Extended cab S-10's have two piece driveshafts, the regular cabs have one piece units.

Anytime man....

63 & 64 Bowties · 12-16-2009, 04:33 PM

any more progress?
I saw you mention in another thread that you were gonna use a harness from fuel injection specialities. You mind telling how much their harness are? I assume you're getting trans wiring too?
thanks

c10addict · 12-16-2009, 04:58 PM

The engine and tranny harness come together... I have around a grand wrapped up in the harness and reprogramming the computer... I have made a little more progress... Exhaust is run, fuel tank is back in, air tank mounted and lines run, tranny cooler mounted and connected... I just have to get the truck and chassis to the hot rod shop so we can swap the tin... I will post some pics later..

63 & 64 Bowties · 01-08-2010, 02:20 PM

I appreciate the compliments! We have some really cool stuff in the mix right now!! There will be a lot of fresh metal rolling out of here this summer!
