Sounds like a good plan. I'm guessing you'll be running racing gas? :smoker:

nope e85 same as the s10.
gona go ahead and get some afr195s for it. too.
got the motor out looks very good inside.bearings look brand new. crank rods and pistons are like new. was easy to take apart no sludge. may have been a new rebuild. taking the motor to machine shop for hot tank and new cam bearings, then building, oh balancing the crank to the new rods and pistons. too. got some new pics ill get them up.

im using a ported m 155 oil pump and ported main cap for flow. also cleaning up all oil passages in motor and painting the inside for oil drain back

got the short block back and started to assemble

decided to use a set of double humps i already had to be just a tad more street minded. and cheaper for now. will do afrs down the road when i get more serious about its power. i already started to port on them now. should have a few pics in the next week

Awesome! Keep us posted on how it goes.

I like where you're going with this. I can't wait to see the AFRs bolted up. I like the e85 setup too. Any power difference running e85 versus fossil fuel?

**mattsv8_03** · 12-01-2009, 07:43 AM

the turbo setup in the s10 is on e85. and i love it i started using e85 on my nos 355 and withing the 3rd pass i was going faster than either 112 or 114 on spray or motor. so im shure the blazer will love it.
decided to use a set of double humps for now just to get it running before winter. i ported them 8hrs each. and its back in the blazer now. just a few odds and ends to finish up. hope to have it running by the weekend.
ill post a few new pics when i wake back up.

**mattsv8_03** · 12-01-2009, 04:30 PM

its installed a few up date pics of port work. not finished i later gasket matched the intake and exh. and polished the exh.

he was helping its his blazer after all

what u guys think?

**blazin4low** · 12-01-2009, 07:29 PM

looks a hell of alot better than before.......what all did you have to do to get the motors running on e85?

**mattsv8_03** · 12-02-2009, 08:49 AM

diffrent fuel pump. some steel lines or an lines and a e85 carb that i converted to e85. thats all.
