Getting started on swapping a 93 S10 and thought I would keep a running thread on the progress. Looking forward to using this thread to learn for myself and help others with their swaps. The truck I will be swapping is a really nice low mile truck that doesn't need any body or paint work so we'll just focus on the drivetrain side, hopefully one day we can revisit and powder coat the chassis. Here's a few pics of the truck.
Nice weekend here in Ky so a lot of work in on the S10. Oil pan, mounts installed. Went ahead and bolted the trans to the engine and installed in 1 piece, probably wouldn't do it that way again. I will list the parts I'm using below for anyone wanting to use them or questions.
Holley 302-1BK
Hooker Swap brackets 71221029HKR These swap brackets use a 4th Gen F-body style frame mount, available in rubber and poly from local parts store or Summit and Jegs
Using the Hooker Swap brackets there's no need to notch the frame.
I went ahead and purchased a new fuel tank and fuel pump hanger since they are so cheap.
The tank come in a raw finish so I sent it over to the local powder coater for some silver powdercoat.
Spectra GM16B3FA
using a Holley 12-914 the factor 93 hanger is plug-n-play
I found these Earl's adapter fittings that will make adapting the AN line to the hanger super easy AT9894DBHERL AT9894DBJERL
Complete ready to install, i did use crimp clamps over the screw clamps. I'm just not a fan of screw clamps. Earl's has packs of the clamps and can be crimped with side cutters if you don't have the correct tool. Earl's 750009ERL
Yes, thanks for posting the pictures, I would like to see how the Hydraulic System for
the Clutch is routed, all the way from Master to Slave, curious how it will get around exhaust.
You said you are using the fuel hanger from a 93, do you know if the fuel level Sending unit
will match the fuel Gauge of all 1st gens, I think they do but not 100%. Thanks
