i have a 97 s10 with about $15000 in it and its still got the stock 2.2L engine but not for long im building a small block chevy 350 for it and im stroking it out to a 383 making around 400hp and im almost done
nice truck dude that sucks you had to get rid of it. are you thinking about building another one? im building a 03 ext cab right now i got ahold of a 5.7 vortec out of a 99 silverado and it will work nicely. did you do any work to the frame like boxing it in so the frame doesnt sway. me and a friend built a 93 with a 355 and we have bad frame wist
sick ass s10 man!!!! i have a 94 s10 my self with the 5 speed 4 cyl. right now lol, tops at 75! :p it a project but its hard with limit time and being dead broke at 17
OMG What a beautiful truck! amazing!!! What size wheels where you running and how many est. HP do you think it had? like I said- what an amazing truck dude! wow!
dude, i have a watched alot of videos on s10s,, i have a 94 all done up , and i want to say nice video making it came out good, also i like the interior .. good job well done..
this is seriously by far the best s10 I have EVER seen! I know you sold it but could you message me some kind of contact details to the person you sold it to?? I want to track this beast down and buy it! It will be on a TLC special I am helping out with.
i have a 98 ext cab with a 355 small block if u have any advise on how to make some power you should definatly let me know right now im tryin to make at least 400hp out of it
Love this truck, i have a 96 s10 2.2 manual reg cab with 228000 miles give or take and it runs like a champ. Thinking about putting a blown v8 in it one of these days.
i have a 95 s10 with a 4.3 vortec in it but i thought about putting a bigger motor in it i was wondering did you have an issue with the steering column clearance under the hood.
the chevy 305 or 350 V8 will slide right in with no problems clearing the steering colum (done them before), different story if your gonna wedge a big block in it, clearance might be a issue with headers then
@ctchmy5point0 I disagree. The music in this video is PERFECT. Perfect music, perfect placement, perfect timing. There are parts where you can here that big bad 400 small block.
It was a corvette spec rad, just a lot larger than the stock S10 one. I had to cut out some of the front shroud to make it fit but there were no big issues other than making a bit more space for it.
no, that increases horsepower by 5 and increases aerodynamic drag by 30%. You need to put 2 7 inch diameter exhuast tips out the sides underneath the doors (not connected to actual exhaust pipes) and put a type S sticker on the tailgate. Together, an estimated increase of 700 horsepower is expected.
Also, a NOS bottle (the energy drink, not nitrous) taped to the bed will further increase horsepower by 1200 when the horn is pressed.
I have a truck myself... not as badass.... but i couldnt imagine driving that thing in icy or rainy weather. if u were to put ANY weight on that gas pedal with that 406, your goin side ways.
I like that last scene. I hear that V-8 rumble coming and think Corvette, Camaro, or GT and then I see....... a S-10!!
man that things a beast and you really showed her o...f...f...(slowmo :)with all the highspeeds, engine revs, burnouts, donuts, drifts, and clutch dumps...you can really drive..........Shit I wouldn't let you drive my tummy stix
nice ride. i got a 97 long bed extended cab blacked out. i was thinking about doing a twin turbo small block Pro Stockish truck. you'll wish you didn't sale it... we all did.
I lived and owned the truck when I lived in PEI, eastern PEI. It would have cost me 6 million bucks to drive it up to Toronto, then insurance is twice as high, pay to store/park the thing, other dumb expenses. It was wiser for me to sell it, as sad as it was.
It's still a small block. Same basic block as a 350, except the 400 has siamese cylinders, and a larger crank journal size, as well as cylinder size. Stock is 4.125" bore with a 3.750" stroke. Bore the cylinders .030 over to 4.155" with a STD crank = 406cu.
My question is: Do I spy a set of double hump heads?
hey man nice truck...i got an 02 standard cab stepside and i'm wantin to drop an 8 in it to but i was wandering how much work it was for the 406 and where did u get those seats?
You can do the swap pretty easy if you've got some guys who know the big stuff like wiring and getting everything fine tuned. I got the seats just at a local parts supplier. You can get them all over the place and online too.
Not sure what the Vortec would cost. Depends on what you do to the motor. Mine was pricey because I did a lot of aftermarket parts. Not too sure about the emissions thing either, where I used to live it didn't seem to matter. I always knew the mechanic doing the inspection anyway.
how much work was done 2 the tranny to hold that much hp? I have a 412 sbc and a th 350 that i would like 2 put in my s10 but im almost scared to use that tranny but i would hate to spend money on another one... i would just like 2 know what i would have 2 do 2 make that tranny hold up to around 450 hp
I have one sittin in a '54 Ford F100. '72 block, forged flat tops, balanced, 4 bolt mains, port matched heads, rollers, Wiend singleplane, Holley 750, Comp Cams 280. Loose converter, 390:1 limited slip.
what kinda mods did u have to do to make that huge 406 fit in that small truck.cuz i wanna put a 383 stroker in my 98 sonoma and lower it but what kinda mods am i lookin at got the 2.2 4 cylinder in it right now.
Gut the engine bay of course. My truck had custom mounts made for the engine, a bit of cutting in the front of the engine bay for the larger rad, a couple of cuts in the lower firewall for the aftermarket headers. Its kind of a trial and error thing when fitting it in, but its not as difficult as one would think.
My truck wasn't posi which sucked a lot, but it would go posi if you spun the tires for a couple seconds. I just put the rear end out of an S10 Xtreme in mine with 4.10 gears at first, which had a top speed of like...160 but it got there damn fast. It was too much though to drive it on the highway so I put 3.73 gears in it. Worked well. I had the 3 speed and doing 100kph it was around 1900 or 2000 rpm. I could have used a 4 speed but whatever, to each his own I guess. I liked the 3.
i have a 97 s10 with about $15000 in it and its still got the stock 2.2L engine but not for long im building a small block chevy 350 for it and im stroking it out to a 383 making around 400hp and im almost done

Gut the engine bay of course. My truck had custom mounts made for the engine, a bit of cutting in the front of the engine bay for the larger rad, a couple of cuts in the lower firewall for the aftermarket headers. Its kind of a trial and error thing when fitting it in, but its not as difficult as one would think.

ok now that i know that what kinda rear end and gears u put in it to support the engine

My truck wasn't posi which sucked a lot, but it would go posi if you spun the tires for a couple seconds. I just put the rear end out of an S10 Xtreme in mine with 4.10 gears at first, which had a top speed of like...160 but it got there damn fast. It was too much though to drive it on the highway so I put 3.73 gears in it. Worked well. I had the 3 speed and doing 100kph it was around 1900 or 2000 rpm. I could have used a 4 speed but whatever, to each his own I guess. I liked the 3.

I'd have to buy the truck back, then get the 4 speed. The little 3 speed in her did a good job.
