need some ideas for my S10 Extreme

right now i haven't really started on putting it together(this kit is DETAILED! you build it up from the actual FRAME).
all i've done is paint the body in a dark green metalic (it has metalic flakes in the paint to give it a sparkle like the newer cars have) for the base paint.

i kinda want to put in a bigger engine like a 350 with tunnel ram but i don't know where to get some thing like that in model form.

Re: need some ideas for my S10 Extreme

if your willing to sacrifice. purchase the newer model amt corvette, slice the engine off the bellhousing, and glue it to your transmission. then you can just put the vette together curbside.

A Corvette engine would be nice. I built my S10 Xtreme box stock, maybe search for "Xtreme".

AMT made tons of variations of the S-10, and even the GMC S-15
