Guest mrhobbz Posted March 10, 2006 Report Share Posted March 10, 2006 So im about to buy a 94' chevy s10 pickup, short bed yada yada. Right now it has a 4.6L vortec sitting in it. Now the question is (and consider power to cost ratio, i want to spend the least amount of money) should I drop a 350 in it, or keep the 4.3 and throw a vortech s-trim supercharger on it? Any opinions would be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mrhobbz Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Hmmmmm, an LS1 will sit in an s10 right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurkvinny Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Dollar for dollar, you will go faster and quicker with a V8 installed than fucking around with the 4.3 <--- 4.3, not 4.6. If you go the V8 route, there are some great V8 S10 resources here on CR, including me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractor Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Yeah v8 its much better. I'm not 100% sure, but the 5 speed may not be enough for a built v8. If I were you I'd just save the trouble and do a TH 350 or 400 trany. Evan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
