Mod suggestions for my 81 jimmy?

[81k5Jimmy]

I got my jimmy about 3 years ago when i was 14. My grandpa bought it new and it was completely stock when i got it. Since then ive put in a new cam and lifters, dual exhaust, holley 4-barrel, 4" lift, new wheels/tires, black paint, racing seats, stereo, and linexed the whole thing. Anything else i should do?

Well you just answered your own question.

 

[81k5Jimmy]

cant do that yet either

get stuff u can switch over to other parts of ur truck,like an intake manifold,u can always put it on another motor in the future.

I want to drop in a deisel.

ur talking about a 12v cummins right? the 6.2 that came in old chevys is in my eyes pointless. unless u build them up and turbo them. then ur ok,but still no where near a 12v cummins.

 

[81k5Jimmy]

the 6.2 is junk. i would probably put in a 4bt.

 

[shaun89]

i would go with the 12v

i would go with the 12v

12V in a Blazer? You're nuts! I'd prolly do it if I could.

 

[81k5Jimmy]

12v would be badass. it would take all new suspension work though.

 

[shaun89]
