Default Future build for the new guy

Hey everyone! Figured I would introduce my future build for my first post. Once I graduate from college (hopefully just one year left), I plan to buy a chevy blazer (1998-2000's) and swap in a 6.0L, with new cam, heads, headers, intake, as well as a turbo with a quick spool valve, 3200 triple disk Circle D, a built 4L80 with the biggest diff I can get, a transfer case from a 2500 or 3500 (could be a fitment problem with an 80 but going to try), and a new set of tires to hold the 750 rwhp goal. I am hoping to be able to find a transfer case that will work for my setup and hold the power for 4x4 launches. Looking for some extreme 60 foot times

If you guys have any pointers or suggestions, throw them my way! I am all ears and can't wait to get this thing built and tuned to be an awesome sleeper, as well as my DD

Not sure if it would fit, and just an out there idea, but why not a beefed up Silverado SS AWD drivetrain? Also, welcome from Kansas!

Just now saw your post. Apparently I don't have my email settings right just yet...

Hadn't thought of that. A buddy of mine had suggested to me to go all out and buy a blazer (or s10) and build from scratch. Get a good grasp on tuning as well as building engines and trannies. Plus, a used blazer with 100k is relatively cheap. Many ways to skin a cat, and if I had a SS around for a low price, I would jump on that as well!
Glad to hear from Kansas, Ohio welcomes the comments anytime!
