Finally - a wrap up on the little S10 that we swapped a 4.8L LS engine into last year. This time we get it finished up with some exhaust and tuning before going to Muletown Dyno for the final power numbers. Go back to part one for a better look at the swap and stay tuned for more videos on LS-related stuff. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Heck yeah! I put a 2000 ls1 in my 1995 S10. Did a TSP 599-605 lift 233/239 duration @.050 cam, dual valve springs, titanium seats and retainers, chromoly pushrods. That and a 3600 stall converter. Just the cam and it made 382whp on the dyno. So much fun!!
June 26 of this year will be a year since I lost my pops to cancer. Before he passed, he gave me his 02 S10 2.2 extended cab which I’ve driven every single day. I’m a Honda tech by trade so I’ve done SOOO much to this truck from mounts to leveling the rear, paint restoration, having dents pulled, Raptor bed liner, blah, blah, blah. Every single oil seal that can leak, is leaking and I’ll be damned if I’m spending all that time to r&r a 4 cyl and not build a stout v8 to take it’s place. Loved watching your build and I’m hoping to turn mine into what my pops would love to have gone for a ride in. Thanks for the content
Looks like a fun, quick, clean little ride!! 👍👍
Me an pops built a v8 vortec ls1 swap s10.. man I had so much fun driving that thing downtown and racing around, nobody stood a chance. All them kids in their ricers lol was funny revving the engine and stealing away a crowd at a little get together lol I miss it alot
Amazing project, man! I'm surprised at how awesome that exhaust sounds.. guess you don't need to spend the big money on the expensive mufflers! Also.. one of the best cam lopes I've ever heard on an LS. Sounds perfect.
Pretty bad ass little truck, very nice especially for a low budget build. Great work 👍
I'm also a trans plant here to south middle Tenn. Just picked up a 98 S10 2.2 and mentioned doing an LS swap. I was quickly directed to your sight. Great job !! Thanks for the videao and build tips, I look forward with getting my project started.
Good deal! Glsd to hear you have a project truck and found some help in those vids. Keep me posted on the project!
Nice job! Thanks for sharing. This looks like something my Pops would’ve built back in the days. Now I have to start on my LS S-10.
Do it! Good luck.
I just picked up a 97 2.2/4L60 with a blown head gasket for next to nothing, with no plans for it. Your approach to this project is about where I’m at with this s10 of mine. Since it has a good 4l60, I’ll follow in your footsteps. Thanks for all the good info and taking the time to put these videos together! 👍
Those 4L60s are complete junk. You'll be lucky if the 2-3 clutches aren't gone in it. The 2.2 is notorious for the head bolts on the exhaust side losing their stretch and clamping ability from the heat. You'll notice when you go to back the head bolts off all of the ones down the exhaust side will literally be loose already. Make sure you get a head gasket set with new head bolts as they are torque to yield
Getting ready to do the same things to my 03 Great video!
Man I been looking for this video for a while now preciate you doing it man seriously
Great build! Nice job!
Great Job with the S10. I wanna do something like this with a blazer
Awesome! I've got a 2001, 2dr, 2wd Blazer with a 4.3. I've been lookin at V8 swapping. Old school sbc or LS has been the debate. After seeing this I'm leaning towards the LS. And the SS VERSION is what I've been pondering as far as tagging it possibly turbo.
One of the first "lessons" I learned about open diffs is they will leave you stranded if you get into soft sand. For instance, I pulled over for a moment to check my directions and can't get traction to get back on the road, because the open diff sends power w/ the least traction. Not sure why this done/engineered this way, but a LSD diff makes life so much less hassle free and helps lay down the power like posi diffs when doing the straight line boggie. Best single upgrade I made to my 2WD S10 Blazer. Maybe someday I'll have enough money to accomplish an LS swap into my lil' truck. The engines are relatively inexpensive, but all of the little things can and do add up quickly. I've priced all of the extras I'd need and it adds up to $1500-$2000.
good channel with lots of potential. you know your stuff I can see you making it big
love to see you tow something heavy and have everybody confuse not knowing you rocking power on that little truck! HAHA
I have an xstream w/4.3 and my dream is to perform this swap as you did… maybe one day. Great videos keep it going there is a X10 following! 🤘
Great video please keep the s10 videos rolling I want to see what rear you’ll throw it and next a turbo....
just found your channel by recommend videos, instant sub to support my local LS guys! hope to see this thing at cars and coffee or other meets around here!
Love the Tennessee tags 💪💪👍👍
I had an 89 s10 that we put a junkyard 400 in. Put a mini spool in the rear and had a 150 shot of nitrous. Broke the rear on the first launch at Summerduck dragway in Summerduck, Va. I put it on the trailer and took it home. Put it in the field and that's where it sat. My dad sold the property about 5 years ago. I assume it's still there. Last time I was out in the field was about 10 years ago and it was completely covered with weeds and vines.
The zr2 rear is 4" wider than a stock s10 but it's got a posi, it's an 8.5" 10bolt, and has 3.73s, and its a disk brake rear.
jonathan hudson Thanks for the info!
Love it bud! Perfect example of what I've been trying to do for the past few years with my93, nothing crazy, just the reliability and to roast tires, make a few vids on how I did it from a wheelchair! I don't see many dudes like me trying to do that on the tube.
That's awesome. Keep me posted! I love s10s and its a great community of folks sharing tips and insight.
@@MuletownSpeedandDyno Absolutely!
Glad to see Columbia guys still interested in sleepers
now you need an 8.8 from an explorer. Goes right in bro! I did it in my s10 build
Does it actually v
@@matthewschmidt3413 fits just fine brother, very little modification. Just had the get the right u joint to fit the rear end but it was only 15 bucks for a brand new u joint. The rear end was 160 from pick-n-pull.
About time it's only been a year but seriously I enjoy it
Haha thanks I've been waiting for you to finish it up I was hoping it would turn out good I noticed that you are in Columbia Tennessee I drive a truck and go through there quite often and I've seriously had thoughts of doing something very similar knowing now that they've got drop in harnesses it might happen sooner than later
I appreciate it bro and keep on making videos I enjoy them
i love it!!! thanks for the knowledge!!!
Love the truck! Would really like to see you put a lock right locker in the rear axle and line lock on the brakes and do more burnouts!
It would last .0002 seconds and then grenade.
It would definitely explode like glass if I added a posi + sticky tire. But a 215 Chinese crap tire keeps things slippery and safe.
tennessee gang! I'd love to ls swap my s10 at some point. great vid!
@@MuletownSpeedandDyno A little west of nashville! I wanna use that dyno (':
Downtown Mt Misery...lol Great video..
Ls1s should’ve came stock in these
Ls1 wasnt out when s10s were produced
Not true. The first LS engine came in the C5 in 1997. The camaro got the LS1 in 98. This particular truck is a 99.
@@MuletownSpeedandDyno oh, i thought they ran of modernised 350 chevy engines, then te reason that these didnt get an ls engine is that it whould be pretty useless for a worktruck and whould be an oversized syclone xD
I think economy was the name of the game at the time and since the LS was so new it was still pretty expensive. To your point, loading up a work truck with one didn't make corporate sense.
@@MuletownSpeedandDyno i have been wanting to ls swap my truck for the past 6 months now, but i rather beef up the 350 it has right now haha, all forged so should be able to take some boost and performance upgrades hehe
Your S10 roars like a monster!
Thanks!
@@MuletownSpeedandDyno You're welcome.
I love V8 s10s really appreciate what u doing on that project I got a 91 S10 project rite now wish me luck I hope I can do it I did one before back in 2004 but that was before they made motor Mount brackets
Sounds sick
Very nice video I really enjoy I love the truck and the condition of the truck is a Sleeper
👍
Thanks for watching!
I've been waiting for this!!!!
well done....im gonna do my 2000 blazer 2 door same......cept mines 4.3 v6 stock
doing a sonoma swap. kind of, it neededa new chassis so i bought a tube chassis kit from Heidts. coming along pretty good.
I have a 2003 chevy s10 v6 2wd cant wait to do a ls swap soon 🤝
Nice good luck with the build.
niiice quality videos bro. keep going.
Please keep going and really make it like a “factory” SS (lower it some and put a lsd)
Jeff Anderson if you put an LSD in that rear it will grenade. 8.8 absolute best swap for V8 s10. Great posi, 31 spline. Leaf sprung. 355, 373 or 410s and dirt cheap
@@Matp345 for making a "factory" SS, a factory 8.5 with posi that came in 4.3 manual trucks is the best swap, and if you find one in a pick up it will have a hop shock too. will handle a ton of power and it bolts right in.
@@BlueMonkeyGames1 I had a 95 automatic 4.3 S10. While most of my friends had 2.2 (This was back in high school and about 15 of us all had S10's that were lowered with 17s and 18s. Anyway, only 2 had 4.3's beside me and one was an auto and he died in a car accident about 15 years ago, the other one was a manual S10 and it was awesome, but about 3 weeks ago he was driving it and accidentally pulled out in front of a truck and died due to injuries from the wreck. What's crazy is they both kept their's and died. Here's the really weird part. I sold mine about 5 years ago to a friend, and he died within a year, but it was of natural causes.
@@tarheelspeighty9645 Moral of the story.....your friends are morons.
Tar Heel Speighty S10’s aren’t cursed.
I want to put this setup in a 65 corvair. Sounds good
One wheel peel is a lot easier to control. Sweet ride.
Thank you for this video!!!!! I have the same color, year, and trim. Except mine is still the 2.2 and a 5 speed. I want to keep it a 5 speed. But with a NV3500 and or a 4.8/5.3.....
Make it the muletown shop truck. This is inspiration for me to gather parts this year.......
Since it's a 5 speed you already have the 8.5 rear end too!
Man I miss my s10 ss. Had a 5.3 radar blue truck and a white 96 s10 ss I wanted to swap as well
My dream is to have this exact truck but yet Im stuck with a 2.2. I have the exact same paint, cab and it's a stick. Same damn everything. Beautiful truck man.
For about $700 bucks you can double the hp from your 2.2 with a basic turbo kit & tune. Offers great bang for the buck while still keeping the weight of the front end down and also keeping it 100% reliable. People who do turbo+tube+internals can get close to 300 hp and still under $3k.
@@racers115 sweet m, thnx for the info. I was investing in a astro van and pulling out that motor but in still want the turbo 2.2
Love that Chevy !!!
Looks like great little sleeper. Where's the parts costs breakdown? Thanks keep it up 🤘
Except with less than 300 h.p. it's sleepin so hard, it can barely wake up. Also, the exhaust note kinda gives away the fact that there's a big block under the hood.
@@truckerenoch8824 It’s A Small Block Idiot. One Of The Smallest Blocks Chevy Ever Made
@@TheIndoGod what are you talking about? Are you referring to a different comment? Because any "sleeper" with a sbc should be putting out 350hp at the very least!
Good sleeper build
Ur welcome brother love one day to get a ride
I put a Chevy 350 in a 1989 S10 the problem is if you get just a little bit of rain there's not enough weight in the back end it makes for an extremely scary experience
Put sand bags in the bed
I hope you add a disc brake 2wd 2nd gen Blazer rear end to that S10
I could see a tire shop jabroni having a look and saying "yep, textbook case of forgetting to rotate yer tires..."
Cool truck should be more S10 LS swaps and builds. They are nice with any 6.0 plus LS engine in them.
I do like to run high flow cats and mufflers.
The 4.3 vortec version is the best to start with.
I would love to have this s10
Nice build man. Has it been reliable? No problems doing a to b?
Any updates? I want to see it with a LSD for proper 2 wheel drive action.
I want to see that station wagon on the channel!
Hey man I’m from Columbia and I’m doing a 4.8 swap into a single cab s10 as well! I would love to check yours out sometime soon and talk with you! Hopefully I could get some pointers! I was surprised to find someone local doing the same thing. Small world lol!
7.65 28 spline Eaton style locker on eBay $325. I put 1 in my s10 and it works GREAT
Love this! Doing the same cam and springs on my 4.8! Did you change the pushrods? If so what did you do
MuletownSpeed did you do the 22ft lb method or the eoic? I did the 22 and it seems like the rockers are sloppy when I rotate the engine
Blower or turbo and 2 wheel peels please
The ls1 is the same size and it’s 100 pounds lighter then iron blocks and it will put down 290 whp stock with a small cam headers and tune 360 and I mean small cam no idle problems smooth as stock if you can deal with some lope then 400 whp with headers cam intake is no problem
I concur. with that said, a 400HP LS1 all throttle no bottle ect is a nasty little motor. tough to get there (400HP) on a Mustang dyno...
Probably availability where he's at and price. Say LR4 at a junkyard then say LS1. Price jumps way up. At least here in Detroit.
What kind of MPG were you getting on it? I wanna build a daily driver like this.
A zr2 s10 has an 8.5" with 3.73s, a limited slip, and disc brakes but I'm pretty sure its 4" wider all together or it may even be 4" wider in each side (I cant remember for sure) I think the 4x4 is 2"s wider than a 2wd and the zr2 is 2"s wider than a 4x4, making it 4" wider than a 2wd. Just look up the options that separate the regular s10 from a ZR2. It maybe an option for you but it's a good bit wider that the rear you have now. The zr2 is a beast of an S10. I have an L33 5.3L that I'm gathering parts for the swap. I also have a turbo laying around for it.
How much did it cost overall and how much for the engine alone also
Heyyyyyy I know you in Columbia. I know those roads. Lol I used to be the Orkin man in that area. I moved to Michigan last year.
Wow I love it I wish you lived next to me so you could be my mechanic.
I need more Info on this got a 99 extended cab I want to 5.3 swap
Does the front end feel heavy when driving? Did you make any changes to the factory suspension?
I call it a rumor, but the Xtreme was to have a 5.3. The Colorado in the later years got the 5.3 in the crew cab only
How much do you think it was all together to build this? I have a 1997 ss s10 that I want to ls swap like this.
Did you use the Stainless Works headers?
Is this truck for sale in the Knoxville craigslist right now? If it's not there is one Identical to it.
Hey Mule town ! Goat capital here Marshall county lol
also man I would love for u to let me know how u got your gas gauge and your speedometer working mine don’t work I’ve been trying to figure it out forever. We got the LS out of a 2003 Suburban and used its CPU and wiring harness
A posi rear and a procharger next.
What break booster did u use
How would a similar build do in a currently stock 02 zr2?
What rearend did you use? Also what gears?
I love my ls swap s10
Love the pig, trucks decent too. Was that a mustang dyno?
I have an S10 1999 ex cab and I want to do this. Yes this is cool
That’s a nice build I’m looking to do something similar. Do you think that cam is a little big for a 4.8 though?
@@MuletownSpeedandDyno i may have missed it but what converter are you running with it?
Did you have to use two oxygen sensors connections one in each side. Because i did my own harness by lt1 swap and it said to only keep one the main up stream. Is this all i need plus wide band
What did you do to fit the radiator?
What stall converter did you use in this truck
Which mounts did you use? Did you have to notch anything?
Love it! I now have a 1998 short bed standard cab 5 speed S10 and the stock 5.3 out of my 2003 Silverado.... WooHoo gettin' fired up! How much does it weigh now?
@@MuletownSpeedandDyno Yup... T56 is the plan and I was concerned about adding the weight to the front... so I was considering an all aluminum L33... my 98 S10 came with ZQ8 suspension from the factory which seems very odd for a base model to me and it sits really low... I was expecting to need to change the front springs out... we'll see... for now I plan on using the 2003 5.3 from my Silverado... she's got 291000 miles, ran perfect but developed an antifreeze sipping habit so I used that as a reason to swap it out for an LQ9 6.0!
@@MuletownSpeedandDyno curious... have you checked the fuel mileage with the new setup?
MuletownSpeed ah cool! I only get 19mpg with the extremely weak 2.2L 😳 I’m planning on doing the same with mine. but I’ll switch to automatic...tired of shifting gears 😂
I just got same gen sonoma 4 banger I'm gonna do this to, cannot wait!!! Thank you for excellent video quality and info, I don't know if this was covered but did you use factory 4 banger driveshaft or did you have to get a custom one made? I would think 4 banger 60e would be same length and splines but not sure if 80e's were anything different or if you had to use slip yoke off the donor 80e truck? Sorry if silly question.
Thanks for watching and its not a silly question. I used the stock 4cyl driveshaft and swapped out the slip yoke for a 4l80e yoke. Since the 4l80e is longer I had the DS shortened an inch or so.
I definitely wanna swap a v8 in my s10, and ditch the 4 banger
How much you estimate putting a corvette engine?
Did it have the ac back ?
What oil pan did you use
The next thing you have to do before anything is upgrade the cylinder heads. That would be bad ass
Did you use a v6 radiator or the original?
The one wheel peel
Did you cut frame for oil pan clearance, I'm doing 5.3 swap with same oil pan. Taking engine out today
Lol
What did you use to cool it?
Do the rear brake shoes grab in cold/damp weather? (I'm told that the organic/ceramic shoes are better because they won't oxidize..)
That's a great question. I have no idea. I try not to use the brakes!
