Would it not have been best to buy a regular blazer and swap the ls1.

flim flam, i did not get your $ offer on PM, everything is for sale.

James.. It would cost me a lot more than 5k to put a nice lowered all wheel drive blazer w/ ground effects and a full leather interior around an ls1... and selling the power plant for 5 means i've got 5 in the chassis/body after spending 10 on the truck.
