Ok here we go. I'm on a fixed income and I'm in need of a motor here soon. I could just spend the money to fix the one I have but I don't think it would be worth it. I have a 1988 s10 blazer with a gm good wrench 2.8 with tbi. They say I need new bearings in it. I was wandering if some one had a blazer or s10 for sale that I could get on payments or maybe a motor. I live in alabama and don't mind going to ga for it. I really want to keep my ride going so any help would be appreciated. I'm up for doing a v8 conversion if need be but I do have a '85 305 motor already torn down but I don't have a way to rebuild it. I can also do some work on pcs if anyone can help me. Well let me know if you have something. Thanks in advance. You can reach me at layitlo@centurytel.net or my pager at 770-782-9449.

Hey that's great. I know where there is a blazer for sale but the body is crap and they want 1000 for it. It's been dropped and had other things done but it's not worth that much. It's a black one over at martins recycling in villa rica on hwy 78. I'm out there all the time. Maybe sometime we can meet. I used to know alot of people out there. Lived there since I was 13. If ya fine something let me know. Here's my home number too if needed 256-253-2268. Call me when ever. I'm Ted by the way.

Ok guys, I gotta bring this back to life. I'm needing help really bad. I've got the swap done and I've got a 4.3 motor and trans now from a 89 s10 pickup. I had to change all the wireing over from the donor. so I had to change the dash and the fuse block in order to get it running. I have power to my fuel pump now but I can't get my injection working. I've still got to finish putting it back together so I'm hoping it will start then. But if it won't I have two choices left. The first one is to take it to a shop and let them get the tbi running. Or I can get a carb setup and go all carbed. But I'd like to save money and get the tbi running. Is there anyone that can come and give me a hand with getting it running. I can't offer anything in return unless someone needs some pc work done. So if someone doesn't mind helping me out thne let me know please. Maybe in return I can help ya with something on your's. You can reach me at 256-253-2268 or on my aim at layitlo88. Thanks in advance. I can use a carb setup if anyone can point me to one.

Well thanks for the offer but I'm not looking to buy one. I'm looking to getting mine running. Either using the tbi or going to a carb setup. I don't have the money to buy one and fix the one I have. I really want to finish mine. i've put alot into my truck and really need to finish it.

Sorry man. If you were in bama I could find you on 4.3 carbed out of a boat for 600 for the whole boat. But I'm guessing your not here. But thanks for the offer.
