1987 Chevrolet S10 (350 ci Chevrolet V8)

We bought this truck approx 10 years ago in 2003. It still had the original 4 cylinder and transmission. We drove it daily for approx 1 year, then the 4 cylinder went out on it. We then decided to build from scratch the motor, trans, and rear end.

We built a 350 cubic inch, .030 over, Hyperutectic pistons (flat tops), fresh bore, new cam bearings and freeze plugs, fresh crankshaft, resized connecting rods, new rings, rod bearings, and main bearings, new high volume oil pump, double row Cloyes timing chain, Comp cam, (Part No. 12-677-4) (.501 intake, .510 exhaust, 236/242 @ .050) matching Comp valve springs, retainers, locks, valve seals, Crane full fulcrum roller rockers, new pushrods, new matching Comp lifters. Heads are new World Products Sportsman II (202/160 Manley stainless valves). Edelbrock Torker II intake, Holley 650 double pumper. New bowtie valve covers, green breathers and filter. Taylor wires. And much more.

The engine dyno numbers are: 455 HP @ 6500 RPM, 435 FT LBS of torque @ 5000 RPM.

Transmission is a fresh Turbo 350. GER 3000 stall converter (GER's best). Trans has B&M shift kit, and all high performance clutches, plates, drums, springs, band.

This engine and trans combination has approx 1000 miles on it, just enough to make sure everything works perfect.

New special S-10 Be-Cool radiator. New water pump, new Hitachi mini high torque starter, high amperage alternator. Full length Hedman headers. 2 1/2 inch exhaust with Super Turbo mufflers.

Rear end is a 7.5 posi unit out of a 1997 Trans Am, in perfect working order. .373 gears

Interior is all original, and in what we would consider near mint condition. Nice door panels, etc. Nice stereo system with CD player, 1200 watt 2 channel amp, and 2 10'' subs in truck boxes. Nice door and dash speakers, with tweeters on the doors.

Body is in excellent condition in our opinion, for it's age. No exterior rust that we can see. It has a few small dings here and there, and some bug chips in the front bumper, and a few on the hood. But other than that it's excellent, shines nicely, the only rust we could find were a couple of very small spots in the bed, only 2 and they are at the very back. This truck had already been repainted and is in the same condition it was in since we bought it. We have not driven it in the rain or in the snow, and has been stored inside when not being used for 10 years.

Wheels are about the same age, tires are nearly new. They are in excellent condition, the truck drives beautifully, brakes work perfect, starts up every time. We left all the A/C pieces intact so if you wanted to put the A/C on it you could.

We consider this to be a very dependable vehicle. It can be used for regular street driving, or drag racing. It will work perfectly for either one.

This truck is old enough to qualify as a classic, so it could be licensed as a classic truck (in Missouri).

If you have any questions about this truck, do NOT email. Please give us a call at 816-464-2827 and we will be happy to answer any questions you might have.

We are a professional restoration shop that's been in business for 35 years, and we did all the work in-house for ourselves, so it is all done correctly.

Callaway debuts its new C7 Stingray at National Corvette Museum

Fri, 02 May 2014

Callaway showed off its first tuned version of the 2014 Corvette Stingray at the National Corvette Museum last week, giving the rampant enthusiasts of America's sports car a look at the roughly 620-horsepower, supercharged rocket.
Unlike the Corvette SC610 we showed you back in January, this Stingray packs a fair bit more oomph. Horsepower is only up ten ponies, but torque has jumped from 556 pound-feet to "at least" 600 pound-feet. Neither horsepower nor torque is official quite yet, although Callaway is expecting to know just what its creation can do once testing and validation is completed later this month.
The 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 now boasts a new, three-element intercooler, which Callaway claims only allowed the inlet air temperature to increase by ten degrees Fahrenheit during dyno runs. Previous designs saw a 35-degree-Fahrenheit jump. The exhaust system has also been fettled with, and now is even less restrictive.

Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why

Sun, 27 Jan 2013

Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.
