as stupid as this is i cant help but wonder, why ditch the v8 for a 6? especially in a 4x4.

 

Because the V6 in it now, is the V6 that came with the chassis. It is just another Camaro body dropped on to the S-series truck chassis & drivetrain.

 

but with the time and fabrication im assuming is involved with doin this you think they could swap a motor fairly easily. granted, i have no idea on the previous condition of the car so it may not have even had a running motor

 

There's a difference between all wheel drive and 4x4. Anyone can drop a third gen body onto a 4x4 chassis. It's a lot harder to make a proper all wheel drive and keep the same ride height.

Do a google search. You'll find lots of cars dropped onto 4x4 chassis.

 

Well if this SH*T is usually done with the S-series trucks. Then couldn't you take a Syclone (S-10 Chassis) with turbo 4.3, AWD, and drop a F-body onto it????

 

It's been discussed fully including trying to use an AWD Astro van. Check in the fabrication forum.

 

Thats nice to know, I feel better knowing that MY crazy idea was thought of by others before me, and that I'm NOT so crazy after all.........
