    Did GM ever make this truck?

    I wanted to provide a quick update to everyone. Further research indicates that this truck was 100% available in 1993-1995 (L05, MM5, YF5, 5600 GVWR), but I have not been able to track down an actual example of even an Automatic truck, UNTIL MAYBE TODAY. There is a truck on FBMP in CA that...

    Did GM ever make this truck?

    I am running through it again (I have used this a a couple times), but I still think this is a unicorn truck. Anything helps the search.

    Did GM ever make this truck?

    Thank you for going to the yards for me. This sticker gives me hope that I might yet find the unicorn truck. The search contuinues. As a side note, are there any databases on the internet that will provide the RPOs for a given VIN? I know Mopar/Dodge/Jeep/Chrysler/Stellanis has a lookup, but I...

    Did GM ever make this truck?

    First of all, THANK YOU for taking at such a deep dive. I don't even know where you dug all this stuff up at, but it is the sort of data that I have been unable to find and it tells a hell of a story. Second, I work in the Medium/Heavy/Severe Duty truck/tractor sector in CA and we are going...

    Did GM ever make this truck?

    Yes, that is precisely what I need. I can find an LO5 and we have a T56 already, so we can build the actual package and harness (pretty sure the 2.8 TBI is nearly identical in the sensor and ignition wiring harnesses, save for wire length and I hthink they use the same computer with a 5.7 manual...

    Did GM ever make this truck?

    1) there were no V8 S10 series trucks available for sale in Calif. So no comparable example. - This is 100% correct. 2) there were S10, S15 , S series blazer, Typhoon, Cyclone with turbocharged V6. - This is 100% correct, but they were only offered through 1991-1993 , but we need 1993 or...

    Did GM ever make this truck?

    Agreed, but I had a ref tell me he would be checking casting numbers on the block, which seems extreme, but this is California we are talking about.

    Did GM ever make this truck?

    There were no factory v8 S10 trucks, ever, to the best of my understanding. 454cid is correct. I am looking for a 1993-95 California emissions 5.7 / manual trans in a light duty C1500. There seems to be consensus that GM made such trucks, but I need to get an image of an Emissions tag to find...

    Did GM ever make this truck?

    The S10 in question is a 2.8 TBI / 5 speed truck (no electronic transmission control). The PCM is located under the dash, although I have not pulled it yet to check for OEM Numbers. I would assume this S10 truck uses the older PCM, as it is not a CPI or Auto.

    Did GM ever make this truck?

    Hi all, I am attempting a LO5 5.7 / 5 speed swap into an S10 in The Peoples Democratic Republic of Kalifornia. Obviously, this means that there is no logic or actual attention paid to reducing emissions, only that vehicle and engine classifications and emissions match. I have searched on...

    Hi, everybody! I don't have a OBS Chevy!

    Hi, everyone! My name is Don and I do not have an OBS Chevy/GMC! What I do have is a buddy that has a 1993 S10 he wantes to swap a 5.7 TBI LO5 and 5 speed into in California (GASP), which means he needs to be smog legal. What I am looking for is an example of a California emissions 5.7 5 speed...
