Another Toy

[Rannos]

I sold an 85 s10 blazer to my brother awhile back that I was doing a v8 swap in. I am now getting the truck back and want to do 7.0 Index with it. I am curious if anyone knows what these trucks weigh with an iron headed sbc and turbo 400 in them. Also what size tires can I squeeze under one of these things with out cutting? Any suggestions on setting up the leaf springs? Never really done much with a leaf spring car.
