Need a S10 guinea pig for turbo headers

[10secgoal]

Know the measurements needed to clear the shaft. But need to make sure the tubes I have clear the booster and MC. Anyone got one ?

im in Los Angeles if u want to drive over here ur welcome to try it on my sbc s10 blazer

edit: i would go to u but i have no tags right now for it

[jameskirk1]

As you start this project bear in mind that there are a few different sized brake boosters used on these trucks, as well as a few different V8 swap kits out there - and they don't all put the engine in the same location.

Alright cool. As long as I can get it to fit with something for someone to base it's fitment on. I need something to start with.

[CHEVYTOYR1]

well let me know if u want to swing by

[10secgoal]

Fuuuuck that. lol Thanx for the offer.I will if I have to, but I HATE driving. I may be driving to Corona in a week or two. may be something I could look into.
If I can get a guy that want sot buy a set that would be great. If it doesn't fit, I'll pay for the shipping both ways and return the money.

[CHEVYTOYR1]

I can take some pictures of mine if you want. I had them built based on your standard style of headers   . Mine will NOT clear a vacuum booster though, but I did find out that the same master cylinder works just great in a manual setup. At least it does when you swap to Wilwood 4 pistons on all 4 corners .

Let me know the angles you need and I'll snap some pics with a tape measure if it'll help. I've gotta move the truck to the back yard soon as this hot mess of winter storms clears out and I get some dry soil to drive on. 4" wide front tires + 60/40 front heavy + MT drag radials + sloppy soil = LOL by neighbors as I'm stuck on level ground in my yard...  

Maybe some of these will help til you give me something specific.

Kinda can see the relationship between the header and master cylinder.

these actually belong to a member here with a V8 twin turbo in an AWD typhoon.

[10secgoal]

OK, mine look like they'll fit with a modified tube for the steering shaft. Thanks for that sickpuppy.If anyone knows of a person that wants to try these out, lemme know or direct them here would ya ?

[Mattsv8_03]

ill try them on my s10. do you have a crossover pipe yet?

[10secgoal]

Not sure if I'm going to make one or not. But don't have one yet, no. Want me to PM you when I get ready to do it ? Shouldn't be too much longer.

[Mattsv8_03]

yea we can try them on my s10 or the s10 blazer. both are v8s i would do twins in the blazer i can get some 70s prety cheap.

[10secgoal]

K, I've got a few more to finish up on the GP them I'll send you a PM.

[Mattsv8_03]

we can use the blazer or s10. depending on if your gearing toward a twin turbo setup or big single. or mid size single
here are pics of both















and the blazer it would be my old nos motor with new pistons in it for boost. 8.5:1 compression and either twin 70s or a 78mm

[10secgoal]

Ready when you are. Sending you a PM

[Mattsv8_03]

 pm sent back. im going to put it on both trucks. the s10 has manual brakes, the blazer has a std 9" booster dual dia.
If you do make these i will want a set for the blazer id put twin 70s on it in a heart beat.

[10secgoal]

OK. I'll throw them in the jig tonight and tack this stuff in place with the modded tube for steering. 

[Sandman]

I'm in.  Can't wait to see the finished products.

[Mattsv8_03]

me either this has been long overdue. id imagine i could get about 10 sets sold right away between the s10 boards. and local people i know.
Id love to see a universal turbo header for 82-92 fbods too. but thats up to him. im shure he is prety busy

[10secgoal]

I sent all the headers out for shipment including yours. They called me right before they closed to let me know they are ready lol  So you should have an active tracking number tomorrow some time. I will PM them out when I get them.

From what I have seen the F-body is pretty damn close to an S10 yeah ? Tight steering shaft is also the key in those right ?

Any F-body's looking in here ?
