We're tearing apart one of our favorite projects as Project S-10K, our budget muscle truck, gets chopped up so we can start transforming it into a full on, four-linked, supercharged, 600 plus horsepower Pro Street truck with a brand new name, Haulin' S-10!

All good except that drop spindles are a BIG no-no considering you’re losing 2” of much needed down travel for drag and/or street racing! The goal is having the front tires ON the ground for as long as possible while the front lifts for weight transfer👌🏼

@heshtesh Жыл бұрын

Exactly why I skipped the drop spindles on my Sonoma. Also figured they wouldn't be a good match for my fenderwell headers.

Then those s10's and sonoma's are already as light as a Foxbody mustang putting in a big block your trying too go too the moon

@KevinDeen-cx2ss 8 ай бұрын

Drop spindles only relocate the wheel center to the chassis. Does nothing to the suspension travel unless the spring height is shortened.

You could probably buy an old S10 for the cost of that rear end. LoL 😏

@yourpcmd 9 күн бұрын

Yup, I bought 2. An 86 SB S10 for $1300 and a 91 SB S10 for $1200. Both rust-free and straight as an arrow.

Never messed with the DOT street slicks until here recently. I purchased a really nasty S10 with an LS6 (had one of those cams that made people lock their doors at the red light lol) T56 Magnum 6 sp dual disc clutch, 8.8" Ford Moser axles, 4.88:1 & the DOT street slicks & penny's up front. I had noticed that the windshield wiper blades were in horrible shape & needed replaced which I mentioned to the guy..... Now I do remember his response clear as day which was "Oh I wouldn't worry about those too much" but in one ear & out the other..... So I'm rolling down the hwy about 75mph & hit this huge freak rain storm which was when the guys response about not worrying about the wiper blades truly had meaning. They don't play any role in functionality when you're using the passenger door window as the windshield lol

If you have a spool in the rear end it would be a good reason you might have gone sideways.

Why would you cut out the old frame rails though I understand it would add weight but it would most certainly add rigidity

@thewrightsstuffall-out.8012 Жыл бұрын

So they can fit bigger tires in the rear. That's the whole point of the narrower rear end and backhalfed.

Low 7s in the 1/8th? I was running mid 7s in the 1/8th with a 1978 Trams Am and bone stock 400. All I did was slicks and 200 shot nitrous.

Being that 9inch are getting really hard to find, why not a 8.8??? It's lighter, takes less power to turn, & is just as capable.

Brand new 9" from Quick Perfromance are very reasonably priced.

8.8s are getting rare now also. Especially if you want a disc brake no rust version.

V8 transplant into S/T trucks are played out. Be nice to see a L3B 2.7 turbo transplant hooked to a 4L60E or a 4L80E project. GM performance peeps, you reading this. When will you have a crate option of the L3B for the market?

just curious what painless wiring harness you used because the ass hats at painless were no help to me. Those douche bags acted like they didn't even want to sell me a harness,

@danielclark5170 Жыл бұрын

I would've put twin turbos on the 4.3 v6 or would've put a built Honda K24 with a turbo and mods to turn over 1000 horsepower.

It's a shame you guys tore apart a nice little street truck. I would have bought a project truck out of a junkyard or online to do this build

This truck is perfect for this. They can focus on the drivetrain without having to do any bodywork or paint.

As usual, cut out for enormous tubs then use tires and rims that are too narrow. Use spacers so the front wheels stick out to the edge of the fenders. Horrible look.
