Finally!

[Kenny]

Finally, some intellectual stimulation! I've been looking around on different forums for a couple of weeks for some inspiration on my new project, having a first gen S-10 there is no shortage of sites to visit. While there is much info on how to mount a monster tach with extra shift lights on the windshield, why Alteezas leak, and how much "noss" could I use without causing problems with underbody neons.......Informative for sure, but I found it to be lacking. My fever for street legal road rockets has led me back to college for my engineering degree with specialization in motorsport chassis fabrication and setup technology, Bilstein Motorsport shock absorber technology school, fully trained for custom setup of Penske and Ohlins......Blah,blah,blah, I thought I was just some sort of freak. Then I happened across this website....WOO-HA! more freaks!..I'm so happy,I could just giggle!

Ok, so here's the project; 93 S-10,LS-1,4L60,8.5 10 bolt posi,Hyperco composite leafs and coils w/adjustable buckets,relocated tubular a-arms,fully braced chassis... You know just basic stuff for this site. I currently run Edelbrock IAS, which are quite possibly the worst performance shock I have ever used! I will be revalving them, because I'd like to make use of the Ricor valve. I have a fair amount of experience with dirt track, lmsc, and road course cars. Truck arms, 3-links,torque arm and leaf spring setups are pretty routine for me. Pretty boring stuff I guess...

Anyhow, I wanted to say hello, and I'm glad you guys are here!!

Ok, evidently I don't have the Computer skills of a 3 yr old. I'm not able to post my pics, and from this end, it looks like my affliction runs deep! So until I can figure out what my malfunction is, I will be sending out Crayola renditions of my truck, and I may try drawing some pics of my family!

You can add the pics by clicking "Manage Attachments" from the reply screen (if you're not seeing that option, click "Go Advanced" to get there.

Then you'll just need to navigate to your saved local copies of the pics. If you have any trouble, please feel free to PM me.

Oh, and welcome to the site!

[Kenny]

Okay, maybe this will do it.
