Re: Project Family Truckster: 2wd Conversion Turbo LSx Blazer Build

Well....sometimes procrastination is the fastest way to get things done. That is certainly the case with my turbo hot-side. Really glad I didn't fab it all up with the body off....because i would have been REALLY pissed when I saw this.



Piss.

Luckily, I have sets of manifolds from like 4 different LS powered vehicles kicking around the shop, and the good ol' flipped truck manifold was the clear winner. Time to do a bunch more grinding.





I like the stance much better, after I reworked the rear suspension to drop it another 1.5"







Getting the body back on was another infusion of motivation that I needed.

Also, here is why I used the seats I did.
