Today's video is one I've been looking forward to for a long time! I'll be dressing up the 350 small block V8 and getting it reinstalled in the S10. Of course, I'll be going over all the ins and outs of installing parts, swap accessories and more. Lots of progress has been made since the last episode and I'm starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. With the engine back in the truck, I'll also double check fitment once again as I fitted some new parts to hopefully make life (and fitment) a bit better. It was a ton of work, but this truck will be worth it. Seeing the engine in the bay all dressed up was incredibly satisfying to say the least! Enjoy the video!

12:05 Thanks for the tip about the coolant in the thread, will come in handy when I need to change the water pump.
Yessir!
I cannot wait to see the S10's engine swap get finished 👏👏👏👏
Looking good as always!
That V8 looks cool and fantastic. I really like it so much.
Very impressive, the engine and brackets look awesome . Doing a great job Kyle. 👍👌😊
Trying my best! Thank you!
Another stellar video Kyle! Thanks!
Fantastic Kyle! ⭐️
6:56 I could smell that stuff from through my phone.
Yeah, it's lovely lol
@@saabkyle04 what does it smell like?
Can’t wait till see the whole truck built great job, thanks for sharing your videos!
Thank you for watching buddy!
I suggest working on a 1990s Miata as a summer car, and a Fiat Abarth as a winter car. My version of this was an Impala smallblock for winter and a Barracuda 318 for summer from 1978 to 1980. From 1980 to 1985, a 650cc Yamaha motorcycle for the warmer 6 months. It helps to have 2 if they are old junkers- to have a spare for major repairs or to find another if 1 goes to a junkyard for parts. Or see the Carsthatlast series on UA-cam for older vehicles that are usually reliable.
Pure class- keep it up and I’ll keep watching 👍
Thank you!
Amazing project. Congratulations champ.
Kyle.. good stuff. Thanks for sharing
Super excited for this.
Awesome video Kyle!
That gold oil pan is such a flex 😁
It's quite pretty for sure! 😁
Yet another great video. I am enjoying following this project.
Thanks for the support!
DAMN that is going to be one hell of a clean S10!
Cool, we had to do the rear end a few years ago too.
Nice work man this is really looking great.
Thanks a lot!
2 most glamorous things in this video:
1. V8
2. Beard
Much appreciated my dude 🤘
Second place is nice... Love these project vids.
Kyle, you need to do a series of restoring a car such as a 1966-1970 Chevy Chevelle or a Dodge Challenger or a Ford Mustang during those same years. That would be great.
We have a '69 Chevelle that I want to start working on once I get this truck and the 240SX on the road.
Lovee these type of vids
it looks great
I never knew a guy on UA-cams voice could make me feel so damn comfortable. You got a radio voice for sure!
I appreciate that!
So impressive !
Good video - thanks Kyle.
Thank you!
Nice high quality production.
Thank you very much!
good job bro👍👍
great video
COOL Dressing Up The V8 & Installing It Back In The Truck! S10 Restomod Ep.9
great job..
Lumberjack Kyle. Haha
Looks good and you do what makes you happy but a body colored firewall always looks better. Black is dark and drab unless the truck was black. You should have rolled the pinch weld at the firewall/floor for more clearance and beat the firewall back for your distributor clearance (but do it so it looks nice). Also I would never step back in time and replace fuel injection with a troublesome, never tuned quite right, hard to start cold, too rich or too lean carburetor for nothing. An LS swap would have been the best of both worlds! Easy to tune, easy to start, easy to change. All around better than a carbed small block anyday of the week. I have built 3 lowered v8 swapped S10's and one convertible s10 way back in the day. Also an S10 Blazer rear diff from maybe a 2000-2005 will have disc brakes and would be a great swap into your truck.
To each his own, but everyone acts like an LS swap is the end-all-be-all. There are pros and cons to each swap out there, it just depends on how experienced you are or how much you're willing to spend. With an LS swap, you're dealing with electronics mostly, wiring and all that fun stuff. With a carburetor, you're dealing with mostly mechanical. When set up right, there's no issue with a carburetor. I said early on in this project that I wanted to simplify it and do things more old school. I'm happy with the direction I took and I wouldn't change any of it. As far as the firewall, obviously if I could have painted the whole truck at once, that would have been nice, but that wasn't possible. If you watched the last video, you would see that I coated the firewall in heat resistant liquid sound deadening. I painted it black because red painted sound deadening would have looked terrible. The added benefit of the product was more benefit to me than trying to make it "match" the truck.
Excellent content and helpful videos. Wich crankshaft pulley you use?
Good job.
Thanks!
Hey there. I know you said you painted components of the windshield washer motor, However I was wondering if you also rebuilt the motor? I have the 71 Caprice that I’m restoring for my husband and I just pulled the wiper motor assembly the other day.
Let's see this thing roast some tires when she's finished 😁😁
Yeaaaa man!
Nice!! Great job... :-)
You going holy efi
Some of the heater/AC redo was to make things fit with the new engine, but was the complete replacement of everything required because they weren't working well, or is that just something that is sort of standard practice because it's 30 years old and is likely not up to par, even if it does work overall? The same with things like wiper hardware?
Absolutely love the progress its definitely coming along my friend. One question and that's why didn't you repaint the firewall red over the coating.
Thank you! I like the black, I think it makes the chrome and orange of the engine pop more. I didn't like the idea of the red textured look, the black looks so much cleaner.
Just want to say awesome build. I am currently doing a v8 swap myself. I had a question on the motor, would you still have the specs on the camshaft? was it stock or after market? Thank you Kyle.
Where did you get the parts to rebuild your ac/heat system and your front drive system
Using the intake rubber gaskets on the front rear of the intake can blow out
Are those like billet spark plug wire holder thingys? :D
They are!
I don't think it needs silicon/RTV all around the gasket. I replaced the factory rubber gasket on my SBC and it didn't have any RTV on it. I didn't put any RTV on the new one (ACDelco) and it's super tight, doesn't leak at all. Fel-Pro is probably even better. Just the gasket do its job.
Different people say different things, as long as you're not making a mess, it won't hurt anything, I'd rather play it safe since it's such a bear to fix leaks when it's in the truck.
@@saabkyle04 You got a point there.
Man Kyle I see you must be married to this truck I seen all of the videos on this truck you threw all kinds of money away restoring this truck.
Are you going to put EFI???
Great series Kyle
How's the new house?
God bless
Thanks man! The brick is almost finished, the electrician is starting soon and the HVAC/plumbing is almost finished. It's coming along! I'll make an update video after more progress is made.
Nice truck, I've done a few v8 s10s and love them. I am curious why you are putting so much time money and effort into it and still used a old flat tappet cam? I always use 88-93 tbi engines so they have the spider previsions drilled and tappet in the block. The amount of time it took to take the engine back apart and make sure all the metal was cleaned out when the last cam went flat i figured out a couple hundred more for roller was well worth it.
I'm excited about this truck for sure, it's going to be fun. I bought the engine already rebuilt from someone I know. It already had the cam kit, pistons and everything ready to go so to rip all that brand new stuff out and have it redone would have been silly. There's so many different ways to go about a build and everyone has their preferences. I'm still learning. With how it's setup, it should be pretty sweet, I'm pumped lol.
What heads are on your motor?
Can you please go in depth more about you using the corvette water pump and pull and why? I've got a 96 Tahoe and I'm in the middle of my 2000 S10 build. Do they flow more? Run cooler?
C.P C. He did it because it is shorter from block deck to end of WP. He needed the room for rad because he mounted it further forward.
@@chrisfinley4816 thanks so much that makes sense. But do you know if it flows more and does the larger puppy slow it down for better cooling? Are the impellars differant in a corvette? I understand the shorter aspect of it totally. I was just wondering is it better giving it is a corvette water pump form a performance aspect?
@@c.pc.5805 If you want better cooling, go to a better radiator. A water pump won't add any better cooling if the radiator isn't capable of cooling the water. Most important to least important: Radiator, Fan, thermostat, water pump.
@@WhoThisGuy515 thanks so much. I've got a 34 inch core setup now. I'm going to fab in brackets for it to fit and bolt it in securely. But I'll be running a set of spall fans in it along with A/C and here in NC you need the extra cooling anyway for the summer it get sticky here for sure. Thanks so much for your help.👍
Hey bud! I'm thankful the others were able to help you out! I really don't know the differences in how the Corvette WP flows vs the "tall" pump. For what it's worth, I got the "Heavy Duty" version of the Corvette WP from O'Reilly. I think the impeller is different, but don't quote me. It wasn't much more so I figured "why not?" lol. I have a late 80s corvette Radiator and dual Spal fans as well. I talked about it more in the core support mod/tucked radiator video I made a little while back.
Those Viggen logos on the tool box. I noticed
They are! Good eye!
Hey Kyle, I know that you don't often give advice on buying Cars but is there a Reliable Manual 4 cylinder car 2012-2020 that I can pick up for $10000 CAD?(Not a base model, I want features)
Civic si or any Toyota is your best bet for reliability and decent quickness. A
What Bryson said, you can't go wrong with a civic si or something from Toyota. I have honestly been out of the look on new cars for a while and I don't keep up with reliability ratings. My brain only holds so much LOLOLOL.
I'm waiting for Kyle to just say "Screw it we are rotary swapping an S10 as our next project" 😂
Noooooo!
Where do you get all of your torque specs from ?
I normally try to purchase an OEM factory service manual online. I like them better than the chiltons/hanes manuals as I feel they go more in depth and are more focused on a specific year/model, which is especially helpful if you're learning.
Thank you!!! @saabkyle04
I have 2 suggestion for this build for the back brakes do a drum to disc brake conversion, and and install LED Bed lights
Sticking with drums for now, there's no need to spend the extra money on that.
@@saabkyle04 Your buddy chrisfix is going to do it on his truck
I'm sure. Maybe I'll do it, but idk if I can justify spending $500+ dollars on that.
First one! Can you make a video about the chevelle? I’m getting one soon
It might be closer to summer before I get to it, but that's the plan.
Hey @saabkyle04 what kind of paint did you use for the firewall? Is that truck bed coating?
Look at my undercoating/firewall cleanup video, it's Spectrum sound deadening from Second Skin, really nice stuff. I painted over it with semi-gloss engine enamel.
@@saabkyle04 it looks great! High quality stuff!
What’s going on with the four door truck? Anything new?
Nothing is happening with it yet. I got overwhelmed with the amount of "projects" I have and decided I need to try and take things one at a time, especially with how custom the crew cab is.
Saabkyle04 I understand buddy
Damn dude...too long between updates...i love this project.
Too long? Man, I'm struggling as it is to get these videos done at this rate. I have a lot going on. Thanks for the support 👍
you are the best when I play cars I play like you. I am a huge fan
Amazing how much you know! Do you ever miss pharmacy?
Thanks! I have a lot to learn still, but I feel I have come a long way! I don't miss it one bit haha. Some aspects were fun, but I'm thankful for the opportunities that ended up presenting themselves.
You should put EFI....
I don't want EFI, I've made that clear in the videos lol. Simple, old school, that's the build.
Carborater is becoming a dinosaur..
Do you not blink? Cool build though, things gonna send tires to hell
in my 1992 GMC jimmy i broke the back window out and i had to bord it up to keep the weather
First
You can NOT use the electric fuel pump with a carburetor! It supplies too much pressure and could blow out fittings. Carburetors need 5-7 psi of fuel pressure but fuel injection uses about 50 psi. Please heed my warning and don't use the electric pump.
You absolutely can use an electric fuel pump, did you not watch the video? If you use an electric fuel pump, you MUST get a fuel pressure regulator that allows you to dial back the pressure appropriate for the carburetor. I have a Holley FPR that I'll be using. It has a return feed too to help cool the in-tank factory FP. Thanks.
@@saabkyle04 Oh ha ha sorry. That would work. I did notice however that you had a flat-tappet cam. The break-in process for that is ABSOLUTELY CRUCIAL to that life of the cam.
Yeah man, that's the truth! Should make for an interesting video LOL. Thanks for watching!
@@saabkyle04 I must have been thinking about MPFI. The TBI fuel pump only puts out 16 psi of pressure but MPFI uses 50 psi. I was saying it would not be advisable to use the stock electric pump with a carb because, 43 psi pushing against a pressure head is not good for the pump. But because your truck had TBI the electric pump only supplies 16 psi so you would only have a 9 psi against the regulator so you don't have to worry.
Rerrrrrrr

why a carb instead of efi? considering what a bitch a carb can be in the winter
The whole point of the build is to make it more old school and keep things "simple". I don't know a lot about wiring and computers so this is simple enough for me to get my feet wet and learn some stuff. There will be other projects, but I've owned many carbed vehicles so I'm used to it.
Saabkyle04 that’s awesome, cool part is there’s simple swap kits so when you’re ready, you could easily do the swap for cheap, save some on fuel and gain some power in the process, loving all this s10/blazer content man it’s been awesome so far
you're not supposed to paint the water seals
Water seals?
Topher Green do you mean the freeze plugs?
@@saabkyle04 I'm sorry if I didn't explain myself (not my mother language), they're called freeze plugs as James Beaman well said. These plugs are there not just for expansion if there's a differential pressure. They actually function as a galvanic anode (like in a boat) as well. It occurs because of parasitic currents that generate inside the water jackets in the engine, periferic moving parts and electrical discharges.
Let's say that they are there to oxidase first and protect the engine in the future.
Like your videos but too much silicone. Too much is just as bad as none.
It's not too much. I didn't show every single little thing I did, but fyi, I cleaned up everything that was excess, but I guess you can only see so much in a video. It's better to be safe than sorry.
