I cannot sell parts from this thread, I've been warned.

lynnfield · 07-09-2013, 08:28 PM

I ordered a set of Trailblazer SS manifolds from fastmotorsports.net yesterday. For anyone else wanting to use these, they have a bunch of these manifolds $50 plus shipping for a pair. Mine were $79 to my door. I looked on a couple TBSS forums, but this was the best price I was able to find. Greg

When I talked to Katie this morning I told her about this site and she said she has had a few orders for these used manifold. I mentioned this site and that was the reason for the run on TBSS manifolds

SeTx67 · 07-12-2013, 01:15 AM

Katie and Brandon at fast are good people

lynnfield · 07-14-2013, 09:14 PM

Sooo, there I am, under the truck working on the 5 lug disc conversion when I decide to take a look at how the tank is gonna fit.............and there it is..........

Riveted1 · 08-09-2013, 02:38 AM

Haha! That's a Texas truck! What did you expect?! (I'm from TX btw) Is it gone yet?

lynnfield · 10-15-2013, 08:03 PM

Been away for a while, work has been busy and both the kids are in sports. What can I say? As of right now I have the disc brake conversion done, rebuilt the posi unit in the rear end and removed the mess that was the trailer hitch. I still need to replace the rear crossmember, but I plan on doing that later. As soon as it stops raining, I am going to push the 70' out and put the 06' in and start pulling the engine from the donor.
