I can build one of the following:

a 66 scout has title runs currently

83 s-10(no title)doesn't run

84 k5 has title doesn't run

my parts list is as follows

3/4 ton with 4.10's
1/2 tons with 3.40 ish
xj jeep with 3.73's

35" mickey thompsons
37" ssr's
36" sx's

built 350 (making a solid 350 horse on the dyno)
rebuilt 305 was a tbi motor with a cam to please the computer
stock 350

th350-208
465-208
465-205
th350-s-10np207
t-18 to dana20

everything from stock springs (52, 56, 57 and 64's) to jeep coils

so which combo would you build?
 
put the s dime body on the blazer chassis and run the built 350/350/208 combo with the 3/4 ton axles and 4.10's on the 35" mickeys

just my .02

I think the scout body on the blazer chassis would look cooler:D
 
I vote for the Scout. I am doing a Jeepster Commando body on K5 chassis and I want to fit 37's on it with as little lift as possible, I want to keep it long, low and wide for stability.

Good luck!

Not sure on the springs for the Scout chassis.
 
i'm buying the scout and the k5. running the scout as is. selling the s-10 and parting the blazer out. ( I only paid $100 each)
