No announcement yet.

At some point in my life, I'm going to regret making a build thread for this thing.

                  K, so. 5.7L enough for you guys? As far as the swap goes, it is literally a bolt-in, plug and play deal save for the headers and mounts. Same clutch/flywheel/transmission, same wiring, same rad, all that shit. SAME. GOOD, THANK FUCK 'CAUSE I'M BROKE. I have to run two wires and it will run on all eight.

                  Motor is out of a '98 Chev 1/2 tonne, 40xxx KM on it. Picking it up Monday or Tuesday.

                  This will be my third S10 with a small-block, only second generation one, though.

                  Have these poly mounts on order. (They finally make a decent mount for this swap)



                  That will be the only thing holding me back from having this swap done as fast as I can work. Waiting for those. SIGH.

                  Wasted no time yesterday and yanked the motor out. I've never pulled a motor out of one of these trucks with as much of the truck still assembled as physically possible. It made for an awful day. You can tell by the mess in the shop that I genuinely stopped giving a fuck mid-way through. I just want this done.

                  I made you guys a video:



                  And here's this junk.





                  Garbage!



                  Not garbage:



                  One of my factory motor mounts was split clean in half when I pulled the engine out, so it was only held in place with one mount and the trans mount. That's kinda scary.

                  I'm going to spend some time cleaning up under the hood and maybe rocker guard the frame rails and shit. Nothing crazy.

                  Oh, here's the aftermath of Friday.

                      Damn, sucks you spun a rod but it sounds like it's working out for the better. lol

                      Nice 11's by the way. In for more v8 11's, but with video.




                      The Kia has been parted.

                          I'm making it sound easier than it is, but not by much.

                          Picking up the new motor in about an hour.

                                small block s10s for days. I would have loved to see ls1 but totally understandable about the 5.7.

                                probably get the same fuel economy out it too lol
