If the truck has a 4.3 turbo... its similar to a SBC - 2 cylinders. Does that mean a turbo v8 swap would be just a 350 and a turbo manifold away?

yeah and its funny how the higher $ car is butt *** ugly.... i guess it costs to have no taste!!!
about the 4.3 to the 350 swap yeah compleetly possible but it would be a pain in the *** to keep it cool. friend of mine had to piggie back radiators to keep his s10 under 220 in traffic.

Funny how I just saw this today. I was behind one on my way to the gym yesterday. It was absolutely immaculate!! Ive never seen it around before, although it didnt look like something that saw daily driving duties. Flawless exterior, perfect brand new looking black paint. I would have loved to get him to stop and let me take a look, but he wouldnt even look at me. He may have thought that I thought I was in his league and wanted to race. He wasnt wasting his time on that one. Anyway it was a damn nice truck!!
