S-15 / S-10 Engine swap question
I have a 1988 GMC S-15 pickup 4cyl, 5 speed. pretty low miles, but the
passenger side is smashed in. Aside from the collision damage on that side the truck runs great and I hate to get rid of it but it can't be driven like it is. I just put in brakes, clutch, battery, water pump and some other stuff right before it got smashed. I was thinking about trying to find a similar truck that needs a motor or transmission and put my good driveline parts in it and get back on the road. Does anyone know what range of model years will work for what I want to do? S-10 chevy or S-15 GMC will work. S-10 blazer would probably work too but not enough power with a 4cyl. I could just sell it for parts but I would probably get next to nothing for it Any other thoughts? Located in San Diego CA THANKS |
