Default Project: BIG RED ---- 350 s10

As you all know, big blaze went down. I soon after found out, big blaze was beyond my mechanical limits, so i got rid of it and some cash for this s10.

- 350 V8
- bored .030 over to 355
- turbo 350 transmission
- holley carb 600cfm
- hedman headers
- 275-60-15 tires in the rear
- shift kit
- mild cam

thats all i know about it and what came with it.

Im going to be sharing my build with you guys, and hopefully sell this after summer for another blazer. Here are some pics!

Nice little truck. I would get some different mirrors for it though... I always hated those.

Oh, and those chrome Altezza tail lights have gotta go IMO lol.

IMO you could use about two coats of VHT NiteShade on the tail lights and buff them with some 3M rubbing compound to make them shine and look professional.

That truck's body is in great shape!! How's it running?

awesome little truck...i agree on tail lights..imo there comes a time when they just dont work anymore. i think the older the ride the less they work.
i agree...some engine pics would be nice.

I think a roll pan would look sick on that truck, the big chrome bumper doesn't really fit in with the rest of the truck.

Since it's a small truck... and you named it "Big Red" I vote you should add a little quote to your sig that says "Big where it counts" or something like that
