    Well.... Thank You. I really try hard to keep things as realistic as possible. and spread my know-how to others. I know where the flaws are in and on my Blazer. I'm just a hard working honest guy. In the end, you really just have to please yourself.

    @Gary Fraser I'm glad you like it. I get what your saying about a real 396, but too heavy with less horsepower and lower MPG with a carb.

    Why the 2001 blazer front spindles?also we're those spindles a direct bolt on or did u have to modify them to work?

    @Patrick dubuc I was going to replace the old spindles with 2" lowered ones. I found out on KZread that the 2001 Blazer ones have better built in bearings in them and I get dual piston calipers to boot ( the old ones were single piston) best of all they bolt on with no mods needed.
