Just signed up with the credit union at my work. Headin over to their place today to see if i can try to get a $2,000 loan. Wish me luck guys!

Will that be enough for a rebuild? If not, id like to buy a nice used engine, and get some nice externals, msd igniton, red top battery, h/o alternator etc.

 

Dude i wouldn't want to rebuild the engine if I were you. The block itself is probably shot.

Your best bet is option number 2.

 

Well im at the office right now, the signature loan, for cash, is about 16%, so that's a negative. Im going for a $5000 or $6000 used car loan at about 9%. Get myself a new used blazer!

 

you should be able to get a nice 4x4 blazer for that money then you can part yours out and recoup some money

 

I agree and possibly have some extra money for some mods.

 

get a block with fresh heads and time chain and just take the rest off your old engine and replace it on the new block . btw GL on your loan

 

Nah, get an Xtreme.

You won't be able to go mudding, though...

 

4x4 over an xtreme any day ;p

 

Depends on what your driving style and use for the truck is. If you live in a rural area where theres plenty of trails, then hell yea! 4x4 and lin-nerd skin-nerd crankin all the way!!! But if your in an urban area with plenty off asphault and booty bass shakin, and you know how to "drift" the night away, bust an extreme.

Just my 2 cents.

 

They also make these things called GMC Syclones See if you can nab one of em
