1986 K5 Blazer.  Four-wheel drive with manual locking hubs.  3/4 ton running gear front and back with 16" wheels and tires. Rear and front hubs are from a 1988 3/4 ton Suburban. Added leafs to rear springs and also has new Firestone air-suspension. Also a trailer hitch.  Engine has a Banks turbo system- a lot boost setup that maxes around 7 PSI boost. Engine has recently rebuilt injection pump, new HD electric fuel pump, glow plugs, water-pump, and vacuum pump.  Brakes are near new.   Transmission is a 1990 from a diesel Suburban. Model 4L60.  Has 500 miles since a complete rebuilt and upgrade with HD clutches, band, custom made torque-converter, etc.  Exhaust has a stainless-steel muffler.  Quad shocks in front.  Blazer had some rust and a Western plow on it when I got it. I replaced some rusty sheet-metal in rockers, floors, and rear tailgate girder.  I cut part of the snow-plow frame off and used as a front tire mount.  Camper body on it now was made by Hallmark in Colorado.  Has a pop-up roof. Propane heat and a fold-out bed, along with a over-cab bed.  Also front seats fold down flat for a 3rd bed if wanted.   Front seat is split bench and there's a small 2nd seat in back that comes out. So can seat four but will be tight. Camper has its own twin deep-cycle batteries and DC to AC electric rated 2000 watts.  NOTE:   I also have an OEM tailgate and cap if someone wants to convert this back to a typical Blazer.  You can have your choice of a tailgate with electric window or crank.  Choice of fiberglass cap with sliding side windows or fixed. Also choice of OEM back seats and spare carriers. But -you must remove them from other vehicles I have here. I do not have time. I am getting ready to sell my place and move.  If bought  - I will only be at my place in New York until August 8.
I will not have time to help with anything.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Mon, 20 Jun 2011

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.

Callaway debuts its new C7 Stingray at National Corvette Museum

Fri, 02 May 2014

Callaway showed off its first tuned version of the 2014 Corvette Stingray at the National Corvette Museum last week, giving the rampant enthusiasts of America's sports car a look at the roughly 620-horsepower, supercharged rocket.
Unlike the Corvette SC610 we showed you back in January, this Stingray packs a fair bit more oomph. Horsepower is only up ten ponies, but torque has jumped from 556 pound-feet to "at least" 600 pound-feet. Neither horsepower nor torque is official quite yet, although Callaway is expecting to know just what its creation can do once testing and validation is completed later this month.
The 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 now boasts a new, three-element intercooler, which Callaway claims only allowed the inlet air temperature to increase by ten degrees Fahrenheit during dyno runs. Previous designs saw a 35-degree-Fahrenheit jump. The exhaust system has also been fettled with, and now is even less restrictive.

2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.
