Re: Current S10 build project 350 swap and 4" bodydrop

You do good work.
The S10 area doesn't see many visitors here on this board.
Keep at it!

Re: Current S10 build project 350 swap and 4" bodydrop






Actually worked on this thing a bit. Got all new brake and 3 fuel lines ran out back. Lucky my buddy owns the fancy expensive tool that makes all the crazy gm fuel line flares.




Got the firewall all welded up and started to smooth the welds.

Hooked up a rear brake line, it runs down the link bar for a clean look and cause of the needed travel range.

And laztly pics aird up and laid out.

Aird out.





Also the vette sitting in the back ground... I bought to strip down and use motor tranny and all front and rear suspension under the 1951 AD truck.

Re: Current S10 build project 350 swap and 4" bodydrop

I'm really shooting for this summer... i wanna drive this thing!!

I'm horrible at taking pictures while working but progress is being made.

Cabs back on along with front sheet metal
started working on a homemade sheetmetal intake to clear the hood
driveshaft installed (shortened, rebalanced, new u joints),
crazy 4" tall driveshaft tunnel bent up and welded in,
the notches in the back cab wall also bent up and welded in
rad support was cut out in the center and radiator flushed in
dual 12" electric fans bought , working on making a shroud for them
Exhaust started with a bunch of prebent mandrel sections (Xpipe under tranny tail shaft, flowmaster 40's then dumped out in front of the rear wheels.)
Picked up a set of camaro seats, cutting tracks to sit as low as possible

I think thats the mentionable stuff for now..

Re: Current S10 build project 350 swap and 4" bodydrop

Also been working with my buddy on his truck. Setup to lay on 22's, 3" body drop, fully built 6.0 lsx v8. Should be fun when its drivable. If ya look at the driverside front tire can see how close the tires sit to the outer skin... the real 22's will probably touch the skin due to camber and wider tires.
