Guillermo,I've located some figures for your truck,but need to dig a little longer.I think I can pull them together by this coming Saturday.
*You might tell us about your driving conditions there in Lima.If you do a significant portion of steady high-speed highway driving the aero mods should really help you.
*Also,it would be good to know about the Blazers gearing,and the kind of engine RPMs she turns at highway speed.
*I presume you have a thermo-clutch on the engines cooling fan?
*Is the original fan shroud still in place?
*How often do you use the 4-wheel-drive?
*Could you do with narrower tires?
*Could you get by with less ground clearance?
