Wow nice ride dude! Welcome to the community!

[YZF]

That would be a fun truck to own...

I like the front end swap too.

[KissMyWhtSS]

Truck looks sick.

I'm kinda kicking myself in the ass for not buying this turbo 6.0L swapped 2000 Blazer that was for sale recently.

That Blazer was bad ass. And it went CHEAP!

[lower90xcab]

thanks for the comments guys....it was a blast to drive with the 4.3l and tko swap...when i swapped the 4.10s and 12bolt in, it changed the whole truck...cannt wait for it to be done...i might have to start a build thread...the truck has come a long way since i bought it in june of 04....thanks again!!!

[Kriegerehre]

i like how simple and clean the truck is - presents itself well.

[BLOWNDFIZ]

Nice Ride! You ever get down to Indy for street legal drags on Tuesday's? Maybe I'll see you there once the truck is done.

[lower90xcab]

i was down for the drags about this time last summer..the truck still had the 4.3l/auto setup...it was really slow...bad fuel pump, plugged up cat plus 90 degree temps made for some really slow times...i still had a blast and yes im hoping to be down there on some tues next summer....

[lower90xcab]

[VTEC THIS]

I have so much family up in Lafayette. I travel up there at least 3 times a year.

[lower90xcab]

do you ever bring the car up here??

[VTEC THIS]

Yeah usually it's the Talon. It's Black, with black Enkei wheels, shaved spoiler and lowered a bit from the previous owner I guess. You guys are strict up there, my grandma didn't let me park in the yard because it's against the law? Anyways it's a nice town, I almost went to Purdue as I got accepted but chose to stay in my hometown.

[lower90xcab]

thats cool.....give me a shout next time your are in town....

[VTEC THIS]

I'll be up in October to visit my brother who attends Purdue. Where is the closest raceway to you? I remember being told Delphi, or something.

[lower90xcab]

there is ORP in indy and then there is US41 about 90mins north of here.....
