O.K., I will do that in the next day or two.



I have tons but they were before I got my Dig., so it is not as easy.



It was quite a job, lots of customizing and fabbing little stuff.



I did use S-10 headers tho...\'course I had to cut and reweld them!

Well, it looks like I\'ll need to rescan them in to my hard drive. As soon as I do, I\'ll upload them.



Actually this was a job for a customer, The motor was a 355, ported heads, .510 hyd cam, raised dual plane 750 Holley.



I put the entire 4-wheel drive out of a Blazer, cast-iron transfer case and all.



He did not have the cash to replace the differentials, so I never jumped on it from a standstill, but it would move on down the highway pretty well.



Last I heard he was still driving it everyday (it was supposed to be a weekend toy) after 3 years.

My started out as a \'goof\' if ti worked than cool if not just some wasted time. I never intended mine to be a weekend toy It was designed for a snowplow truck, a 4place snowmobile triler hauler, car dolly puller and occansionaly the \"did something stupid\' toy. (Did a 4wheel burnout (actully donouts) in a dirt parking lot. and up comes a crusier with the bubble gum bulbs a flashing! fortunatley this time I knew him and Just got yelled out!! Felt like a kid who got yelled at for trying to touch a hot woodstove standing next to 30 peolpe! an ant could have stepped on me.
