http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif after a year of setting it all up, i finally got the exhaust done this evening.
thou its on the road, its not complete yet.
Are these toys ever complete?
It ran great http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif
Ran a little hot (210) but hell it dont have a fan shroud, its only got a flex fan and the redline additive.
This site has got to be the best site for help and information on making the swap.
Theres a lot of knowledge here.
thanks guys, and girls :-p
let the fun begin. http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif
That\'s cool. Mine will never be done, but I don\'t work on it much.

really the hardest part i had to deal with was the driveshaft
considering i rebuilt the entire front end also, aswell as had a custom dash made, work in progress.

my first run i drove it around town with no grille and no hood. it was great though. i couldnt belive how fast it was. it definetly makes it worth the effort. http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif

Get you some World Products S/R Torquers they would be perfect for that setup..probably see close to a 50hp gain over what you have now.

I put the S/R Torquers on my truck and i love em, best set of 202 heads i have ever owned, considering that all the rest have been factory 202, but either way i love em. And 50 horses is about right. Wish they were aluminum though. Oh well can\'t have everything. http://www.s10v8.com/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif
