New Guy from California
I got my blazer about 3 months ago just had the 350 motor rebuilt with a mild cam and updated to electric choke edlebrock carb. I've been doing a lot of little things like weatherstipping, replaced dented gas tank to an aftermarket polyurethane, replaced 2 row radiator for 4 row, installed used back seat from later model, and many other little things i can't think of right now. I still have a ways to go but have to slow down now because of the budget. I'm having some tranny problems and looking for parts to my hatch. Hope to find some answers when i figure out where to post these issues.
 Going to try to post pics, hope this works. |

Re: New Guy from California
