What do you do when you have a rust-free S10 with a blown engine? You put a junkyard LS 4.8L in it of course. Muletown Speed does just that in part 1 of this budget build. Part 2 will feature on-road antics, dyno-tuning, tire smoke, and more.
The cam specs are actually: 228/230 Dur@.050 and .585 lift on 112 LSA - JEGs part number 200582.

Man your awesome. You did that whole truck build by yourself. I give you a lot of credit man. I build cars too and I know how hard it can get when you do t have a friend for some extra hands.

Trick is to weld a nut to the broken bolt and i didn't cut my crossmember for my 5.3 swap. Can't wait to get mine up and running....love the video

@vflrockytop 6 лет назад

I'm not saying gm failed with the s10. I come from the s10 years. They sold what seems like a trillion of them. Where they failed in the 90s is that they didn't compete with the Dakota with the v8 engines. If s10s would have had an ss model with the year appropriate Lt/Ls engines they would have been a major success.

@jasonpowell4847 6 лет назад

Some people don't know but the Colorado was available with a 5.3 from the factory. I think 2010 and 11.

@jeffanderson7256 6 лет назад

So true man but I guess they didn’t want to, it’s unbelievable though, in the high trim s10s v8 should be there (xtreme/zr2/zq8)

@vflrockytop 6 лет назад

Also the grand Cherokee and the explorer were the blazers competitors and both the jeep and the explorer were available with a v8. It's really disappointing that gm didn't do the same.

@josephatnip2398 5 лет назад

I tell you what the little six cylinders and four cylinders weren't bad for what these trucks were really intended I owned a 4-cylinder as my personal vehicle back in the 90s when I was riding High School my 1995 Chevy S10 was my first brand new vehicle I ever bought but I had a service vehicle later on that was an S10 has an alarm technician with the 6 cylinder in it and that thing it would go pretty good it wasn't a race car or nothing it was just a work truck but it was a good little work truck

Absolutely superb video. Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but, if you have the welder out, and are welding anyway, weld a 9/16 (or whatever size) nut onto your booger. Easier than a channel lock.

Gotcha. When I run into that, I keep bumping the power up on my welder to get better penetration. Again, great video. This is what RU-vid is for.

@dave1135 6 лет назад

I think the hole in the pan was done to comply with whatever state you live in EPA regs. Most salvage yards can't have any fluids in the cars, so they drain the oil, radiator...and since there's no drain plug on a transmission, hammer a hole in it... in Illinois, salvage yards can sell used tires, used rims, but can't sell mounted tires...🤔

@lalodaza6120 4 года назад

Hey buddy nice build, what size and length oil cooler lines did you use boss?

ebay has adapters from any injector to any injector i use them all the time never have to cut wires have been running for years. they plug on injector and your harness plugs into them

@MuletownSpeedandDyno Год назад

Yup I love them and use them a lot. When I did this swap I didn't have a set of adapters but I did have all 8 plugs off of another harness so expediency for the win.

@Smokey-88 5 лет назад

Had to stop at about 28:50 oh my... Pro tip...weld a nut to the broken bolt, the Hemi trucks are notorious for the manifold bolts to snap, heat fluctuation. Driver rear pass. front on the ls, they all do it.

@JohnnyRebKy 4 года назад

I have a 1988 Red S10 my dad bought brand spanking new in 88. Was pampered its whole life. I had it repainted a few years ago and it looks like a brand new truck. No rust, no dents, no anything. I had the iron duke 2.5 rebuilt but im wanting a v8 now. The only problem is the truck is so nice and original that I dont wanna chop it all up for a v8. Im told the original 5 speed stick cant handle a v8, nor can the original rear end. Is that true??? I just want a stock v8....no race engines or anything.

@ls4.8frank Год назад

Guys and gals DO NOT use the 4L80E in your swap, especially if you are not boosting it or running nitrous. It will be a total dog unless you plan on running a stall converter and a 4.10+ rear gear, especially not behind a 4.8L with a cam and springs.

@bigstinky7671 4 года назад

Thanks for showing us It's coming out badass quick question will a 5.3 fit in there?

@killerdoxen 4 года назад

You can even throw in an LSX that gets you upwards of 454ci. Just a bunch more money. LS blocks are dimensionally similar externally. I’ve got an ‘03 extended cab that I have some big plans for, including an LS3(6.2L) and a built 4L60E trans. Would love to get the 6L80 in, but too large for the S10 transmission tunnel and they seem to suffer from the reliability lottery. Some handle good power without failure, but some can’t even handle stock power levels without failing.

@ls4.8frank Год назад

A 4.8L and 5.3L are the exact same block just different strokes.

@chevyman2232 6 лет назад

I still don't see the need to cut out the crossmember. mine fits just fine. second thing should have pressed on the 4 cyl p/s pump pulley on. or do what I did, and clearenced the head of the bolt.

@Handyman016 6 лет назад

Question about the stock shift cable on the 4l80. I’ve got the same setup and I’m finding the gears don’t line up correctly. Did you have to do anything differently?

@rpturbo 6 лет назад

You should be able to pop open the white lock on the cable at the bottom, and adjust length as needed to make it correct.

@zachkillgore2011 4 года назад

@Muletown Speed and Dyno was the radiator big enough to keep the engine cool? also what fans did you use and did you have to trim the rad support to make it fit?

@MuletownSpeedandDyno 4 года назад

The v6 rad cooled it just fine. The fan was a leftover spal fan from a work project that interfaced with the harness and was controlled by the pcm. Didn't do any trimming on the core support since it was a factory radiator, but when I build another s10 ill trim enough to set the radiator further forward to get a little extra clearance between the fan and engine.

@austinknowlton1783 4 года назад

Hey bud, enjoy your videos. I have a 98 ext cab 2.2 5 speed I am hoping to exchange for an ls this summer. Gonna try to go as low buck as possible. One question; you re-used all the stock lifters except the one you had to replace? I don't have much experience with roller cams but I know on flat tappet cams you usually replace the lifters with the cam. Also wanted to give you a helpful hint; next time you have a broken stud instead of welding a "booger" on it and struggling with channel locks get yourself a nut that has about the same size hole as the stud diameter, place it on the end of the stud and fill the hole with weld. Then you can remove it with a socket or a wrench. Much less effort and frustration. Thanks for the videos, and any insight you can provide.

@MuletownSpeedandDyno 4 года назад

Hey Austin. Thanks for watching. I did just replace the one bad lifter. The nice thing about roller cams is you don't have to keep track of lifters vs cam lobes. so when one goes bad, you don't have to replace all of them. If it were a customer engine id replace all of them but you dont have to.

@austinknowlton1783 4 года назад

Thanks for getting back to me, and thanks for the info. My powertrain is a 4.8 LR4 and a 4L60E from a 2000 silverado. I plan on replacing the cam with the same "sloppy" Elgin cam that you used. Was wondering if I should replace the lifters but now I think if they look ok my money would be better spent on replacing the valve springs like you did. Also have an 8.5 rear with 3.42 gears and an Eaton locker out of another s10. Think it might be a better choice than the stock 4.10 open diff that came in the truck. Wouldn't mind having your opinion on that, along with any other insight you may have.
