    Hey there, fantastic build thread you've made, have been through it a couple of times. Have read lots and gone through stickies over on v8s10.org. But maybe you can help as i am in the planning stages. will not spend a dime til i have a solid game plan, even if it means finding another s10 as my starting point. I have an 87 2.5 4 speed manual. I want some power(v8) and best MPG i can get. Am I understanding correctly when i read people dropping v8 in the 4.3 without changing trany? or driveshaft or rearend? Would the lt1 making no more than 300HP fit in this category of straight drop without tranny driveshaft or rear mod? I know there is more to it than straight drop, cooling, wiring, exhaust, etc.. but I'm looking for a budget drop in and seeing if i can avoid trany driveshaft and rear mods to begin with? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Lots of info out there, but hard to sift to get real world answers for a good game plan. thanks, and again, great build! Pete.
