    Well thats definatly different you might want to try maximum torque specialties their # is 262-740-1118 and they have a website, they specialize in 500/472 Caddy engines installed into other vehicles. I've got an S10 I'm working on too but, I wasn't planning on putting a 500 into it, but I also have a big Caddy with a 472 in it. I love that 550 ft. lbs. of torque at 400 horsepower. Post your pictures as you go, I'd like to see how you do this. I think this will be interesting. What's wrong with the S10 body? No good? I can tell you how my friend set up his brake booster.He put it backwards right in front or under the drivers seat with a slot in the floor where he welded a tab on the bottom of the pedal that hooked to a pipe. He cut the bar over the pedal off so that when he pressed the pedal the bar went through the center of the pipe so it would press on the rod underneath the pipe and push on the reversed master cylinder under the drivers seat. If you don't understand how I put this, put your finger in the middle of a pencil and move the pencil back and forth, you'll get the idea. I hope this helps you with that at least. Keep posting I'd like to see this. Thanks.
