Hey has any body seen that the two new guys from Trucks on Spike TV are putting a V8 in a S-10? I'm not sure what they are using yet though all they said was crate engine.

i'm pretty sure its going to be just a standard 350 crate. they're putting a 700r4 behind it, so i'm pretty sure its not going to be anything fancy.

This isnt the first time its been done on Trucks...Stacey did it in an S10 Xtreme except on that they used the LS1. It was a quite a few years ago...and they called it the REAL Xtreme S10. I think if you look in the Trucks archives you could find something about it.

Actually, it was an LT1 they put in.
Strpped all the fractory ABS and gauges, then used a bunch of atermarket stuff to make it run.

Guys, I am actively looking for an engine/tranny and am leaning towards a t56. Will the t56 fit alright in the tranny tunnel?(not sure how much bigger than a 4l60e) I realize it will be more work to install ( considering I already have a 4l60e)
Any opinions?

I believe there are no probs as far as size and I am looking to do the same. I have a 4L60e also that should become a T56.

that stuff holds up good for about 5k miles, then it starts flaking off and burning off.......its not worth the effort.

I got my headers and here are some pics
the passenger side fits without to much trouble but it looks like it is a little bit close to the firewall the driver side looks like it is going to interfere with the steering shaft as you can see in the pic.
