Gio did you ever figure out the starter going click click , I have a very good idea whats wrong . Theres a purple wire that goes to the starter from the ignition it runs just behind the harmonic balancer . My blazer did the same thing and then finally one day it melted the whole damm wire . And also if you have any problems with the cpi unit let me know , I have 2 one like brand new , and you'de be welcome to them .
