Default Puttin a Blue oval in a bowtie
Anyone know of a kit with mounts etc for putting a REAL motor in a S-10. I just came across one and it only seems right to go ahead and sub-in a real powerplant.

As much as I like Ford V8's, for a swap into an S10 it'll probably be a lot cheaper for you to stick a chevy V8 in there instead, conversion kits for that are easy to find.

The only reason to use a Ford V8 is if you already had one sitting around, which doesn't sound like the case here. Advanced adaptors has kits for Chevy swaps
