road though, and I will probably look at the LSX swap pretty seriously. Anyway here are the few pics I have of our 06 here at work.



Here are a couple from a cruise I went on with some other local guys.

Our 06 again

[68GMCCustom]

thats 5! And not only older trucks...but LSX builds sprinkled thru!
I've seen one or two more here....

[silvereagle07]

I'm in! Here's my 07 2wd and yes I plan on doing a LSX swap later.

[68GMCCustom]

LOL.....looks like a trend! Thats 6.....do we have 7...maybe 8?

[Cherub]

Add me to the list. This is my wifes 2wd 3ss but i didnt leave it stock. lowered it and have all the typical bolt ons. My wife got hit by someone while it was parked at my parents house, Its on the to-do list but not fixed yet


and Here is my 82 lsx

[68GMCCustom]

GM are you paying attention? We have a trend here....and performance sells!

any more of us here?

[JohnC]

I am looking at adding the elec fans to mine. Has anyone else done that on theirs, and how do you like it?

[68GMCCustom]

I plan to as soon as my extended warranty is out. The system in these trucks isn't ideal for keeping them "cool". I've watched my trans temps approach the operating temp of 205-210...way too hot. I installed dual electric fans in my last truck and loved them. A/C was even cooler...especially while sitting still.

Just found this thread. Count me in. Sorry no pic handy, but mine is a 2007 TBSS Silver daily driver. I sold my corvette last year due to new baby on the way. No better way to haul the family. No LSX swaps here, the other toys use old school iron blocks. By the way I just did LS1 fan swap this past weekend. It was pretty straight forward, but you need the LS1 fan patch on the pcm to make it work. If you TBSS guys do not know already TBSSowners forum is great place for info just like 67-72 chevytrucks forum.

yeah...it used to be trailblazerss dot com...then things got political....and tbssowners was formed.

Here is my 2007 TrailBlazer SS Test Vehicle. This link provides a full modification list, videos and pictures - http://www.fquick.com/garages/Chevro...SS/2007/14026/

My wife drives a black 2008 3SS. I plan to convert my 48 GMC to LS by doing a full body drop on a TBSS 2wd when I find a donor. (similar to my 52 GMC/Envoy build)

Welcome to the thread guys! Glad to see theres more of us TBSS owners here, and particularly that many of us are building LSx powered classic/antique vehicles to boot.

Awesome looking TBSS LeftCoast! I'll have to check out your link. Is that hood available publicly or was it custom made?

The Functional Cowl Induction Hood is available from MPD1! There is an Airbox that works with the hood from CAI inc. Check out my website for TBSS modifications.

We are in the process of building a new GMPP LSX Block and GMPP LSX/LS3 Heads. We are running 20psi of Boost and a 250 Shot of Nitrous. We are shooting for between 1000-1250 Rear Wheel Horse Power with the new LSX 6 Bolt Block and Heads.

i think i qualify for the old iron and SS. It is a 07 LS-2 that i call my divorce package ride. I also am planning on a LS set up in a 61 bubbletop. Unless something else oldschool catches my eye. Im glad i ran across this thread.

Nice trucks Steve!

LC32.....is that a NANO system I'm seeing next to your nitrous bottle. If so...how are you liking the system?

The Nano is Great!! It maintains the perfect pressure from the start to finish of the bottle. It makes the tuning alot better because the nitrous pressure doesnt drop as you go down the track. The only down side is that you have to weigh the nitrous bottle to tell how much is left in it.

I am actively seeking a 2wd TBSS to cut up (wreck, salvage title, or not--I don't care) and use like most of the guys use an S-10. Just I like I did with the Envoy under my 52 Burb.
