Well I had too much money into the S10 plus it was almost paid for. So I got rid of my 96 eclipse gs for the balt. Its actually not an xtreme just has xtreme side skirts. Thanks.

The hood is nice and it actually helps cool the engine down a little, estimate a about 5-7 degrees while driving, according to the coolant temp. I also have the injen intake and ingals engine dampener.

I noticed the sideskirts, thats what reminded me of the Xtreme, hehe. What year is it. Theres a guy here with a 94 with a 02 Front end, looks very sharp and clean plus a lot of bumping probably just like you, lo.l.

Its a 97, it is my very first ride so I will never get rid of it and it only has 70,000 miles on it. Once the engines goes if it does, in goes a 350 ha ha. It bumps pretty good but I dont crank it up too much. When I want to get someones attention I just hit switches, its funny watchin old people trying to figure out whats goin on.

x10, Both look real good. Good to see another big GM fan

Its real hard to choice, do I mod my SUV or mod my Balt. I'm thinking the balt would be best to mod but then its easy to lose warnity. If I mod the SUV it would be badass but its a rare truck and keeping it stock is a good idea too.

S-10s with 350s are awesome. Stick a Typhoon or Cyclone motor in that! Or better yet, turbo 350

You can actually drop a 350 in there without too many issues. Me and my dad dropped one in his 85 Blazer, light duty. A real blast to drive with that kind of engine in a small truck.

I have always wanted to drop a 350 in there but I would have had to beef the suspension up anyway and do some other things so I ended up doing bags and shaved door handles and then I got into audio setups. That is probly the third or fourth time I have done something different with the subwoofers and amps.LOL finally got it right with that setup.

Thanks a lot. It took some time to get it all fitting together but came out quite well. Hope I dont have to take it out any time in the near future, that would be bad,lol. I didnt get any pics of the back end of the truck in there but from the cab back is all gloss black, maybe I will get some pics of that tomorrow.

Yeah I had mine lowered 5 inches all around for about 2 years, so I know how rough they ride like that. I did all of the work myself, the frame is c-notched, and the bridge for the airbags was smoothed and painted. it took about 2-3 months to get it done, but I was also working a lot and did all the work by myself.
