1991 Chevrolet Blazer Silverado Sport Utility 2-door 5.7l on 2040-cars
Stanley, New York, United States

I am selling my 1991 K5 Blazer. I built this with the intention of keeping it but a mean wife forces the sale. No expense was spared during this build. It has just been sitting around for a year or so. I bet I don't have 1K on it since I finished it last spring. It is the original color. The owners manual shows a dealership in Texas. All the sheet metal is original with the exception of the floor pans and rockers. I had a body shop do this work for me. It was painted from the body line down on the front fenders and doors. The hood, roof and tailgate were not painted. There was no rust in the tub. I stripped it down to bare metal, primed it and coated it with Rock It liner. It looks very good. I also used a generic dyna mat on the floors. The carpet is new front to back. The seats are from a 2006 Silverado 2500. The drivers seat has a cigarette burn on the bottom. All the weather seals are new. The drivers side window works great but the wing makes wind noise. The passenger side works slow. I don't know why, I replaced both window motors and regulators. Every interior part was removed cleaned and painted with LMC's interior dye and clear coated. The dash pad is new from Summit Racing. It fits poorly but its not cracked. I called Summit about it being a POS and they said that they no longer carry that line and refunded my money. Thanks Summit! I had a dip switch installed in the DRAC so that I could program the speedometer. Its correct. The odometer has not worked since I have owned it. It has a flip out touch screen radio and junk speakers in the dash. The interior is very nice but needs the rear side panels. The rear window was working but now it's not. I hear the motor trying to work so I suspect the regulator is rusty. They axles are 4:10 ratio out of an 86 3/4 ton. The truck has an all spring 2-1/5" lift. I also corrected the steering arm. It drives great. The rear axle has a gov-loc differential and all new bearings. I kept the 3/4 ton brakes, which are all new and make this truck stop like its angry. Both drive shafts are custom made by Denny's Driveshafts. The transfer case is original but rebuilt. The transmission is a Monster 700R4 It was there most expensive one I forget what they call it. Here is the fun part!!! The engine is a .030 over 4 bolt 454. It is 9.6 to 1. Zero deck. The crank and rods are stock. The pistons are J&E flat tops. The bearings are Clevite's hardened race set. Total seal rings. The rotating assembly was balanced. The heads are oval port with new SS valves. Full aluminum roller rockers and a Comp Cams roller cam. It has an aluminium dual plane intake. It has Holley's EFI system that also controls timing. All new MSD external coil distributor, box and coil. It has an upgraded fuel pump in the tank Wabro? maybe? Coated Hooker headers with cats and flowmasters (sounds awesome). I have installed a knoc sensor but I never tried to program the computer to work with it. I think I have it set too sensitive and it immediately takes 3 degrees out of it. It starts and idles great hot or cold. On a very cold day its best to let it idle for a few before touching the gas pedal. Again I could have probably tuned the cold idle better but I didn't spend the time on it. In the interior photos you can see the USB cable. Just plug it into your laptop and tune. It was really user friendly. I added an aluminium radiator. It has an electric fan out of a Crown Vic Police Interceptor and is computer controlled. The A/C needs to be charged. The compressor and lines are new. I may have replaced the evaporator but I don't remember. The rims are cheap 16" with Goodyear Dura Tracks. I tried to spray clear coat on the rims because they shipped bare. I don't know how to paint so some of it flaked off. The tires are like new with no wear or dryrot. They ride real nice and quiet. I put a new heater core in it and disassembled and cleaned the heater box. All flexible brake hoses were replaced with braided stainless. This is a real nice truck! I think I could get it to wheelie if I really tried!!!
The areas that I would address are: Rear window regulator A/C charge Slow passenger window a small rust spot on the bottom of the passenger door Spend some time with the engine computer to dial in knock sensors and cold idle. Rear interior panels Wind noise from drivers wing window I have tried to describe this as accurately as possible. I have replaced almost every part on this truck. I have most of the receipts. This truck also has no battery draws and started right up EVERY TIME this winter even when it was near 0. The rear bumper is new from Goodmark. The front is a nice used one. The previous owner painted the old ones grey. Look over the pictures and ask questions. I would like to get her sold but I will not give it away. MILEAGE IS WRONG THIS IS A BIG BLOCK NOT A 5.7 |

Tarantino's stolen Chevy Malibu from Pulp Fiction recovered after 19 years [w/video]
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Quentin Tarantino fans will likely remember Vincent Vega's cherry 1964 Chevrolet Malibu Convertible in Pulp Fiction. In a movie drenched in automotive references, the Malibu is very nearly a character in and of itself, and it serves as the subject of Vega's soliloquy about the kind of man who vandalizes another's automobile. It also happened to be Tarantino's personal car when the film was shot, and was apparently stolen shortly after production wrapped. Now police have located the car some 19 years later.
As it turns out, the thieves cloned the vehicle identification number from another '64 Malibu and had the car registered under the new digits. It was then sold to an unsuspecting buyer. Police happened upon the duplicate VINs while investigating another potential theft. Right now, it's unclear whether Tarantino has taken possession of the Chevrolet, if it has remained in the possession of the fraud victim, or whether it's caught somewhere in the gears of justice. Either way, you can catch Vega's memorable thoughts on the car keying in the Pulp Fiction clip below. But consider yourself warned: the video contains explicit language as Not Safe For Work as it comes.
Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4
Wed, 29 May 2013Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!
Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.
