Yeah, I had an s-10 I drove for a couple years in the city,with a manual trans.your right too much foot work/stick.especially in traffic.what are you running in yours for gears? When we rebuilt my striker motor that was in my camaro we used a comp cams 280 lift my brother said if you go any bigger you start to have street ability issues I still have the stock rearend in mine.seems like it needs a little lower gearing like it's 273and it needs 342s or something I'm not racing the truck ,so I don't want to go too low.i like having a little top end.gotta get the right rearend under it next.
