I built a 1988 S-10 extended cab show truck back in the early 90s that had a 2.8 in it. That thing was a SLUG. My wife used to call it the "No pick-up pickup". It was going to get a TPI motor, but I sold it and it went to Japan.

Right before I sold it, I drag raced a buddy of mine in his Ford Festiva and he beat me by 3 car lengths
