OMFG!!!!

I am now searching for ZR2 S10/Sonoma's because bigger front and rear axles. I am going to take the V8 out of my 1/2 ton because apparently Vortec V8's swap really easily. Also this will fulfill a failed attempt. I still have all the parts left from the last time I tried this including an engine.

I think you’re wife is certifiably awesome. You need to buy flowers first.

Be fore the zr2 there was the zq8 package which had all the zr2 stuff but without the body kit. I had a 97. Square headlights. It was great! Except by 75k miles it had an electric smell every time it turned left and the GM quality paint was going bad.

Other engine options include the 3.9 v6 grom the G6 that respo nds REALLY well lughtly breathed on by a regular ole turbo. F bodys seeing 11s with that combo. But...a 5.3 i s a saweet than g!

Somehow I read this as V10 S8.

Yours is way more reliable though. Nice!

But what did you okay in the process to get it?! More kids? An automatic sports car? An ugly small dog? Paying for boobs? Quitting her job to go back to school to be a dietician?!

Just kidding. Congrats. She must be wonderful if she’ll let you build a small metal death trap that runs like a raped ape! :)

Well I al ready have the V8 soooo.... It would be a 5.7 small block. Not LS. I want LS but I Don't know if I can fudge that at the moment. Also, on the the newer ZR2's they have an easy to program ECU.

Lol I got really close but it got cold and I gave up which is a lame excuse. I also got tired of fixing rust  issues.

I agreed to stop spending money on other broken truck. She also likes that it would be a smaller truck than the one I have. She used to drive a GMC Jimmy and liked that.

I misread that and thought she okayed a V10 S8.

This is a much smarter investment

I think that’s a sign you need to buy a V10 S8 and straight pipe it to sound like a true Lamborghini.

I like this idea but need a bottomless pit of money to fund it.

Needs more manual swap also
