Re: S10 Swap..

the best s10 frame to use is a single cab long box. The wheelbase is the closes to the stock frame wheelbase if your truck is a short box. Left me know if you have any other questions.

Re: S10 Swap..

Heyy.

I changed my mind, I am going to use the original frame..
everything is still in a perfect condition..
I am looking now to order a IFS Mustang 2 frontend and a 9"
axle incl a 4 link system..
last weekend I finish my engine..
its a 7.4 L Big Block..
I painted everything red, and put new valve covers on it, Black ones,
with Chevrolet on it.. the middle section is all Edelbrock with a 14"air filter.
I am looking to put some pictures on this site, but its not working..
