Idk about the xtreme, but I used to have a s10 zq8, most people don't know what they are. But it's basically a 4.3 with a 5spd and much better gearing, better suspension and rear end, and no body kit (when compared to a standard s10, not an xrunner) Honestly I think one of them stock would take an x stock. The gearing alone makes a huge difference. The gearing and transmission in general in an x runner is a joke. And most xtremes are 4 bangers, and they're all automatics.

Here was mine. I actually liked that truck.

How easy is it to do a LSX/T56 transplant? That would make that truck scary fast. A blown LSX...wow!

I knew a few guys back on the day that had v8 swaps...still an ungly truck. I like the look of the colorado extremes especially the 4 door

Just based off having driven several of both trucks.
I think with a decent driver the X will take it.

It's pretty simple. There were kits to drop in ls motors and drive lines into those things.
