Anyway, K&N filters are foam as opposed to OE paper ones. they flow better, and if oiled properly, will catch finer particles of debris.
good filters, and they will improve overall engine efficiency etc but don't expect there to be any real noticeable difference.
Yeah, no real noticable difference in power. I hoping for a slight increase in mpg, I guess we'll see...

When I made this post I was sooo tired I was literly falling asleep... Since then I've gotten about 3 hours of sleep... I'm about to kill over...

I've loved the 1st gen blazers ever since I was a wittle bitty boi...

It has taken me FORVER to find a blazer meeting the exact specs that I wanted.
It had to be a first gen that was in really good shape (no rust and a straight body). It had to be a 2 door and a 2wd... And it had to be a 4.3 with a 5 speed...

When I first found it I got a.... Well lets just say i was excited. :happy055:

I already have major plans for this one, I might pick up another 1st gen to use as a daily, if I do that I'll probably get a 4x4....

Hmm, but who?

The truck is a 2wd, I was just bored and decided to see what would happen if I tried to go through it. I've got video's of my cousin 4x4 jimmy stuck in it, but I guess it all has to do with the driver because I could stop in it and make it out after a little rockin...

It's going to get bigger rims (16" or 17"), but with lower profile tires and a 2/3 drop... Going with for a street truck type of look influenced heavily but the gmc typhoon... It'll probably have a 355 or or a 383 tbi v8 before next summer...

My gas mileage improved by about 15-20 miles per tank, the car had better acceleration (slightly noticeable) and I liked the fact this was the last air filter I had to buy!
SO ya it cost me $450 with the cleaning kit, but hey every 6 months I cleaned it and it was like new :D
Did you add the SO??? to the thread title? :surprised :angry15:

Or maybe I was just that tired when I posted this... am I going crazy?
