1989 Chevrolet S10 Air Ride V8 350 700r4 Brake & Chassis Upgrades Protouring on 2040-cars
Abingdon, Maryland, United States
|
1989 Chevy S10 with Throttle Body EFI SBC 350, 700R4 trans and locking 10 bolt rear. Truck was built with good parts to provide a stout chassis to be a reliable, drive anywhere vehicle. The front suspension has Ride Tech tubular upper and lower control arms. Firestone 2500lb air bags. All of the tie rods and steering parts are new Moog brand parts. Front sway bar is ZQ8 S-10. Front brakes are 98-03 Blazer new dual piston calipers with drilled and slotted rotors, braided stainless brake hoses, mounted onto Bell Tech 2102 drop spindles with Moog unit bearings. Rear has new parking brake cables, new brake shoes, hardware and drums. The suspension in the rear has Ride Tech air bar set up. The rear frame has not been c-notched yet and has one area of rust repair where the notch will go. The Air supply system has two Viair 480 compressors and an 8 gallon tank where the spare tire belongs and analog controls from the glove box. The Truck stops incredible with better brakes and the HydroBooster from a Chevy Astro van. The steering shaft is a from a Jeep Cherokee and is substantially better with improved feel and response than the GM rag joint shaft. The engine has a Edelbrock 4bbl crab intake and a TBI adapter plate and was intended to be switched to carburetor it uses Hedman headers and is a otherwise stock later model SBC 350. Cooling is through a stock 4.3 radiator with dual Flex-a-lite fans. There's also a new Optima yellow top battery. The transmission is a 700R4 with a shift kit. It is mounted into the frame with a G Force transmission cross member that allows for the true dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers. Everything under the truck is tucked above the frame rails. The wheels are old school Eagle Alloy minitruckin' wheels 17x8 with 40 series tires. Inside is very stock and some of it needs to be redone (dash has two cracks and needs new carpet) it has a new Grant steering wheel and a freshly upholstered Leather/Swede stock bench seat, and headliner. The body has good paint and is BMW Laguna Seca Blue. It is not a ISCA show paint job, but its far, far better than a quick Maaco job. The only custom work to the body is the shaved front bumper bolts, fuel door, and antenna. I've owned the truck for about 4 years and have driven it as far as 300 miles one way to travel to car shows. It averages about 22 mpg on the highway at 70 mph. There is one thing the new owner must do, mount a permanent fuel tank. The stock fuel tank is nested in the bed for right now but it is not a good safe place for it. The inside of the bed and the firewall/inner fenders are not paint color matched. The vehicle is currently in winter storage so the pictures are not 100% up to date. Not shown in the pictures are the door panels, and some other details. I also have Corvette C5 calipers and some other parts that can go with it if the price is high enough. Please email me with any and all questions. |

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
2016 Chevy Colorado Duramax gets 31 mpg highway
Mon, Nov 9 2015The 2016 Chevrolet Colorado Duramax and its similarly diesel-powered GMC Canyon sibling are the most fuel-efficient new trucks on the market in America. The Environmental Protection Agency estimates 31 miles per gallon highway, 22 mpg city, and 25 mpg combined for two-wheel-drive Colorado and Canyon diesels. That's just good enough to take the pickup fuel-economy title from the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel HFE, which carries EPA estimates of 29 mpg highway, 21 mpg city, and 24 mpg combined. Four-wheel-drive models offer slightly lower economy figures of 29/20/23, respectively. Drivers can cover quite some distance, too – the GM twins' 21-gallon tanks mean a maximum range of 651 miles. <p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p> Diesel's reputation may be somewhat tarnished in the US after Volkswagen's emissions scandal, but Chevy wants to assure potential customers that there are no tricks with the Colorado's figures. The pickup's engine features NOx-reducing tech like exhaust gas recirculation, and the EPA and California Air Resources Board recently chose the truck to take the additional step of real-world emissions tests. The 2.8-liter Duramax four-cylinder with 181 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque had no problems with the more stringent evaluation, and "the agency expressed no issues or concerns," according to the company's statement. The diesel Colorado goes on sale this fall, and the Duramax costs $3,730 over a similarly equipped V6 model. We've gone ahead and included dueling press releases from both Chevy and GMC below for your reading pleasure.

The EPA-estimated highway fuel economy for 2016 Colorado four-wheel drive diesel is 29 mpg. The EPA has issued a Certificate of Conformity for the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax diesel. The agency expressed no issues or concerns following its recent extensive testing and evaluation of the emission control system on the Colorado Duramax diesel.
GM won't sell 2014 Chevrolet SS in Canada
Thu, 21 Feb 2013Allow us to be the first to extend our condolences to our friends to the north. General Motors has announced the 2014 Chevrolet SS will not be available in Canada. The Globe and Mail reports the automaker has confirmed the high-performance sedan won't hit Canadian dealers, though GM hasn't offered up any reasoning as to why that is.
Buyers here in the US of A, meanwhile, can look forward to getting their hands on the 415-horspower, rear-wheel drive SS by late summer. Something tells us it won't be long after that before Canadian officials start seeing individually imported 6.2-liter V8 four-doors in their neighborhoods. Fortunately, Canadian buyers will still be able to take home the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. The C7 bowed at the Canadian International Auto Show last week, reportedly drawing sizable crowds and interest.
