BUYER BEWARE BLAZER - SBC 350 EFI Conversion PART 3 - UTX

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Today at Ugly Truck, we're installing the FiTech EFI and fuel system on the 1987 Chevy Blazer. This squarebody has been full of surprises, but we're finally ready to start this SBC 350 "crate engine" for the first time. This truck is in line for a 6.0 LS swap, so we already have the LS cooling system installed, and this fuel pump will run the 6.0 as well.

    Ok. Watched the video on a bigger screen than my phone, counted spiders…1)6:08 spider on Emily’s jeans. 2)15:27 tiny spider hanging from a single strand on the right rear bumper. 3)16:21 tiny spider in a small web at rear left front wheel well. 4)16:29 a little bit bigger spider in another web, front side of left front wheel well. 5)25:00 bigger spider in hood insulation. How did I do?

Check out 1:02:26 on the orange wire crimpers! 🕷 I'm working on some new UTX swag, and I'll be sure to send you one for your exceptional spider hunting skills! Thanks for playing, Jon!

But until then, maybe I can work on some of the other issues on the Blazer!

    Great video. Rotten gas ? Mix it with the old motor oil and burn it in your garage heater during the winter. Everything goes thru mine including mineral spirits and contaminated reducer from cleaning my paint guns. I'll be watching the SL swap, shouldn't be to bad with the fuel system in place.

    Hello Ken. If it isn't to bad, I run it through a 72 c10 that I drive to use it up. The 350 that is in it seems to run on anything I throw at it. I have had some fuel run through the waste heater and it made us a bit nervous. Been thinking of a way to mix the oil while it is waiting to be burnt so it is not separated so bad. Jerry

    great video until the "other people's project gremlin"showed it's ugly head!!Man I've been there my brother and I once installed a 350 in my cousins truck that ran great until we went to top up the anti-freeze and it came up the oil dipstick because someone had left water in the block and it had froze and left a 2"by 4" hole behind the push rods.I'm glad you got the EFI working my nephew has that system on his 78 Z28 on top of a 455 Oldsmobile and it works great.looking forward to the Gen4 swap Karl from eastern Canada

    Thanks Karl. I really didn't expect this one to go the way it did. I would love to know the real story on this project. We bought Emily's 70 c10 that was sold to us as a running truck. It ended up having a hole rusted through the cylinder wall to the cooling jacket. Olds 455. Nice!!! Thanks for tuning in. Jerry

    Hey Bobby. WE were hoping too. I can't wait to tear this engine apart someday for fun and see what is going on in there. We got down to the end of this and at least found out that the fuel system is working properly again. So it wasn't all bad. Thanks for watching. Jerry and Emily
