Well.... Thank You. I really try hard to keep things as realistic as possible. and spread my know-how to others. I know where the flaws are in and on my Blazer. I'm just a hard working honest guy. In the end, you really just have to please yourself.
@Patrick dubuc I was going to replace the old spindles with 2" lowered ones. I found out on RUclips that the 2001 Blazer ones have better built in bearings in them and I get dual piston calipers to boot ( the old ones were single piston) best of all they bolt on with no mods needed.
@@damnitdang yes, the spindle ,caliper and rear diff is bolt-in from 01 Blazer. The brake booster and master is from the 2011 Camaro that I got the engine and trans from.
@@damnitdang Axle width is the same. 89 Blazer ebrake cable will not work with '01 disc brake, cause old ones were drum brakes. I do not run a parking brake on mine. Auto trans does the parking duties.
Nice blazing blazer. Went to the turkey run in Daytona, Fl with Tommy very nice sound and ride.
Thanks Joe😊
That is absolutely beautiful!
@Dustin guy Thanks. I really appreciate it.

It’s nice to,see some people,still like these things!
That's awesome man!!! Good looking blazer!!!
Very nice I really like it I was a bit disappointed when you said it wasn't a real 396. That would have been cool
@Gary Fraser I'm glad you like it. I get what your saying about a real 396, but too heavy with less horsepower and lower MPG with a carb.
Beautiful Tommy. Your work is amazing.
Thank you so much 😀
Vary nice build loving every part of it man amazing
Thanks and glad you liked it.
Looks awesome, love the engine bay... Im doing a LS3 carb like look for my 72 Chevelle. I prefer the old school look too.
Sweet
Great job on the blazer love it
@Randy Helzer Thank You. I really appreciate it.
Man it's clean I have a 4 door I want to put a 6.0 in it..
@ Adrian Mata Thanks. It's been a labor of love. All about the details and the best planning I can give it.
Hey i forgot to ask... did you delete DoD on your LS3 by using the DoD delete plugs and reusing the oem "maze" style valley plate?
@awtc72 I only deleted DoD in the tune. The mechanical part of the delete will come out when I do the cam next summer.
@@tommywestway ohhh ok… thank you. I plan on plugging mine with the cam swap. And keep the valley plate
Why the 2001 blazer front spindles?also we're those spindles a direct bolt on or did u have to modify them to work?
@Patrick dubuc I was going to replace the old spindles with 2" lowered ones. I found out on RUclips that the 2001 Blazer ones have better built in bearings in them and I get dual piston calipers to boot ( the old ones were single piston) best of all they bolt on with no mods needed.
@@tommywestway so everything on a 01 blazer spindle, caliper fits? Same with booster and master and rear end axle?
@@damnitdang yes, the spindle ,caliper and rear diff is bolt-in from 01 Blazer. The brake booster and master is from the 2011 Camaro that I got the engine and trans from.
@@tommywestway is the rear diff axle same width? 89 blazer ebrake cable connects to 2001 disc location?
@@damnitdang Axle width is the same. 89 Blazer ebrake cable will not work with '01 disc brake, cause old ones were drum brakes. I do not run a parking brake on mine. Auto trans does the parking duties.

Rear tires are 245/50/17 The fronts are 215/50/17
