Yes, great info!! Thanks!!
I am using a '96 4.3 vortec with a 2001 '411 pcm and I am running a Procharger centrifugal supercharger and that is the reason for the intercooloer. I use EFILive for tuning and have a lot of work to do in that department.
Also converted to all 2000 s10 Blazer brakes and suspension, disc brakes ft and rear and sway bars ft and rear, big upgrade from the original '91 stuff. Also replace the torsion bar front suspension with coil overs that works really well so far!
The boat-tail trailer idea is one I really like, as I am a camper and like to take extras along with me. I'll have to look into that more carefully.
No fuel logs posted, I have best mileage of 24.1mpg with current running 21-22mpg but I have a lot of room in the tuning that I haven't tapped into yet. Later on in 2013. This is my stateside vehicle that I have owned since 1999 and logged 125k miles on the Blazer but I live in Costa Rica...here I have a 1988 Jeep Cherokee with a 2.5 Hyundai turbo diesel, and a 1986 Toyota Tercel stationwagon...just got a new record of 33.5mpg this last tank, fuel logs since new with every fill up at the same pump in the same station to the same just barely overflowing point of the gas filler neck.
I drive the Blazer when I'm in the states.
Thanks for your info! Not anything new for me but worth pointing out!
Good times!
Bruce
