You need to have the super charger cut, and have a machinist make a custom "U" onto it.

No s10's came with the 3800, just the 60° 2.8l and the 90° 4.3l
Not sure if you're looking to do an intake swap or a complete engine swap, but you can use older BOP 60* trans with the 3800

None but just because something is different or one off doesn't mean its worth while. There are reasons why things haven't been done, like how many 4 cylinder fbodies with twin turbos do you?Originally posted by Yoshi94Mines about an inch bigger than Kyles.

It would be neat, but make less power and have similar gas mileage as a 350. If you know someone who has decent fabrication abilities it would not be too bad. Just get a GTP dropout, pcm, wiring harness and make it happen.sigpic
