Yeah, I like the LT platform. I like how the 4.3 puts out more torque than horsepower. Very good power for a 2 valve engine. In something with a small engine bay and lightweight would be very fun. I think direct and port injection would be cool, like Ford is doing with the 5L Coyote. No more carbon build up issues. Interested to see how boost is controlled on an 11 to 1 motor. I see it as a challenge with only 91 around here.

If you haven't seen PowerNation's 4.3L turbo build and dyno, I highly recommend it.

Bookface find.

Hubba hubba!

Bonus points if you put Blazer spindles in and retain the front sump mounted diff.

I THINK you could put 2wd blazer front spindles on and if you are OK gutting the frame between the UCA and LCA you could run a 4wd blazer wheel bearing and if you could make custom axles it looks like everything would sorta line up.

I saw that post, I never considered the level of genius that you propose.

I know a guy with a spare regal.


Cauterize.... This is up to you now.
