Re: s10 v8
this was the second month in and it dont look to pretty under everything lol ill try to get some pics of how it is soon i havent been able to work on it lately cause i have to wait for my dad to be off of work for once to help me out with taking out the engine, were gunna stick to the fuel injected which leaves me with another question, my dad keeps saying all we need to change is the computer for the 350 and be able to re-use the wire harness but i looked at all the connections and i think we would have to get a new wire harness so if anyone knows anything about either sides of that could you help me please?

Re: s10 v8
I once did a swap on an early 90's full size. It originally had a 4.3 and we swapped in a 5.0. If I recall correctly, the computer was a direct plug-in, some of the sensor wires had to be extended. I think that was it. I did this swap approximately 10 yrs ago. So there may be some things I have forgot. If I am incorrect I'm sure someone here will correct me.
There is also an s-10 section on here. You may want to check it out, you might find your answers there. Oh yeah, Welcome to the board!!!!!!!!! Jason Posted via Mobile Device

Re: s10 v8
havent been able to get much done lately between school and helping the my girl around the house but i gave up on the doors that i was going to use because they wouldnt work right plus they were already rusted bad from sitting on the ground outs side for a few years so started putting the old door back together and apperintly when my dad and his buddy moved all my stuff to fix the garage door they lost my clips, rod, and bolt for mounting the inside handle!!

Re: s10 v8
well im using what im learning from my new job to my advantage and starting some body work on the s10. i still need to get more coarse sand paper to do more but im going to patch up this little part in a effort to save the whole box, all i did was poke out all the rust spots so i have a rough idea of what i need to fix

Re: s10 v8
my game plan for the rest of the week is sand down on spare doors we were going to use before the bottoms rusted out and salvage all the sheet metal i can then start patching up the fenders and what else i can with that
