V8 powered S-10's
 

Why is it hard to find a later model S-10 with a V8? Early ones are a dime a dozen...

I would like to find a later model with an LS motor in it. Anyone have one like that?

I'm not sure but I would bet it has something to do with the computers and electric dash gauges. I have a 92 that's already done but that's a early model. I have thought about selling it but then I drive it and change my mind.

I did a '93 S-10 with a 5.3L but have since sold it for pennies on the dollar.

Searching craigslist today in MN, I found a couple for you (see below). There was a nice LS2 S10 for sale last week but its no longer listed.

That 99 is really nice. That's what I was looking for. Thanks!!

I had a 99' with a 355 in it . This body style looks great and the bed openings will take a 29.5 slick if not 30"

I like the Pro Stock drag trucks this body style. There was a guy that worked at my local parts store with a black one with ext cab, Pro Star wheels.. It looked sweet!

Ive got a 2000 the 4 is about to die! I want to v8 it. A friend and I did a 88 to a v8 years ago. I don't know where to even start at on one this new though.

Looks like you have a good candidate to V8. Im sure there are some build threads to look at here.
