Buddy of mine at has an XTreme S-10 and he's got a full drivetrain from a late 4th gen camaro (LS1, T56) that he's planning on dropping in there.

Thanks for all the compliments. I do want wider wheels at least in the rear. Hopefully it wont be too hard to drop the v8 in. My dad has his conversion kit already so well see. Any suggestions on colors? Im torn between staying with the black but ive always to do a burnt orange lol
