You aint beatin nothin with a V8 with a 2.8. Now I can see beatin the Ranger as a possibility, but even thats a tough call

Re: my s-10

Dude, you are not gonna go that fast in a S-10 with a 2.8. It just aint gonna happen without ALOT of mods. Ive owned 3 Blazers with 2.8's and they struggled to hit 85. I had a 91 Cavalier with the 3.1, bored .030 over, cam, chipped, no cat, a fart cannon, and a CAI And it took a while to get that to 120mph. And that car would blow a s-10 with a 2.8 doors off. Shit, even a 4.3 wouldnt have had a chance.
