2k to spend
So Im curious I have 2k to throw around. I drive an 01 Jimmy SLT. What could I have done/do to the car? I know its not much but I want to change something I guess. I am getting a new engine because I killed the last one. I just got the catalytic converter replaced. Any ideas I'm open to most things. I don't really know where to go from here and I kinda like the stock car but I want a change.

If I had 2k to spend on my Blazer I'd have the seats redone, and get some nice rims installed.

What are your goals for it? A nice, stock ride? Lowered, with a banging stereo? Drag strip? Off road?
If I had 2k to throw at it, half would go to a winch and mount, the other 1k to the 5.7L vortec swap |

With 2k you could easily do a junkyard budget LS swap and drop it a couple inches to get better handling.
If you're keen on sticking with the 4.3, could look into the marine 4.3 intake and turbo it |

You're gonna have to build the engine to live at the power levels you want to make. Throw some forced induction and heavy boost at a stock bottom end, it's not gonna last long.
Speed costs money, how fast you wanna go? And the benefit of the marine intake, is that you can run real injectors, instead of the poppet crap. That's my understanding, at least |

I does fine I can hit an average of 50mph on the entrance of 100ish degree corners and pull out at 80mph if I lowered it could I hit 60mph and how much would I have to lower it? |
