that would be interesting to see too. I would think because of the width it would not fit post them if you find them I would think the head would hit the steering column shaft

I saw a very sleeper looking Isuzu PU on Houston Craiglist that had a 400 HO block with Edelbrock heads and Torker II intake ,Electric waterpump , Tall Butler Valve Covers all under a flat hood with smallish 9-10 rear tires..!!! I guess it had a rack and pinion setup? But it looked like it fit great !

well thinking about it more maybe it might work even better or cheaper? the way the exhaust manifolds are compared to a chevy they might tuck better and not hit the steering column? That would be all right I had a couple of those small pick ups over my time with V8's and they sure make the cabin a hot box, but they are light

Pontiac Dude has a friend with an S10 and a Pontiac motor installed. He said that putting the Pontiac in there was easier than a SBC, and the fit was great.
It's just a lot of weight over and ahead of the front wheels. |

pontiac engine does not weigh much different than an all iron SBC, my 82 swb S-10 ran 12.10 with a mild 350 and weighed 2750lbs, My truck was done very nice and had no issues as far as the cabin heat goes, I can't imagine good 400 in it! would have been wayyy faster

What a great way to use a 326 or 350 that no one ever wants.
A truck that light with a little Pontiac motor should get great gas mileage and still have too much power. |

I was about to do a post on this matter... I've got one '84 short bed, short cab, 2wd S10 laying around... They weight very little and are very cheap! I can assure you on the Pontiac being easier to install because of its exhaust ports facing toward the chassie istead of the fender like SBC.
Anyone have pictures?? I was thinking about putting a LT1 383 into it that I have, but I also own a lot of Pontiac stuff.. So.... Pictures folks.. we need pictures! |

Karguy,
I saw that Isuzu that was for sale here in Houston Area. I can't seem to find the photos right now (think they're on the old computer), but if I dig them up I'll post 'em. Quote:
Serge beat me to it... Not an 801 head and definitely NOT 300hp (but getting there), lighter than a V6 or V8 though which makes up some of the difference.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
