So im probably getting the truck tomorrow. It keeps getting pushed back a day and im getting frustrated. But on the good news, he let me keep my head unit and i took my steering wheel cover =] but he didnt get the blazer yet.

Also, he said it has a non posi rear end, so its 1 wheel peel. And i really dont want 1 wheel peel with a 350. So what are my options for rear ends?

Alright well i got the s10 guys!!!! the guy started it and drove it into my parking spot off his trailer, but when i tried to drive it, it had trouble starting, and later down the road, bogged out on me. Im new to carburated engines and am worried. everyone says i have a great truck on my hands but i have such an un easy feeling in my stomach to have something that barely runs.

What is the weather like down there? If it's cool (unlikely, I know since you're in FL) you have to pump the gas peddle once or twice to prime the choke on the carb.
