    BUILD THREAD “The Juggernaut”

    Great use of the boneyard.it used to be that if you wanted something you had to find it in a yard and modify it to fit your car that's when you knew that you were a gear head. I kinda miss that. You were always learning new skills and being inventive and creative.

    The Junkyard Interchange and Rarities Thread

    The 2wd blazer is a direct swap.I think there was a tech article on malibu racing.com about the electric fan swap. I think they were using the fans out of lincoln marks and Continentals.just about any dual fan set will work. Just measure your rad then find one that will work
