    Do not buy it. As soon as you get it... you will have to drop another 1k for a new engine. God knows how bad that tranny has been beaten up too. You can not run a 3.1" pulley on a relatively stock engine. Thats like holding a stick of dynamite in your hand instead of a ladyfinger. Regardless of what that dipshiz says, he is not right. Throwing a blower on a high compression engine is not the same as putting a blower on a low compression engine. There is more work to do. Plus.... if it is a GenV blower, headers+colder plugs+few other things just to be able to run it on a high compression engine.

    And smile it's Blacktooth Grin!

    If this motor is still being built then tell him you want a stock pulley on it. If he already has been running the 3.1 pulley, I wouldn't buy it.

    I have quite a bit of money into my car and I still can barley run a 3.0-3.1. There is no way that car in stock form will run a 3.1 without blowing the motor PLUS not making any power because its knocking so bad.

    i miss my S-10's, i don't really know why. i'm not a truck guy. probably because the first one was my first car, and the split window was sweet. had some good times too, doing burnouts next to my friend in another S-10. it was nice not worrying about dents or scratches or anything. the second one had a 350, it's pretty obvious why i missed that one
