So I go out to look at the engine I am putting in this thing its been sitting on the side of my building for about three years under a canvas cover, around a fence and not visable from the street and somebody has stolen the headers off of it.
They were headman 68600 shorty that had been Jet Hot coated kind of pissed but more feel sorry for the idiot who stole them. I can afford to replace them no big deal but to be in such a mess that you have to go steal a set of headers off an engine, mind you they are really only good for V8 Astro Van swaps, that new were only like $79.00 the jet Hot was another $100 and they were used, you are in a sad state.
The only reason I was planning on using them was because I had them and the exhaust I have will bolt to them. Long tubes fit better and you can change the plugs easier.
So now I get to pick out a new set of headers

So Blazer showed up at like 9 pm last night got no pictures yet.
So anybody ever seen a Blazer that was 4x4 converted to 2x4 I have.
not sure what smiley face to put there.
It is rust free has a bit back side of passenger rear tires just bubbles
does have a sunroof cut in the roof
interior isn't bad needs some cleaning and some little stuff
is a 76 not a 74 I will get some pics up today after work
Not quite sure where to go with it now
reconvert it
have a 60/14 bolt 350/400/205 that would go right in it
keep it like it is
soft top hard top
sell it
so going to dwell on it for a day or two and figure it out

I say, swap in all the big goodies from the burb, then wheel the wee out of it.
But I have goodies not in the burb to do that with, but why build another wheeler.
Maybe swap the moter /trans from one ton

I always thought Tacoma out in two-will-a was the man for Chevy parts but it sound like Hooper may be better
Congrats on the new project

If I were closer I'd be all over that. I've got a hot big block I pulled out of my drag car that would be perfect for that thing.

The whole thing is basically rust free.
I only want what I paid for it it evan has a 2wd th400 that I will keep it you want to make an offer to me less the cost of a core tranny.
Add is in the for sale section too.
