S10 V8 Swap: The V6 comes out to make way for the V8!!!

[@blackmambaz2850]

Good taste in music breaking benjamin playing in the background. Great video showing how this is done too

[@ronlemon640]

Take your hoses off on the engine side and then lift radiator out simplify anything you can to save steps n time. Anyway just my opinion man good video

[@setixalphagobotsearchengin2935]

Does Less to no humidity make working on Rusted metal parts easier?

[@kingsizedkidsmeal3192]

Love the videos man great content, love to see progress on the s10

"How high will this thing go?" I think thats my question every time I'm pulling an engine

That sawzall was kickin you're ass 🤣

[@jeffhertzberg4481]

Good job, Roman. Just a word from an old rodder, not a good idea to stand your hood on the "Points". Rather, if you have to stand it up, stand it on the side (Points facing to the right or left). Just some free advice from someone who has bent a hood or two.

[@RomanMeissner]

Jeff Hertzberg Thank you for watching and thank you for the tip, I'll keep that in mind!

[@GHSTTHERENEGADE]

Hey Jeff what are your thoughts on EFI now a days

[@puch7261]

wheres link to you putting v8? and what parts you used?

[@jamesseever4885]

What trans did you put in the S10 for the swap

[@Stelerris]

Did you have to change your motor mounts for the sbc

[@herschelrowe6026]

I've done a bunch of s10s if you're going to clean every thing to make things easier to get to there's not that many bolts holding the front clip on remove it it's easier to get engine out and back in and if your using shorty headers you can cut the back corners of the fender welds two fold helps with air flow to keep cooler and you can get to collectors easyer

[@drmachinewerke1]

You have a vid on that.

[@profilename1337]

I love steely look on s10

[@MichelLinschoten]

For sure will be doing that to mine sooner or later...i had a 6.6l 400sbc crane cammed blazer (see video) was a beast. So will be doing it to my 1988 s10 i'll stick to a 5.7l this time tho haha. Also next time make it yourself easier, pull with a carb plate.

[@juniorestrada863]

Nice video!! I have a 1985 Chevy s10 with a 2.5l 4 cylinder engine. I’ve been dying to to an engine swap but don’t have all the experience, tools and money to do so (right now) how hard is this? And what transmission did you use with the new engine?

[@Jihadbearzwithgunz]

If its a early 5.7 tbi it would be a 700r4(auto) (in most cases)

[@DAVIDISEPIC1111]

LowMan Josh what if i want to go 5.7 but use the stock 2.8 5 speed

[@Jihadbearzwithgunz]

@@DAVIDISEPIC1111 if yoy baby it itll survive otherwise would need to rebuild it with a kit for a worldclass t5 for a mustang 5.0 . the non world class t5 wasnt made for that power also wouldnt bolt right up. The bell housong is different

How did you run the gas pump to the carb . I can't get the pump to come on when I switch it on mine is a 95 s10

[@ghostandbell2006]

How big of a difference is the gas consumption on a v6 vs v8 in an s10?

[@Evan-eq3uh]

I would say that the v6 is equal to the v8 in fuel consumption but 1/4 the power .

[@ghostandbell2006]

@@Evan-eq3uh also same question in regards to 4cyl. vs. v6

[@ghostandbell2006]

@@Evan-eq3uh maybe a v6 manual similar gas consumption to the 4cyl. manual (or automatic) would you say?

@@ghostandbell2006 manual always gets better fuel economy no mater what in my experience. My v6 auto is a dog unless your going to maintain about 50 mph in a straight line. It’s about to be v8 stick shift swapped.

[@troybrake5686]

Why would you not strip the block when it was out, if your v8 it

[@What-is-your-purpose]

I’m here because I’m thinking of swapping mine 93 with a Cadillac CTS 3.6 turbo engine lol only because my 93 Engine blew up lol

[@glinester]

You forgot to mark around the hinge so it will be easier to put on in alignment.

[@JC-wx7wx]

Are you going to put in a 5.3 LS V8 or a regular small block 350 V8

350

Hi Roman, Would you or do you know anyone that would be willing to do a 350 TPI swap in my 1987 S10 Blazer, Tahoe, 2.8 V-6 4X4. It is a 62K mile garage kept like new condition survivor. Original two tone blue paint. Looks like it was never sat in, under the hood it looks like it was never put on the road. It needs the swap, its 2.8 is slower than a riding lawn mower and it just won't get out of its own way.

You can

You could use the existing transmission, but it wont hold up for long especially if you are pushing some horsepower. Get a camaro or TA manual transmission that's built to hold some power
