Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.

Layedout,

Truck looks awesome. Nice score on the LS too. I have a few questions if you dont mind... quite a few actually, I'll number them!

1. Did you modify the cab mounts to get your cab to sit 6.5" off the frame? Did you mount the support brackets on the mounts in the same place Jeff suggested at 3.5 and 3.75"? I'm hoping to mount the cab as you did and still lay frame... I want to avoid making a drive shaft cut out.

2. Did the S10 headers interfere with the stearing linkage at all? I'm unsure of which type to get.

3. What gas tank did you use? I was hoping I could use the original s10 gas tank since the LRD 6 (bought the kit) link came with the raised tank cross member... wondering if the cab gets in the way.

4. What size and type bags did you use in the rear? I have RE8's but was told they might be too large for this kit... not sure if the size issue was meant if installed in an S10.

5. What size white walls are you running?

6. What motor mounts did you go with when mounting the 350?

I have more questions but don't want to wear out my welcome! Thanks for the updates btw, keep em coming!

Eric
