Ughhhh, I just got notified on the newest so I'm rewatching to catch back up. You know I'm serious because we've talked since this came out!! Lol, youtube had indeed changed my notifications AGAIN. Yall! Make sure you STAY SUBSCRIBED AND NOTIFIED! anyways, I'm just doing a refresh lol, then on to the new video. Later Gators
GRATE BUILD cant wait to see her drop 11s in the road😁!!!!!!!!! I have a 01 GMC Sonoma(4dr) CrewCab tbh your the reason I went vortec instead of LS just to be different let the haters hate...if it blow or go there gonna hate anyway THERE HATERS THATS WHAT THAY DO
I literally bought this exact truck a week ago, 2nd owner with 140k miles. She's well taken care of and runs good but needs a tiny bit of work. I'm excited to see what i can do with it. I think im gonna keep her stock because it's basically gonna be my daily but I've seen people get a lot out of just the stock engine and upgrades.
Zr2s are hard to come by in good condition. I found mine at 130k and rebuilt the whole front end. Replaced the suspension shortly after doing the front end and found out the previous owner put stock s10 shocks on it which are 1-2” height differences. So make sure ur buying the right parts when it comes to the drive train and suspension. Other than that and changing out the distributor to brass points I love my truck and will be a LS1 project in the near future
This is super cool to see considering I was getting ready to cam my 97 vortec yukon next year. I was looking into the summit 8802 cam for mine, head gasket swap, worked heads for lift support, injector upgrade and possibly an ecm swap. If you could do another video with more information and specs, that would be great. I see you kept your stock intake manifold as well, I’m curious to see how well it works!
Thanks man, the only reason I stuck with stock intake is to keep the whole computer system working like stock. I wanted everything in this truck like normal. I got it running pretty strong now. It's basically a vortec with 195 AFR heads flat top pistons and suporting mods.
@@WELDERUPGARAGE like Clark said, 2 most known pcm mail in's right there. if your as moded as me just keep in mind its not gona be 100% perfect off the shelf... you will need dyno tune or good street tune (if u put a AFR gauge on it), to finish it off. Good luck man!
This is awesome, didn't know they made spider injectors that can support 500 HP!😳 Compression should be fine as long as your tuner can make it like to run at 180°F. I wouldn't go with a thermostat lower than that because it might let the water flow to fast that will make it overheat? But you can try if you want? Better off running one of those restrictor plates instead of a thermostat if you want to go lower. A good cooling system with a 180° stat should be good though. Now tell me all about those spider injectors that can support 500 HP and where the flock to get those?!! I was just thinking about that wondering if anyone figured out how to make those spider injectors support more than 330 HP. Can't wait to see what you make on the dyno.😎👍
I agree with you on the 180.. i’ll probably do some back-to-back tests and see how it acts between 160 that I was told to run vs the high flow 180 have.
I was going to order my injectors from a website called FIVEO motorsports.. but my tuner apparently has his own source “PCM for less” there might be other places you can get them if you do some research. There’s some big boy injectors out there, bigger than what I got.
@@nicholsperformance92 Wow, no one hot rodded the sbc Vortec engines because of the limiting injectors. About time they figured out how to alter those. To bad they didn't make them so they can be mounted externally so there can be more air flow.🤔🤷😎👍
This has been one of the coolest series I've seen of TH-cam in a while. If it blows up or not I love the idea of the diy machine shop
Thanks man! I learned so much vs if I just dropped it off at a shop.

Dude, you did all the work off camera. I was wanting to see that
That is a bad azz looking truck!!!!

Hell yeah, that's a sweet find! Finding any s10 in good condition is getting hard.

@@nicholsperformance92 Aren’t you running the summit 8802 as well?
Who did your tune?
We are currently building a very similar engine and could really use your same tune.
@@WELDERUPGARAGE I used blackbear performance for my current mostly stock truck. Mr. Nichols used PCM4Less

With a good set of aluminum heads and efficient modern combustion chamber design it’ll be fine .
That’s what I was thinking originally. Ls1 and 6 have compression in the 10s.
LMAO! 🤣🤣🤣 That's slow as hell!🤣🤣🤣
You ain’t kidding. This b**ch needs turned up!

Oh yeah, that little S10 should be light enough as well if you can control the temperature to stay at 180°.😎👍

Agreed. Whoever came up with the whole spider thing was on drugs!
