Re: S10 Frame Swap w/ AD and LS motor

I ended up using the brass radiator I had from when my truck ran the original straight 6 (I had bought the radiator new at one point around 12 years ago). I had to remove and relocate the side mounts on the radiator so that I could push it up into the core support to clear on the bottom. That fan is from a Lincoln Mark 8. As I stated back in July, this truck drove through the California Central Valley in 104* weather up the Grapevine and did not overheat.

Great build!
I love that you drove up to the Bay Area with no problems! I think my next one will have an LS.

I'm curious to reweigh my truck. I weighed mine for registration without having all the pieces installed and was right at 2900 lbs.

Re: S10 Frame Swap w/ AD and LS motor

Great build, can you let me know what you did for the power steering feed line? Where you able to use a stock one or did you get one custom made?

Thanks,

I ended up having a line made. There is a company local here that sells hoses, and makes, brake, ac, power steering etc. lines.

Re: S10 Frame Swap w/ AD and LS motor

Not sure what setup you are using or asking about, but if you check out Greystone systems on amazon and ebay or their site, they offer a ton of PWR steering hoses, braided. I got one for my LS conversion to mustang rack for like 25 bucks I think. Ordered a conversion fitting from GETFAST1 or a slew of others online. Local places can make the hose, but sometimes they won't have AN fittings like I needed.
