Re: s15 v8 engine swap
I have a V-8 in my S-10, 2 wheel drive though.
I'd suggest you visit www.jagsthatrun.com they have a book and parts out the wazoo for doing your type conversion. Have Fun! You'll love driving a V-8 S series!

Check out www.currentperformance.com for the wiring. They also sell mounts.
