1982 Chevrolet S-10 with fresh 383 stroker
1982 Chevrolet S-10
Up for sale is my 1982 Chevy S-10 longbed pickup. The 383 cubic inch 425-horsepower stroker engine has less than 1000mi. following complete rebuild which was done at a local shop. The engine is still under warranty . The paint job is good/fair and is probably 8-10 years old I bought the truck in 2009 on ebay and there are some unknowns like the origin of the .373 positraction rear and the TH 350 transmission. Both have been solid with no issues but again I am unsure of their origin. The Good:· Eagle 400 forged crank
· Eagle forged rods
· 1977 seasoned block bored .060 over by local NAPA machine shop. Line-bored and balanced with Sealed Power skirted pistons.
· Patriot aluminum heads with 185 cc intake ports-from previous build
· 11.1:1 compression ratio
· ARP head bolts
· Holley 670 Street Avenger carb
· Edelbrock Victor Jr. Single-plane intake
· Comp Cams .494 lift camshaft
· High-torque mini starter
· New custom-built aluminum 1-piece driveshaft
· Hughes 2700 stall converter
· MSD 6AL2 ignition with rev limiter
· Milodon 8-qt oil pan with Melling high-volume oil pump
· Aluminum 4-core radiator with dual electric fans
· New wheels and tires-15x8 front 15x10 rear
· B & M ratchet shifter
· Hedman ceramic-coated shorty headers
· 3” custom stainless steel exhaust system with Flowmaster mufflers. Manual exhaust dumps.
· 10-gallon stainless steel fuel cell
· New Mallory electric fuel pump
· New Accel 8.5 mm plug wires
If you feel so inclined you could put a blower or nitrous on it and the internals would certainly stand up to the pressure.
The Not-So-Good· This is a 32 year-old truck with no power steering and no AC so please don’t expect to hop in and drive 2-300 miles home in comfort. It drives and rides like a 32 year-old truck with a high-performance motor in it.
· There is some interference from the ignition into the stereo system while running (which has a 100-watt amp subwoofer and 4 speakers-nothing outrageous but you can plug in your smartphone and listen to Pandora or itunes). I have not had time to address this issue.
· Driver's side window will jump off the track and dive to the bottom of the door if not coaxed gently while cranking down.
· Interior is fair. The doors were painted and the paint is peeling. The dash has a crack on the passenger’s side. The driver’s side door seal is pretty well shot but does not leak as long as the door is completely closed
Additional parts Include:I also have a tonneau cover and a bedliner (I will have bed liner reinstalled if you wish. It was taken out when fuel cell was installed.
I have attempted to be as fair as possible in describing the truck. It is sold as is with no warranty except by the shop for the engine. This of course will be a benefit only to a local buyer. The truck sounds and runs great and draws many appreciative looks and comments. I am selling with a very low reserve as it is time to move on to other projects around the house.
