Anthony's Real 10
History
My summer of '99 project. Started out a 1985 Chevrolet S-10 Blazer, with a bone
stock 2.8L V-6 and a 700R4
overdrive transmission. At the end of one week, it came out with a slightly
modified Chevrolet 327 V-8 and a turbo 350 transmission. Modification to the
frame was minimal, the only real problems with this transplant was rerouting
the exhaust system with custom built headers to fit this application,
custom motor mounts, and lengthen the drive shaft.
