Another s-10 swap question

[gusman]

I have a 52 on a 97 Dakota chassis. I ended up having to move the motor back 5" or so to clear a radiator. Keep in mind the motors in those chassis (as well as the rear diffs) are positioned slightly on the passenger side of the chassis. Haven't touched it in a year due to building a house but hoping next summer being able to start in on it again.

I used this chassis because I already had the dakota and the motor had 1000 miles on it and all new chassis components when I realized a 97 dakota would never really be "cool" so I yanked the sheet metal off and picked up a rotted out '52 and the rest is history. The dimensions do line up really nicely though.
