Re: blazer progress

Nice progress. What headers are you using? They look to be ceramic coated.

Re: blazer progress

I am using ceramic coated headders by headman. They are available from summit racing for about 300.00 bucks.

Re: blazer progress

The blue on the fire wall is that the color you are going to paint your Blazer? What size tires and wheels, and how much lift? It looks great.

The firewall color is a tad bit lighter than what is to be painted on the outside. I went with 15x12 rims and pro comp 33 tires all under a 4 inch lift. If I was keeping the blazer....I might have gone a larger lift. I was affraid that going to large of a lift will scare off people. Thanks for the complements.

Re: blazer progress

I like those headers too. Mine are rusty eye sores. How long will the ceramic coated headers look good?

Re: blazer progress

Rims look sweet on your K5. Great job on the engine.

I have Dynomax ceramic headers on my K20 and they have been on for over a year and look like they did when I put them on.
