Check it. Do you guys think it would be dope to drop a turbo Ecotec out of a Solstice GXP into a round-body S-10? We want to hear! I heard Auto-Mo is thinking about it.

I would do that in a heatbeat, I just did a turbo on my 93 Toyota and it is awesome.  I support that idea 100%

I thought about that, but wanted to drop it into a '76ish Chevy Luv, interior dash and all!

I think that would be sic!  The V8 conversion in S-10s has been done over and over.  The main problem is they handle like hell.  The Ecotec is a rock solid engine that I think has, so far, been underused in the custom world.  I'd love to see this conversion.  Do it!

will it work on a 97 sonoma? I want to get sum power because my truck is gonna look like a race truck. I haven't finished the body yet if there is any tips you have for a place to find good parts. Oh and I don't have a lot of money either.
