ProCharger Supercharged 4.3L S10 Extreme

[ddb3333]

i hate to say it but that extreme is runnin a little slow. my 91 sonoma with a stock 4.3 got up to 107

[9DTS9]

i love my s10. that damn truck has saved my life and is tough as hell! my kids will be driving s10s!

[951prerunner]

i got the 4.3 in my 01 blazer,reliable and powerful motors if done correctly!

[JWLSSS]

Nice numbers, but way to much tire for that truck. Lose the tire size and gain a couple tenths.

[clavo420]

Wow you got smoked

[ilovegoatsecks]

i have an 02 sonoma with the 4.3 and i bought it in 2005 with 38k miles. as of 2011 it now has 76k miles and feels stronger than ever. regular 3k mile oil changes and this engine keeps on purring. firm believer on the 4.3. all i have is intake, exhaust, electric fan conversion, and 170 t-stat.

[SuperBrandango]

S10s are the best trucks ever made!!!!!!!!! I used to have a Extreme for like a week then we had to take it back cause the bank fucked up on the price so they tried to higher it, my dad said fuck that, i now have a 03 v6 :)

[codsac13]

I dont know why people cant just watch the damn video. if you dont like s-10' s then dont buy one. I myself have owned 12 of them and actually own one rite now cause there just a good inexpensive truck to play around with and fix up. Half the people that bitch about it are probly walking. But who really cares if u like it or not thats why you have the choice to hit watch video or dont.

[keith91z28]

@codsac13 Cant agree more, I love my s10 4x4. simple and fun to play with.

[kreigsmann]

wtf is a procharger?

[coalandnuclear]

@kreigsmann procharger is the brand of supercharger

[kreigsmann]

@coalandnuclear is it better than the wyjammer?

im comtemplating on witch one to get when i rebuild my 4.3 cpi

[coalandnuclear]

@kreigsmann i have no clue, procharger is more popular. i'm more of a turbo guy, its cheaper to build a turbo car than a supercharge car. espicially if its the roots type supercharger that you are going with.

[kreigsmann]

@coalandnuclear i like turbos too but only when the engine was built for it ..

and you have over 10k for it

turbos need timers intercoolers oil coolers BOVs and miles of piping

supercharger is plug and play.

but turbos can be SO much more powerful. a non leaking one that is.

i want to get mine boosted without blowing money i dont even have.

got any preferences on engine parts?

[coalandnuclear]

@kreigsmann 10k? i built a homemade turbo kit for a 97 single cam civic about 2 years ago, i think i only spent about 600 bucks. it still runs today. it made like 165 hp to the wheels, pretty good cause it started out at 93hp. you just have to be creative, and hell you can get a whole complete already made turbo kit for anywhere from 1500 to 5000. you can go cheap pretty easy, just get manaul boost controller, that will save you 500 for astart, a t3t4 will make plenty of boost for a s10

[kreigsmann]

@coalandnuclear i dont rig my cars up.

if im going to turbo something its going to have the best turbo made and all the fixins no matter the price.

i would turbo the 43 but ide have to put sooooo much money into it.

im just trying to find out the best guts for the 43 for boost prep

[coalandnuclear]

@kreigsmann the thing is there is no best turbo out there, only applications for the power you want, why spend 1500 on a turbo but not get power till 3200rpm, there are nice 3-400 turbos that spool real fast and make good power, plus the higher the power you have the faster its going to blow. i tend to build something and sell it then move to another project, im not into losing money. the build is where most of the fun lies for me. to me you'd be wasting more money the way you do it

[coalandnuclear]

@kreigsmann also if you dont have money to blow why would you go all out? that doesnt make alot of sense. if you do some research and build it and each part individually you will have done it right with good, reliable power, as long as your goals are not stupid,i.e 1000hp 4.3, you should be fine.even if you build the bottom end for a turbo you wont have but 2500 in it. by the way what do you have, i have a 96 extended cab zr2 and a 03 regular cab xtreme both with 4.3's

[kreigsmann]

@coalandnuclear i dont have a lot of money but then again i dont nigger rig my cars.

if something takes several thousands like the rebuilt trans im getting ill save up for it.

but the last thing im going to do is drive around in mexid out hodas with dollar store turbos that leak and cause tremendous wear on the engine.

ide rather walk.

im only wanting to get it supercharged so it can pull a trailer better so 50 extra horse when i need it is what im after. ive been in accidents because of speed.

[coalandnuclear]

@kreigsmann you'd be better off buying a fullsize truck than superchargeing a s10 for towing. the stock 4.3 will tow just fine, its the chassis and just the lack of weight that gets the s10. and also i dont nigger rig anything. like i said i made a turbo kit for a civic 2 years ago and a buddy bought it and is still driven today. you sound like an idiot if you think only buying the best makes it better. kinda like supercharging an s10 towing,

[kreigsmann]

@coalandnuclear a fullsize truck when gas is 340 a gallon?

now thats idiocy.

[coalandnuclear]

@kreigsmann you know chevy puts the 4.3 in full size trucks right? like i said the s10 isnt going to tow much no matter the engine power

[kreigsmann]

@coalandnuclear itll tow better with more engine power that much is known.

and yea they do put the 43 in short bed single cabs but whats the piont of getting a truck thats more tank like. than sticking with a small body that weighs less and thus more capable of anything that a big redneck truck

[oDTheTruth]

@kreigsmann Try something like 450 here in NYC.

[kreigsmann]

@oDTheTruth thats insane

its 385 right now in raleigh nc. and i stopped driving my car because of it.

[trkklr77]

oh look, it has a handle so when it shits that 7.5" diff out the cover you can push it off the track.

[81lego81]

Skittles is Right about the 4.3 V6. I still have my damn 1995 Chevy Blazer S-10 SUV and the damn thing is still running fuckin good. Its amazing how GM built those little engines. I dogged the shit out of that truck for the past 9 years and blew my 4L60E Tranny at 220,000 miles and i got it rebuilt and beefed up with Camaro SS Clutches. Now the blazer has 258,793 miles on it and still runs great :D

[wuta45]

I've beaten my 4.3 to hell and back with a supercharger on 7psi, then a verrrry lean 8-9 psi then 10psi the right way. I mean I have tore the fuck outa it for over 70,000 miles and thats just since I bought it, 5000rpm clutch dumps, running ridiculously lean for a few months to the point where I and other drivers could smell it, donuts and burnouts, driving on the beach in seawater, hitting way past redline many times at 5600rpms, not once have I ever had a knock or tick or whatever, 4.3 owns

[BANSHEE77777771]

and that was a procharged vortec??!!

F*CKIN SWEET!!

[chevellenut1968]

im working on an extreame that was not taken care of im trying to bring it back to life any good companys to look up and order parts from any help well be greatly apreciated

[dbd044]

were did u get your suppercharger

[313foxbody420]

that sucks dude, everyone was staring at the supra and expecting something special

[1slomr2]

@skittles743 drivetrain wise they are lasting vehicles but damn do they love to rust out with a quickness..

[RamRodRacer]

@1slomr2 omg i know in one winter my cab corners went from solid to 2 inch around rot holes

[krunklemonade]

what tires are those?

[SASYAMX]

That's it i have a 90 s10 with a 4.3 running 13.90 at 95 mph in the 1/4 on all motor

[DAGOLFER34]

Woooo 4.3 ! Haha great little motors best thing GM ever built the motor in mine has 330000 miles on it ! It's almost a 350 jus 2 less cylinders haha

[weewoodeal]

Have any of you heard of a procharger p1sc in a c1500 with a l35 v6 ? i see lot of ppl do it with s10 but no vids rly of c1500 .... going to put one in mine an run around 10-12 psi with blower cam an manul vavle body.... always nice to see other ppl's vids

[Ridinred02]

*Xtreme

[painhammer4560]

got its ass kicked buy a rice box

[Johnythemuse]

haha..my S10 is an 84. XD

[tmaxxmonster2]

4.3l are one hell of a motor. we have a 93 4.3 blazer as a field truck for our farm. and let me tell ya what. we beat the living hell out of that thing. it has 362xxx miles on it. an it still fires up and runs like a champ. we haul hay trailers loaded down to the local farmers market with the damn thing. it may not go to fast hauling, but it gets the job done.

floor pans are rusted out you feet hover over the transmission an your ass sits on a 5 gal bucket right next 2 the transfer case!

[cblt2007]

@tmaxxmonster2 gotta love them rednecks! lol awsome description of a badass truck...i had the 2.2Land that think had 200xxx miles on it and thing ran great till i blew a head gasket then rebuilt the motor so i could turbo it XD... and that thing could tow little trailers...i mean little trailers lol but its a 4 cylinder lol i loved that truck..

[cblt2007]

@tmaxxmonster2 (btw i mean no offense by the redneck comment as i am a redneck) chevy builds trucks like no other...i own the 5 cylinder colorado now.. and that things a beast.. walks my buddies f150 all the time.. and gets 14-17 mpg... its lifted n got tires n shit.. stock it gets like mid 20's... to his 8.. lol chevy for life!!

[skittles743]

fordmoparguy,my 1995 s10 has 309k miles and only thing thats been done other than plugs and wires is the alternator has been changed. still dont tick or tap and will still smoke the fuck outat some tires. its had the piss drove outta it. they are built to last. a 4.3 is a strong ass motor.

[underling17]

@skittles743 i grew up in a family of mechanics and 4 of my family members all have 4.3 s10s and they are fifty times better than my 88 bronco but mine will still beat theirs in the woods lmao

[SuperBrandango]

@skittles743 hell yea i live the 4.3 best motor ever

[1slomr2]

@skittles743 drivetrain wise they are lasting vehicles but damn do they love to rust out with a quickness..

[slayerfan101010]

@skittles743 dude i totaly agree with yopu i have a 1995 s10 with an 4.3 v6 vortec TBI with 401,000 Kms on it nothing done it except plugs disributar cap and rotor it runs like its fucking new mine will also burn the tire right off the rim LONG LIVE THE V6 VORTECS!!!!! p.s also ran it for 30 Kms with absolutly NO oil in it and it still lives to this day

[Gauthier808]

@skittles743 ya and my malibu have 135 000km and the 2 head have worp and its coast like 1500$ for shaving the head and all the work for reamove those 2 head CHEVY= FUCKING SCRAP i also have a 1988 mustang gt and no problem my friend have a 318 dodge in a old dakota no problem 289 ford and 318 dodge BEST engine ever dude

[dramsey1991]

every vehicle has some good things and problems man. I had a dodge 318 magnum truck that ran great. had a jeep with the 318 and that motor blew at 130k. I had a 4.3 blazer, motor blew, my grandpa has a 4.3 sonoma with almost 300k miles on it and runs like a champ. my step dads 3.0 taurus ran for over 250k miles but his dads 3.0 ranger was garbage. Its hard to call a huge company like these ones crap because all have achieved much. The chevy 350 goes alongside the dodge 318 as a great engine

[03LSDime]

@dramsey1991 yea just retarded ppl dont know how to change oil in their shit, most teenagers drive s10's and blazers so thats why some break cause they dont take care of them

[rl713]

Was the other car a Toyota Supra?

[74ChevyVegaMan]

I hope to build a turbo version of this motor for my 74 chevy vega! But awesome truck runs strong!

[BeboAltizer]

how much was that supercharger?

[rayo1387]

Where did you get your supercharged

[262Blazer]

where did you get your procharger?

[hectanooga]

Ditto on that.

[blueolds01]

what else is done? i can hear the cam, unless that was the supra. are you running like 10 pounds of boost?

[tackett12345]

shut up u ford faggot

love the truck man

im about to procharge my z28 and my 4.3 vortec s10

[ShinRay]

I second that motion. about him shutting up. Funny last I remember my modded Z28 lasted through more abuse than a couple of my buddies modded cobras did... As far as the 4.3 goes that motor is more resilient than my LT1 was...

[fordmoparguy]

that motors not going to last long

[loucks428]

you have the 4.3 confused with the 4.6 silly goose

[fordmoparguy]

yea ok- thats why my dads 4.6 has 268000 miles on it and we only changed the alternator-i still love 4.3s but gms midsize trucks werent built to last very long-neither were rangers but i own a 3.0 ranger i like them better

[ms1914]

ha thats way too funny...i see more s-10s on the road than any other mid sized truck...werent meant to last?? I think not. Sorry its just facts...

[GarretSpool69]

my 01 blazer has 350,000 miles and is still goin strong, minus the occasional drivers side motor mount needing a changing 0:) lol

[RangeOrMellee]

@ms1914 atleast it last longer then ford's and crappy dodge's .

[03LSDime]

@ms1914 lmao i was driving home from work today, there was another white s10 and a white gen 2 blazer in front of me we were the only ppl on the street, looked like a fucking convoy lmao
