Exclamation Hello There! Check Me Out!!!

Hi everyone, my name is Austin, Ive been a proud blazer owner since I was 16, and I am now 26. Ive been through 3 different Blazers until I finally found the one that makes me happy, and have dumped probably too much time and effort into it, but its getting closer to just the way I want it. Im driving a 1984 Chevrolet K5 Blazer. Ive taken out the original 350 it came with, and built a 454, now bored .060 over making it a 468. The local dyno has me at 527 BHP, with 478 Horses at the rear wheel. Its backed by a Turbo 400 transmission, and the NP205 gear driven transfer case. The differentials are a corporate 14 bolt GM in the rear, and a GM 10 bolt in front, both with 4.10 gears. This helps push the 37" MT/R tires, in fact I can smoke them with ease, in 2wd or 4wd. It currently has a 6" Rough Country lift system with new springs and shocks. In the past 3 years, I have invested $12,800 not including purchasing the truck itself. I bought it from a local friend, he never drove it, and wanted a gas miser, so I traded my 88 Toyota pickup that I no longer drove, and $2,000. When it was purchased, It had no lift, GM 10 bolts with 3.73 gears, and the motor was completely shot. I guess I wont continue to ramble, but hey, check me out! I hope to become an active member, and have done all the work on this thing myself, so Im fairly knowledgeable in Blazers. Hit me up! Hello!
