Yea, there is a guy in Michigan I think that did it in a similar year s10. He made an adapter to mate it to a M5R2 5spd out of an F150. He had to relocate the oil filter and mod the front sump oil pan. I think the trans tunnel/firewall was modified as well. It was 2wd. I think I found the link on this site, but not sure, it's been a while.
