I'm in the market of looking for another car and I have always liked the s-10s. However, I entend to have this car as a nice looking daily drivable surpriser...by that I mean in the same way in which I had my eclipse, lack of body kit, decent rims for traction, almost all the bolt-ons you could think of and a fully functional exhaust that just asked to be picked on...Now for a non-turbo car I figure it was fast without going into the actual engine itself, ran 14.8s @ 96mph w 143whp and 137 ftlb torque. Something of this nature is what I'd like to do with an s-10. So my obvious engine becomes the V6, cause I don't really have the money to turbo anything that's not factory turboed and I don't have the money to by a syclone...so, I've recently been looking and was curious as to which V6 would have the most go, a '95 s10 or a '01 s10. I know the newer one weighs more, but caranddriver rates it at 190hp. I can't seem to find anything that goes back enough to find the hp on the 95 or the gear ratios for either. That way I can get power/weight ratios and final drive gears and make an educated guess...what I wanna do with the truck is this: dark color truck-> 3"3" drop with clear grill, dark tint, true dual exhaust dumps after rear axle, then mod the engine with bolt-ons hoping to achieve mid to low 15s if not high 14s. if it's not a dark truck then just the drop an engine bolt-ons. Problem is I don't know much about these engines, been around DSMs all my life. So I don't know what's possible with these trucks, but they are small and light, that's why I like them. Any opinions or referrals would be great.
