Re: 78 2wd Blazer - LS Swap and more..

Well with the oil pressure as low as it is, we decided to get the 6.0 pulled out. The PO told me it had about 80k miles on it. Well, I think he must have forgot to carry the 1 a time or two. There isn't even bearing material left, it's just the backing material. What I didn't get pictures of was the rings and how caked they are. We couldn't even rotate the oil ring and the 1st and 2nd ring are so bad we slipped the piston right back into the hole with minimal work.
