I dont have a et for you yet will soon, I hope. I am 41 and this lil blazer is my dream. I have always like trucks, have owned a lot of lowered street pounders. I have always wanted a backhalfed car or truck, and it is almost complete. 83 chevy s10 2wd blazer. 24" ladderbar backhalf clip S&W, art morrison 10pt cage, weld draglites (my fav) 15x3 front and 15x12 rear, hoosier quicktime pros 29x14.5 , 355 mild sb went 13.80 in full size long bed 1/2 ton truck, 350 turbo 3600 vert, mopar 8 3/4 , 4:30 gears,spool, with dutchman axels. I have a dream and a goal of someday going in the 10's, right now will be in the 12's and that is ok, I am a poor boy bracket racer, and I just want to race. I have a awsome wife and together we have got this bracket thing almost done. I live 120 miles from the closest track, but have a 07 duramax crew cab to get us there, and a 24 ft tag to put it in. I might be slow, but I will be happy, as long as I am racing!!!! 8)

Mark,

You have worked your ass off to get where you are and I commend you for your accomplishments.

I know you will have so much fun in that lil ole blazer, The first time home you will have a grin on your face that will take a week to wear off.

I cannot wait to see how she does....I still think I need to plan a late fall road trip up your way.

you are most defiante hooking that thing up,,seems like your MPH should be in the 110 /111 mph range and 6.0's to high 5.90's with that 60 ft

what gear are you running and what is the motor turning thru the lights...i did see where you stated it was wrong converter...( loose i assume)..

Hey great numbers !!!..if i had a problem i would want it on the BIG end..much easier to diagnosis..... :D :D :D


Plus..i wish my 67 camaro had that 60ft you had....i would be running 5.50's....
