the GenIII motor was orignally designed for the cars, all the technology came from those platforms...Thus why the motor is labeled a car motor no matter what platform its inQuote:

interesting battle of comparison there
A s10 is still lighter than a full size regardless the argument lol.if I put my setup in a mini i would have a single digit truck as well but I rather try and get there in my heavy full size show truck :)
Plus the S10 chassis just plain works. But you guys sound like a bunch of whimpering Lightning owners.
are you aware there are fullsize trucks that are lighter then some s10s that are racing? what makes it any different?Quote:
