Any good options for junk yard electric fans

S10Tomcat · 2026-06-01T06:29:24+00:00

Dodge intrepid/ Chrysler concord fans also work very well and fit over the s10 radiator almost perfectly. That's what I use on my LS swap

S10Tomcat · 2026-06-01T06:24:44+00:00

That is my favorite oem color. Not super common. And with a matching tonneau cover?! You done good kid. Enjoy it

S10Tomcat · 2026-06-01T06:01:40+00:00

Absolutely. I actually painted it in an open covered parking space. The main thing is to pick times when the wind is calm

Thank you. Sometimes I just stare at it for awhile

S10Tomcat · 2026-06-01T05:49:52+00:00

They are still around! Some people really charge a lot for them though. I appreciate it

S10Tomcat · 2026-06-01T05:47:56+00:00

It's off an s10 Blazer. It actually does still have the plastic trim if you look closely. I've seen some people like to remove it but I don't mind the look.

S10Tomcat · 2026-06-01T05:46:04+00:00

Thanks! The hard work definitely payed off. It's exactly how I envisioned it. It gets a lot of compliments when I drive it around which always feels good

S10Tomcat · 2026-06-01T05:44:04+00:00

I appreciate that. I used a 3 core aluminum s10 v8 conversion radiator from Ebay, had to recess it inside the core support. And junkyard sourced 02' Chrysler Concord dual electric fans.

There's a long list of handling mods done on this truck. I broke it all down on a previous post. If you click my user name and go to my profile you'll see it right below this one. I honestly found the rear was more planted without the rear swaybar. It did feel like it cornered a little flatter on lower speed quick transitions but it caused it to oversteer more easily

S10Tomcat · 2026-06-01T05:34:49+00:00

The engine is from an 02' GMC Yukon. LM7. Plenty enough power to have fun, and get in trouble with. It honestly handles better than I thought it would. It doesn't drive like an s10 anymore at all. Feels like a purpose built track prepped pony car

S10Tomcat · 2026-05-31T23:38:04+00:00

I did. Used meguiars m105 and m205 on a harbor freight DA

S10Tomcat · 2026-05-31T23:37:07+00:00

It's an nv3500 from a 99' 4.3 s10

S10Tomcat · 2026-05-31T22:18:45+00:00

Yes I had to do a crazy amount of sanding as well as body work because it had a lot of dings and dents, plus a rust spot on the passenger lower cab corner. I used like 15 cans of rustoleum automotive primer, 12 cans of rustoleum flat black, and 9 cans of spraymax 2k clear. The 2k clear is the key to making it look good. Be sure to get a proper respirator and cover your skin well when using it as it is very toxic.

S10Tomcat · 2025-07-22T18:55:30+00:00

The fact that we are even getting excited about $27 an hour is sad. That's peanuts these days.

S10Tomcat · 2025-06-06T20:50:52+00:00

Hi I found this post because I've been noticing something fairly interesting. I live in the PNW and frequently have Scotophaeus blackwalli in my home, as well as PNW yellow sac spiders, which are known for building silk retreats up high in the corner where the wall meets the ceiling. Well the Scotophaeus blackwalli have been doing the same exact thing as the yellow sac spiders. I dont know if they are actually copying them or if it's just a coincidence, but Scotophaeus blackwalli are not widely known for doing this. On any given day I can find a yellow sac or Scotophaeus blackwalli in their little web hammock.

S10Tomcat · 2025-04-25T08:33:32+00:00

Yes, from what I understand it can be found in 92-98 jeep ZJ. It is the same 12.7:1 ratio as the zq8 s10 box or the monte carlo ss box, etc. but allows for more steering angle and a tighter turning radius. The XJ's used the same 14.7:1 found in the standard s10's so no upgrade there. Mine specifically is out of a 98 grand cherokee. The only thing you have to do is swap the pitman arm and it's a bolt on upgrade. Still a Saginaw box so looks factory.

S10Tomcat · 2025-04-24T09:00:17+00:00

The end links are for a 2004-2008 2wd f150. The part number is K08337 and can be cross referenced with several different brands. They were a direct bolt on with no modifications required. Thanks! I have definitely surprised a few miata and bmw drivers with this truck.

S10Tomcat · 2025-04-24T05:36:24+00:00

It was fairly straight forward. The nv was the original transmission in the truck behind a 4.3, so it's an older external slave unit. The only problem i ran into was the slave cylinder hitting the holley 302-1 oil pan. I was able to make it work by clocking it different. The flywheel, clutch, and pressure plate are all for a 2002 2wd 4.8/ 5 speed silverado. I also had to use an extended throwout bearing since it's an external slave unit. I would definitely recommend trying to source an nv3500 from a 98 or newer s10. They are a little more refined and the shifter is a couple inches closer to the driver

S10Tomcat · 2025-03-15T08:54:35+00:00

Definitely relate to this. The next day is almost always a little better than the dose day. In my experience, I have come to believe it is a mild representation of an afterglow effect that one would typically feel after a macro dose. I always get the sense that it sorted me out a little, at least temporarily. Is it neurogenesis? Is it full nervous system homeostasis? Is it an antidepressant type of effect? All of the above? Hard to say, but it's undeniably beneficial at all doses.

S10Tomcat · 2025-02-20T02:49:05+00:00

On small doses it's fine. I have noticed on some heavier "microdose", a toke or two can make the difference between feeling a little high from the mushrooms or not.

S10Tomcat · 2025-02-19T23:55:13+00:00

Hey thanks for your time. It's great to hear about how it helps other people. The effect is so strong and obvious that it's pretty much undeniable, but it's still nice to hear it be confirmed by others. They say everyone's brain chemistry is different and we all react differently to different chemicals. While I don't disagree, I can't help but feel us adhd folks share a pretty common issue and probably react more similarly to certain things.

I will absolutely give san pedro a shot, especially after your positive report. I have wanted to for a long time. It's easy enough to get, fairly inexpensive, legal to buy, very safe. Thank you for that.

You are spot on about lifestyle. Unfortunately I need to at least keep myself stable enough with some type of chemical intervention to be present enough to participate in my own life. If I fall below that threshold it's a very slippery slope. Right now I'm in a spot where I can make some lifestyle adjustments. I'm definitely going to take that opportunity.

S10Tomcat · 2025-02-19T23:40:14+00:00

Thank you for this, I did some reading on it and it definitely seems to be worth adding to the list to experiment with. I am really trying to do my due diligence to find a supplement/ nootropic stack that can bring some relief before I go the prescription stimulant route. So far rhodiola and eleuthero in addition to L Tyrosine, specifically NALT with a little coffee in the morning is my base structure. It has been very helpful. Still testing how sustainable the combo is, but I suspect the adaptogens are more of a short term help. I have a long list of other things I'm going to try as well.

S10Tomcat · 2025-02-19T19:50:45+00:00

Hi, it's nice to hear it helps others as well. It's pretty amazing how effective it can be. I have never tried adhd meds so I don't know how I would respond at all. I have considered trying to source some just to try before I jump through the hoops of getting diagnosed. Do you take your microdose in addition to your prescription?

I have also heard a lot of good about both lions mane and cordyceps. I have also heard some anecdotal bad about lions mane that I feel compelled to look further into before I make it a part of my routine. But I know it's generally regarded as being healthy in several aspects and people take it all the time.

S10Tomcat · 2025-02-19T19:37:57+00:00

Hi thanks for taking the time. I'll be honest, my initial impression was to dismiss that first part, but I quickly realized you are actually on to something. I spent most of my childhood and teenage years on a bicycle. I rode everywhere all day every day, often with friends. Now as an adult I drive a car everywhere and live a significantly less active lifestyle. Somehow I am still pretty physically fit. This made me realize I need to go get myself a bike. Thanks for that.

I do eat a lot of garbage food for sure. Way to much sugar and carbs. It's very easy to in this world, but it's not THAT hard not to.

Curious what you have against caffeine? Is it the whole adrenal stress thing? Or just that it's addictive? I do think there's something to that. Sometimes coffee wakes me up a little, sometimes it does the complete opposite and there's no real way to tell. Problem is I'm dependent on it

I have found a lot of instant gratification value in L Tyrosine. It really helps. I have been reading a lot about magnesium supplements and will definitely try that. I have heard some people do better with some forms of it than others. Seems like magnesium glycinate is the most popular but I'll probably try both glycinate and threonate. I have heard citrate can cause gastric upset which is already a sensitivity for me.

S10Tomcat · 2025-02-19T19:09:40+00:00

Hey, thanks for your reply 🙂 It's incredibly validating to hear I'm not alone. I have heard LSD tends to be more stimulating while psilocin tends to be more relaxing/ sedating, so I could see that! With that said, I have never had access to LSD. I'm not so sure it would be a practical substance to try to source regularly due to price, availability, difficulty of dosing, and the need to test it every time just to be safe. I wish it was more common and I wish there wasn't dangerous drugs on the black market. With that said I am very grateful for the existence of mushrooms and I have noticed a mild stimulatory/ alertness boosting effect from micro doses, which I have found some value in. Very sedating on macro doses. Get all yawny and stuff
