What it hard to put the newer seats in? I really want to do this. They are the ones with the seatbelts biult into the seat, correct?

On a Blazer, pretty easy since it has a flat floor, on a pickup, lots of fab work since the floor is raised.

I have not ran a 1/4 before, but I have ran a 1/8 at Knoxville drag way. The best time coming out of the hole with out spining was 8.3 at 79 MPH. I will be going to Havac Show this year and they will be drag racing for money, I just took the motor out and put some updates in it. I am hoping mid 12's in a 1/4. Well see..

Thanks,
Trav

Man, that thing is MADE for a calendar! Beautiful ride. Reminds me of the first ride I ever had  :'(   Yours is much nicer though lol  Can you post some close-ups of that air cleaner setup? That's really slick.

If you did 8.3 in the 1/8, that should be right about 13.0 in the 1/4. And if you were spinning, 12's should be attainable! SICK!! What's the power feel like with a combo like that? Is it soft until say 3000 and then it rips your head off or is it strong all around?
