New LSx guy...

Well, we're back on track. I picked up a short block with 156k on it from Spaldings, a recycler on the other side of the state...lol. I've got a buddy picking it up for me, hopefully this weekend. They usually only deal with complete engines, so finding a shortblock that they didnt want to deal with was a score for me

Well...still here..lol. Progress has been slow. Still waiting on my short block to be delivered, a buddy picked it up, he just hasn't had a chance to get to this side of the state. I also picked up my 4l80, hopefully drop it off for rebuild in the next couple weeks. Hopefully, I'll be mocking everything up over the next week or so here to try and get something moving again..

Cool builds! Welcome to the forum

Thanks


I'm still here, plugging along. I finally got my short block. I'm gonna try to get it up on the stand and tear it down next week. I'm also picking up the entire dash, steering column and gauge cluster assembly from the '05 I pulled the original motor/wiring out of and sectioning it to fit in the Blazer, it will make wiring alot easier, and I'll have access to all the factory gauges, which will be nice.

Well, I guess I'll bring this poor thing back from the dead..lol. I picked up a set of 243 heads, super low mile take-offs off a c6, only 600 or so miles on them. Since they've got WAY fewer miles on them than anything I've got, it made sense. Plus I'll get a little bump in compression, so that will help out a bit. I've got a couple other projects on the burner, so this one is gonna take a while.

Here are a couple shots of what's been taking up my time for the last couple months...
