4 posts saying do it, yet there are only 3 votes?



Maybe it's because we don't really do the pickup thing over here, but I think you should put the engine in something that deserves it.

I have an S-10 as well, and not that i'm against it but, you would be better off putting a rotary in a mazda based pick-up, B2200 or something along those lines.



The S-10 is a little to heavy (nearly 4500lbs) the existing drive train would be overkill, and the 13B wouldn't offer enough power in a stock configuration.
