I would recommend going to www.syty.net.

I have a 1992 GMC Typhoon that is coming out of the shop in few days.

Good luck.

I wouldn't recommend them as far for reliability issue. If you are mechanically inclined and have time work on them in the weekends. Go for it. They just need lots of tender loving car.

However, I would advise against it since I saw your pic of the blazer and saw all the snow in the backgroud. I wouldn't drive them in snow, thats mean!

If you want more power. I doubt you want to turbo your blazer. Why not put something more reliable like 350 V8?

ive been playing with the v8 idea for a while but a recent happeining wiht a toyato sentra has bent my frame i thing so im looking to sell this one asap and get another balzer but i alwasy wished i ahd more power but i dont realy want a car but they seem a little to pricy for me right now

well, you gotta decide what you want to do with the car. If you wanted to do offroading. Don't get Typhoon or Syclone. If you wanted cheap reliable car. Don't get Typhoon or Syclone! Well, as for more power, there is always a price for it. Why not get a full size Chevy Blazer? Yeah, it will have lousy gas milage, but you get more power. Good Luck

and that will fit on my frame how?

I think the easiest thing would be to get a supercharger for the blazer you get. The next option would be a V8 swap, not as easy but doable.

well the sc is out the motor is high milage and i dont wana make it any worse than it is Id do a V8 if i could find a vette motor for a decent price

 

[Guest]

the v8 small block swap really isnt that hard to do
i just takes time. theres not alot of prep work to make it fit
there alot of companys out there that make products to make it easier and better

get the jtr book, it tells u everything

I've got a Ty. Like Boostn said, SyTy's are not the most reliable. But some are and some aren't. It all depends on how you drive and how you maintain it. Also, how the previous owner has driven it and maintained it. Mine is my daily driver, and I do regular oil changes (every 2K miles mobil 1 only) and all the other required maintence and i don't get any major problems.

Also if your looking into adding forced induction to your 4.3, check out www.tobefast.com . Jerry McCoy is working on a complete setup.
