Let's just put it this way... If the engine was built before 85, leave it alone. The crank in that and in your current engine are the same as are the small port cylinder heads.

Early bearings are garbage.

S10 cams are garbage.

Later engine with Camaro cam in an S10 is kinda fun, though. Ask me how I know.
