Re: Are you building or commuting in your S10?
My 91' sonoma was my daily driver/show truck.I'll post pics tomarrow. It has been in the forgotten stage for 3 yrs now. I sold the torq thrust's to buy some wider rears. I was messing with it today. Ill be bringing it home tomarrow as it will under go a complete redo starting this weekend. When finished it will be back to being driven as much as possible. I have thought about doing a 350 TBI install but wasnt sure. Every one I know has had problems with leaking headers and collector issues where the hit the floor pans. Any one know of a good set of headers out there?

It might be more cash, but i have thought of a mild performance rebuild on the existing 4.3 thats in mine at some point. It seems to me to be the ideal engine for these trucks unless you are going racing. Its lighter than a V-8 and can probably make as much horsepower as a mild 350 (but les tq), stock, it already will bury the speedo needle easilly -- a little more compression, better flowing heads and more fuel and who knows --- maybe not exactly 350 territory, but would likely easily surpass 305 numbers
