I'm not familiar w/this kit so I can't comment on its 'usability'. i guess the concern is that even with a kit i expect you'll have to modify the front sheetmetal somewhat. (inner fenders, running boards, and something for the radiator off the top of my head)

Would hate to have you have to trim up some panels that you patched because doing that takes up that valuable resource...time. of course these are just my thoughts...I don't know your time frame /budget/ donor availability, so my thoughts are worth a grain of salt.

Hopefully some of the S10 frame swap maestros will chime in.
