My Truck
As I said my truck is an 2000 S-10 Xtreme. It is loaded with every option except the silding rear glass and engine coolant heater. It has the 4.3L Vortec V6 rated by GM at 180 hp and 245 ft/lbs. of torque. It also has the third door, bucket seats, cd player, power windows and locks and all that other stuff also. It is an automatic, which I regret sometimes, but it does have the 3.42:1 rear end.

My other baby!
As you probably gussed, this is the part about my fullsize. Its a '78 GMC Serria 15. It is equipped with a .040" over 350, that sports a 222 degree cam (same from the 350 horse 327 in 69 camaros), long tube headers, custom bent 2 chamber flowmaster exhaust with 3" chrome tips, an edelbrock performer alumium intake, 600 cfm quadrajet and K&N filter. It has been lowered 2.5" up front with spindles and 3" at the business end with a shackle and hanger kit. As advice to anyone lowering their truck with shackles, plan ahead to spend a whole day (in my case 19.5 hrs start to finish). The front end was a piece of cake, drilling the rivits out of the factory shackles at 3:00 am is not fun. Replacing the shackles was the most time consuming part. I beleive that these types of kits provide the best ride (except for air bags, but no one I know has any) and you dont have to worry about suspension travel because the factory springs were kept. The wheels are knock off Weld racing five stars, 15x8 with 255/60 up front and 15x10 with 275/60 smokin in the rear. It also has tinted windows 10% limo (way past legal here in SC, backyard job!) and is home (for now) to the aformentioned stero system. Here lately she has been parked more often, due to rising gas prices and lack of air conditioning.
