here's some specs for anyone interested.....
6.0 LQ4- cammed, headers, Texas Speed heads (225 as-cast). should be in the 450hp+ range (dyno'd 362 with 35s on a dynojet)
th350- deeper first gear swapped
atlas 3.8
D60/14- 5.38s, lockright/spool. 14 bolt has 1541h Yukon shafts and D60 is 10 factory 35 spline with 300m joints. drive flanges, reid knuckles
42" SXIIs on H1s with rock rings
winters shifter
fox 2.5 co's
corbeau seats with 5 pts
psc full hydro
I'm sure there's more, but that's most of the important stuff.
----------
little backstory for anyone who cares....
bought my s10 zr2 brand new in 2000. slowly built it (one of my best friends did all the work) into a very capable rock crawler. all the above parts were on the s10 and are now going into this build.
had a little mishap while wheelin a month ago (fathers day of all days
) and took a violent tumble downhill. it was an end over end twice and barrel roll once. truck was pretty well trashed and at that point it didn't make sense to buy another s10 cab and transfer everything over.
did a ton of research and ended up asking PJ to do a turn key build for me using all the parts I could send him and whatever else we needed. he was super easy to talk to and given his reputation and how his work speaks for itself, it was a no-brainer to ask for his help.
should be interesting to see how he does the front end for me since I asked that he keep a strong bowtie influence since I've been wheelin the s10 for about 14 years now.
so here we are
PJ seems like a great guy and very easy to work with. we have some cool ideas for this so we'll see how it turns out.
