New guy from Charleston sc area

My name is Hal. 28 years old. Married with a 5 year old child

I daily drive a 2000 RCSB 5.3 silverado. Only mods are semi cai, magnaflow magnapacks , 20's and stereo.

Toy truck is mine and my dad's 2001 s-10 blazer xtreme. We are undergoing a 6.0 swap in it from the lt1 that we did put in there 2 years ago. Its mods are as follows
227/227 .614 115lsa lsl cam
CAI
Full exhaust
BUILT 4l60e (has adapter to run behind lsx)
3200 Mulitdisc Vigilante stall
8.8 rear with 4.10 gears and 31 spline axles
275/50/15 MT drag radials
Nitrous outlet 2 stage plate
FJO progressive controller
Electric fans
Transmission cooler with electric fan
Hydroboost setup

Hoping to go some 6.90's 1/8th or better in 2 weeks at the s-10 supernationals with 200 shot of nitrous. Last year blazer weight 4200 lbs and should weight around 4k or slightly less this go round. Removed some things here and there :)

LT1 put down 340/380 tq (I believe, have to check sheets) and went 7.5's on motor constantly .

Anyway, glad I found this place. Came over from PFtrucks and realized more people race here than over there.

Welcome to the board.

welcome to the site!

Yeah less show more go on here. These boys know how to look good............ and some times not so good....... and still go really fast.
WELCOME!

Sounds like a nice toy. Now put up some pics and keep us updated on the swap. Shouldn't have a problem getting down into the high 6's, especially with the 200 shot.

I will try to keep you updated. But right now we are at a stand still waiting for the hughes adapter for the lt1 transmission to the ls motor and the Swap headers.

I will get pics up later. Right now I can not access my photobucket or facebook.

This is the tow pig when we took it to the exhaust shop last time.

Blazer has true stock suspension. No traction bars, no anti roll bar nothing. Only suspension mods it has is dropped spindles up front and 2" blocks in rear with the stock zq8 suspension. I did finally add Rancho 9000's to it for adjust ability in the rear. I need to find some traction bars though. It has cut several 1.53 60ft times. But usually averages 1.60-1.70 60 ft as it sits on motor. Hope the 6.0 with cam and full exhaust and tune can do the same thing at least

Welcome from MD... Looks like a nice lil ride...

welcome to the site

nice setup, don't worry there are a lot of picture whores on here

Those fans look like they're made to push air not pull it...

Correct. They are going to be used at pusher fans. And they push a TON of air. Have to use hood pins on the hood as we had to remove the stock latch out of there.

Interesting concept. Let us know how that turns out.

Not to sound rude. But I have used electric fans as pushers before. I have NO ROOM for them to be used as "pullers" as the motor is in the way. It will keep it cool with no problem. I had a 92 ranger with a 302 based motor and had one clutch fan and a pusher. My 89 s15 with 357ci had a single puller motor mounted same way.
