Default My s10 LS swap is complete.

Busted *** to get me new daily driver finished for 2k14. Just got the exhaust on today and there is plenty of little things left, but it's running and driving.

2009 4.8 with a carb and edelbrock 2215 cam. T56 trams and explorer 8.8 rear with limited slip and 4.10s. It wheel hops so bad it isn't funny.

Damm I miss my little sonoma just watching that. Mine was a hella sleeper and the WTF look when I laid the smack on some very unsuspecting big mouths was priceless. Trying like heck to get my TA rebuild in my sig finished so I can get back to it again.

I'm sure, I'm going to keep this truck for a long time.

Here ya go fellas:





And here is the 312 HP run:


Very very pleased. Couldn't be happier with any of it. Now imagine if I went to the full length 1 3/4 headers with a x pipe, bigger cam, bigger carb and intake, I think it would jump to closer on the 380 area.

Drives great on the rain as well.

Think it is 31xx. Going to weigh it as soon as I get to the area where the scales are.

It is the same weight or a hair more than the 89 RS, and it had a 6.0 T56 combo, so don't have to imagine. Lol

The camaro was more aerodynamic so it would still not work as well in the s10.

But, alas, intent was not racing. Just a fun daily that packs a strong jab.
