Thank you for sharing guys. My first ever car/truck was a 1993 s10. I payed 10 grand cash for it at the age of 15. I would mow yards and saved all the cash I made to buy a truck. Thanks for sharing with us. God Bless.
In the future here, but for 20 bucks you can get a bench bleed kit form your local parts store. Keeps the mess down and you can see when the bubbles clear.
Forever waitin on Doug to come out with a 88-94 obs Chevy lightweight race column!!! I wish there was more to offer as far as direct bolt in parts for those trucks. like manual steering conversion & manual brakes. I ended up making my own manual brake setup deal but I still got power steering.. I’d like to do away with it. ideally I’d rather have just alternator only being driven by the belt. cause I plan on going electric water pump
Y'all need some transfer punches instead of sharpie marks. They will also give you a nice mark for your drill bit to start on. More rpm for the drill press on them smaller drills! Loving the Blazer build!
I see these kits only go back to 1988. I have an 82. I have 6 piston front calipers and will be going to 4 spiton rear calipers soon. I want to upgrade the master cylinder. Will the kit for first gen still work?
Could I use this type of conversation with my 1998 chevy Blazer 4 door 4WD 4.3 motor?? This really has my attention Lol I'm trying to eliminate the big bulky brake booster these came with. LMK what you think and if not do you have any ideas 💡🤔 always love to learn new stuff plus I have a few friends probably be interested as well.
I've got a 2001 blazer xtreme and want to put a 350 with posi trac in it, sooo whats the best gear ratio to hav in it to drag? Thanks I love you guys's videos man
I have 00' Blazer brakes on the front of mine that require 1/4in line. Is that the main difference between first and second gen? I don't see any info about this on your webpage.
@@alexx9563 not at all, i did it with my full interior still in the truck (yk getting under them s10 dashes a pain in the ass) in a couple of hours total brakes bled and all.
It was said in the video 94 and up s- series. With a stiffening plate and some careful measurements it can be done on the 82-93 s-series. I would definitely suggest aftermarket disk all the way around to improve stopping power if you are going to manual brakes though.
Can anyone tell me exactly what the benefits would be with manual brakes vs power brakes? Im building a 94 s10 thats for the streets but its a corner carver. I have been shopping around for a new master cylinder as mine needs to be replaced. Im running a wilwood proportional valve to eliminate the abs. Would manual brakes work better?
Is the engine modified? The biggest reason to go to manual brakes is if you are running an aggressive camshaft or boost( ie turbo or blower). Engine vacuum is diminished with turbo/blower or aggressive camshafts.
@@BigNastyOffroad the engines gonna be fully built stroked LS. Forged internals. Very mild camshaft though not much chop to it to keep it quiet and tame. My guess with the displacement 550ish horsepower give or take. All motor for now. Big 6 piston front brakes with 14 in rotors up front not sure if that matters.
I would say that I have seen people stay with power brakes in some S10 pick ups for roadcourse use and have not had problems especially with the brake upgrades you've already done. I have a 91 ext cab 2wd S10 working on collecting the parts for the drivetrain right now. I am going for a street/strip setup and if I can't build the vacuum for power brakes there is always a vacuum pump. The assist with power brakes is nice for a street driven truck but pure track driving manual with big brakes all day
@@BigNastyOffroad thank you much appreciated. Im switching to disc brakes in the rear and wasn’t sure what i should use for the master cylinder already needs to be replaced as it leaks anyway.
@@mjrartist69 manual has better pedal feel and always feels the same so your braking is more consistent. Power is fine if you don’t care about all that and just want the easiest possible braking
@@MotionRaceworksOfficial a few questions. When swapping from power to your manual kit do you need to use proportion valve? Also after I installed the manual master cylinder when I stand on brakes hard it cause them to stick for awhile then release on their own after a few minutes. Do I need to adjust pedal rod to fix that?
If you have an s10, you basically can not do this without removing the entire dash…. Unless… you cut your fire wall up a shit ton like me….. I absolutely regret buying this kit and hearing you say “oh I think you can do it without removing your dash….
Any way to retain the factory brake switch? Or is there an aftermarket alternative? Just installed this on a 94 4.3 no brake lights and no way to re attach the factory brake switch on the pedal after doing this conversion
More S-10 parts, please. Take my money!
Damn I've been waiting on more Blazer content.
What the progress on this unit!!!! This has got to be one of my favorite builds!!!
202 views in 18 mins. Yall are doing great. Thank you guys for putting out great content and parts.
Bit of a voice crack at 3:28 cracked me up for some reason. I was eating cereal and spit milk out of my nose 😂😂😂. Man I needed a laugh like that.

I did this on a Monte Carlo with 4 wheel discs. Used an iroc master, cut the booster for the mount and used a chevette pushrod.
I would LOVE LOVE to see a Gbody manual brake swap vid!!!!
Me too if they’d post one I’d instantly buy the kit!!!
ive been looking at this blazer kit as using blazer brakes on my gbody.
Fact
We used a gen1 s10 kit on my son's Malibu.

Sweet ill be getting that. Im so glad your doing this truck cause im starting an 03 small tire and will need all your stuff that column too
Hey !! Thanks I have your guys's kit for my 81 Camaro I'm sure it's pretty much basic same thing, good video 👌 T Bear Racing 🤙
Right on!
I can tell you this was a great video it help me out big time with my 91 S10

You say pulling the dash out is easy.Did you happen to video this process?I'm thinking of pulling mine to make moving firewall back 2-3in.

Liking the product spotlight videos, nice touch!
Used to work in that shop when it was community care. Looks like the same two lifts even.
Buddy of mine used this on his 88 Silverado with 4 disk brakes
Would that also fit a ‘81 Gbody since they use the same bar ale parts?
How do you retain the factory brake switch with this kit?
It clips on the factory pin on the brake pedal which is still there.
I see these kits only go back to 1988. I have an 82. I have 6 piston front calipers and will be going to 4 spiton rear calipers soon. I want to upgrade the master cylinder. Will the kit for first gen still work?
Any major differences in an 82-93 pickup install? Is that a different conversion kit?

Nice knowledge Doug. Some 4th gen fbody stuff would be nice.
Like a abs delete kit for starters 😃
Hey Doug. Is this install the same as one the 1st gen s10 kit?
What seat bracket did you use for your kirkey I have a 55 series and can’t find a bracket anywhere since the floor is all uneven
Got your brake kit what are you using for a gas pedal?
I've got a 2001 blazer xtreme and want to put a 350 with posi trac in it, sooo whats the best gear ratio to hav in it to drag? Thanks I love you guys's videos man
What is the part #
I wonder how well it would feel on a everyday driver I know you change the ratio I just wonder how much different it would feel I'm just a regular car
I don't really see a difference between this second gen kit and a first gen. Looks like it would work with my 91 or is there something I am missing?
I have 00' Blazer brakes on the front of mine that require 1/4in line. Is that the main difference between first and second gen? I don't see any info about this on your webpage.
Is there a video on installing this on a first gen s10?
Could this work for universal? Like a 54 Pontiac?
Is there instructions for the second generation Camaro kit.
When will you have them back in stock?
What’s the kit number and do you have for first gen s10 blazer as well
How do u take brake pedal off!?? Im having a hard time with that!
So does one of the gm truck kits fit gbody? From tbm it looks like it.
What about abs delete and parts used to do so?
so do i need a proportioning valve?
Soo did u? Just purchased my kit
@@alexx9563 yes!!!
@@kaydendelgado6 how hard was the install??
@@alexx9563 not at all, i did it with my full interior still in the truck (yk getting under them s10 dashes a pain in the ass) in a couple of hours total brakes bled and all.
@@kaydendelgado6 what propo valve did u go with? Did u also need a t fitting
Do you use the block with this kit
Can a guy run manual brakes along with anti lock ?
I'm buying this. I'll make a video of installing it. Thanks fuckers!!
wheres the series of this blazer build
Any kits for a 92’ GMC Typhoon?
Great info.
Whos firewall plate is that
Can this work on a 95 c1500?
Hey what's the performance of this conversation every one rags on manual breaks
I'm trying to avoid paying 800 bucks for a break booster would you say you could safely drive this setup in traffic and daily driving
Currently building a 94 s10 putting in a 6.ol this gives me another option TY
This has nothing to do with this truck but James and Wally need a whipple supercharger for race week!!!!!!!!
hoooooooooray! 🔥🔥🔥
Do you have one for the 85 s10
No we only have 88 and up at this time.
It was said in the video 94 and up s- series. With a stiffening plate and some careful measurements it can be done on the 82-93 s-series. I would definitely suggest aftermarket disk all the way around to improve stopping power if you are going to manual brakes though.

I want to know about a 93 s10
I need this for an 84 k20
Please somebody please make a tubular radiator support 🙏 for this year s10
Hey bud I know a guy who makes them custom
Why?
And now you don't have a brake light switch.
There are a lot of options for making that easy. In our door car brake kit, the proportioning valve has a built in sensor that is pressure actuated
@@MotionRaceworksOfficial a few questions.
When swapping from power to your manual kit do you need to use proportion valve?
Also after I installed the manual master cylinder when I stand on brakes hard it cause them to stick for awhile then release on their own after a few minutes.

Close
Close all
Or just get a hydroboost
If you have an s10, you basically can not do this without removing the entire dash…. Unless… you cut your fire wall up a shit ton like me….. I absolutely regret buying this kit and hearing you say “oh I think you can do it without removing your dash….
Totally not true. I just installed this kit on my 96 S10 with stock dash and steering in place. Was it a pain...yep, but its totally doable.
