1987 Shortwide, paint that blazer & those ralleys fleet white & that's what me & my x-wife had. That was a sweet little ride (the blazer). It had the 4.3/700R4/3.42's & did a pretty decent 18'ish around town, 20+ on the hwy.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Depending on what mileage you are getting would have to factor in also.

I've got the same drivetrain as you are describing scoti, however, I'm going to have to go with my wilder side and go satin black with red ralleys here pretty soon

I ran in to him the other day on another forum. I told him Well it's been a long time since I've seen you, You're looking good, Can't begin to tell how much I've missed you
I wish I could, But I like what you're wearing,
and he laughed. I miss him no matter how many dumb questions he asked....
