Thanks. I'm loving your 4x4 blazer. My C10 is the same color, dark olive green with lower wood trim. Love the combo. I just went from a 350 to a 402BB in the C10. It adds to the classic look under the hood, but I would have ended up with more power and fuel economy with a LS for the same cost by the time I was all said and done. The pulleys were a pain in the ass for the BB. Still, not regrets about the big block.
