Our 95 S10 Blazer 4x4 flashes to 2800 rpms.

My Vette has a 2600 rpm stall, flashes to 2950, and it's far too low. If I had it to do again, I'd go at least 3200 rpm, probably 3400. :eek: With a...

Just a thought, but which tachometer is this 6,000 rpm at? Your stock guage might be lying to you, what's the laptop say?

Your spark plug gap is WAY too wide. I bet you're not even sparking half the time and it's going out the safety in the distributor.

Bump it down to 0.040 at the most and see what happens. :seeya
