The 2.8 l v6 was never used in these. The first generation used 4 cylinders exclusively, and the 2nd gen had a 2.5 l v6 option, but the 2.8 wasn't available.
I don't think so. I believe it's the "METRIC" bellhousing pattern, because it's the 60* and not the 90* like the 4.3 V6 and the first gen V8's. The early 80's Cherokee's and Comanche truck that had the anemic 2.8. And the easiest engine swap for them was the 3.4. Because it was an all round better engine.
This 2x4 Tracker came with a 1.8L. The 99-2004 4x2 came with the 2.0L engine. I’m getting ready to take a perfect 2003 2x4 Tracker and install a 5.3 with a power glide. And a 4 Link 9in rearend. My 5.3 will be stock with a cam. Possibly setup for a single turbo down the line. I hope to run mid 10’s N/A. My Tracker is original 70k miles and zero rust car out of Alabama. With full cage and strip interior I hope to be under 2500lbs without me in it, ready to race. The 2x4 trackers make great light full frame race cars. Easy to build and make go fast.
I bought a 1991 Tracker black with black top and the green TRACKER on the side. Automatic with a 4x4 mini stick. You had to get out and lock the hubs then put it in 4 wheel drive. The damn thing was gutless. I got pulled over by a Texas highway patrol and he said he clocked me doing 100mph. I laughed and he said this is serious and I agreed it was seriously funny. I was on I10 going from Houston to San Antonio with the top partially open. Just the sunroof part you would unlatch and fold back then Velcro. So it's like driving a paper bag sideways with the open part of the bag facing ahead to catch all the wind. I said there is no way in hell I even could have remotely gotten close to 100mph. Maybe if we were going 65 then we went off a cliff a really deep cliff. I said I can't go that fast. I've got 80 hamster power with 94 ft pounds of torque. He laughed and gave me a warning and let us go. I really couldn't get faster than 70. The vibrations would get so bad by the time we'd get across town I've got rheumatism and no fillings in my teeth. But it got the girls and being ages 18-24 when I had the little car the fishing was GOOD! Ahh great times..
@@thelastholdout Last time I talked to the owner at the track, he said it has a swap from a CTS-V. I dont remember if it was single or twin turbo, though.
@@jackdaniel1848 thank you for the correction! Either way it's a hell of a machine. Only thing that would be funnier is throwing a Tesla engine into it or something.
What would anyone suggest i have a 2.5l 24v v6 2001 suzuki grand vitara 4x4 idk what i should do if i should swap it for 2jz gte for more space and better performance but it is a offroading car so i kinda like both ideas💀
I have a very nice little 2002 Vitara and I don't think I'll feel complete until it has a turbo on it .. anybody out there know what I need to get that job done...
Chevrolet made a version and called in Chevrolet Tracker, how the "geo" came about I have no clue. I live in Denmark and my version is a 2004 Suzuki Grand Vitara 2.5 V6 Automatic
Sounds like a whipple under that hood... Not sure what its attached to but with the power to weight ratio and the driver hooking it up and laying down 9's... It doesn't seem to matter... Porn is porn though... And we all want a peek under that skirt
not at all, the time and effort it takes to redo all the wiring and get everything working with an engine it was never intended to run with is massive.
I mean... technically they do? The Geo brand as a whole is just rebadged Suzuki vehicles. But yeah, the Tracker is specifically the Geo branded one; the Suzuki version is the Sidekick

Just a heads up Tracker fans, if you're Tracker is equipped with the GM 2.8 V6, any small or big block Chevy engine will bolt right up.
That's Great info thank you
Which means any Powerglide, th350, th400, 700R4 will bolt to that, also, even 4l60\80
I have a built to spec 4L75+, behind my gen IV 6.0

Lol. A 9 in a fucking Geo Tracker. Having owned one of those deathtraps, that's fucking scary. I want it...
Man that thing is a beast! I wasn’t expecting that take off
No kidding. Power squat and see ya.
Yea the Mustang didn't expect it either 🤣😂🤣😂
This man drives to Death...
this height is too dangerous
Sweet! Want what they have in that one in my Tracker. I'm not hating, just appreciating 🙏
Little Geo!
Still got 60mpg
9.97 in a Geo Tracker!

Great story, it brings back memories.
That Mustang was looking for a crowd of people after that.
Was heard saying "This is balls, somebody is getting mowed down tonight"
LOL!!!
😂
😂
Gotta love the announcer. Up next is a Suzuki Samurai or whatever...
That was the anomaly I was looking for to make me laugh! Cracks me up every time.
I was not prepared for this
hahaha that just makes me smile unless i was racing you then i wouldn't smile at all.... nice sleeper
My 1.6 tracker doesn't run that good.
mine dont run at all
That’s crazy this is a true sleeper
I'd LOVE to see under that hood. That's funny as it gets.
Sounds like an ls with a turbo or turbos
It's a turbo 6.0 V8 taken out of a truck apparently. Just read an article about it because it was put up for sale.
@@thelastholdout Last time I talked to the owner at the track, he said it has a swap from a CTS-V. I dont remember if it was single or twin turbo, though.
@@jackdaniel1848 thank you for the correction! Either way it's a hell of a machine. Only thing that would be funnier is throwing a Tesla engine into it or something.
That thing is quick!
Lovers of these just jealous that the canopy bracket isn't broken
It's a geo tracker.
Jim Chance thank you for the correction I greatly appreciate it
Vegas Drag and Brag wow, now I feel like a total douche for calling you guys dumbasses...
sorry. Hahahaha
Jim Chance it's all good man I take videos when I'm not racing and cut over a month so I some times jack up what/who's car truck bike when I edit them
Suzuki Sidekick, Geo/Chevy Tracker
Or Vitara or escudo... Probably got other names too
Gotta love the canvas top🤦♂️😂
Wow that thing is fkin evil !.
Its a skyline engine in a geo tracker
That off the line 100 feet is bye bye. Like a electric motore
Hooks and books
Car for sale right now. Has a turbo now and runs 9. I found the link. Has late model corvette engine.
My dream is to build a sisuki dragster like this
dythebawse the gamer gotta check this out in person thing it's bad ass and gets all the attention
Vegas Drag and Brag im selling a tracker this week, one day imma buy another one just to do this, i swear its my favorite car ever
Two and a half times faster than mine!
19 times faster then mine. Lol mines on 32s load e mud tires stick shift 5:12 gears and slow ass hell.
Dang what kind of engine is in there my 94 Suzuki Sidekick don't do that?
Wow 😂 he woke up and chose to win
Geo Tracker, not Suzuki. The Suzuki version is called the Sidekick
Thank you for the correction.
@@vegasdragandbrag9857 you're very welcome. Now that you know, why don't you change the title? It's really annoying.
Sorry about the annoyance to you, just got to a computer to update it.
Actually the Suzuki is the Samurai
@@kimberblake4215 nope. The old one is the Samurai. This generation was called the Sidekick.
NOS and a wheelie bar
Hell yeah now that would be fun
i just bought an oem suzuki sidekick. it has 80hp and 0-60 in 15 seconds. i wanna go fast
Wasn't even a race holy shit.
That mustang owner got schooled... It's all about power to weight ratio and your math sucks!
Is this tiny thing running Leroy the Savage’s tune?
Is this still available? Price?
god damn what monster is under that hood?
What’s it run in the 1/8? My tracker is at 7.2 at 96mph in the 1/8
post a vid!!
What would anyone suggest i have a 2.5l 24v v6 2001 suzuki grand vitara 4x4 idk what i should do if i should swap it for 2jz gte for more space and better performance but it is a offroading car so i kinda like both ideas💀
I have a very nice little 2002 Vitara and I don't think I'll feel complete until it has a turbo on it .. anybody out there know what I need to get that job done...
Rock Solid Motorsports Built my turbo kit for my trans am.
@@vegasdragandbrag9857 did this tracker have a role cage?
do you need jumper installed to rest engine light. or service light
Nice Car
Stock front suspension?
Is it just the uk where they are called the Suzuki vitara?
It's a Suzuki Vitara in Australia as well.
If I recall correctly, it was the Vitara basically everywhere but the US, and possibly Canada
Chevrolet made a version and called in Chevrolet Tracker, how the "geo" came about I have no clue. I live in Denmark and my version is a 2004 Suzuki Grand Vitara 2.5 V6 Automatic
Fifth gear wide open.
Watching this with the stock 8v 1.6l in mine. Haha
Other than the Geo, I only saw Mustangs, after the first, none of them wanted to race? Typical.
Wich engine Swap is this?
Chadmander I belive it's a 6.0 but I could be wrong, one of my earlier videos he commented on it and said what it was
Sounds like a whipple under that hood... Not sure what its attached to but with the power to weight ratio and the driver hooking it up and laying down 9's... It doesn't seem to matter... Porn is porn though... And we all want a peek under that skirt
What are the specs
what is the cc?
Has a 5.3L in it
If the tracker doesn't have the same block as what came in the car im not impressed. It just a body at that point.
not at all, the time and effort it takes to redo all the wiring and get everything working with an engine it was never intended to run with is massive.
What engine?
5.3 LS Swap
Jesus
WOW
Is that a stick shift or automatic
Auto
Killaaa🏁☠️
Marcus H made you a new video
Vegas Drag and Brag Awesome!
Mine is also white. It is not as fast :b
Show the time.
9.97ET 133MPH was first pass, all other runs were made during No Time for grudge event
That's super impressive!!!
my geo tracker is 22 mpg lmfaoo
It’s a Chevy not suzuki
Heartbeat is Definitely Chevy
@@vegasdragandbrag9857 japanese body chevy motor
only bad thing of it its a automatic...
Autos get more consistent numbers on the strip
@@rcash3625 robo soccer too
With a trans brake.......:) !!!!
My tracker is better. You want to know why its because it has a redneck turbo thst puts on 1000 herspers (aka a sqeeky belt)
Damg
Suzuki doesn’t make trackers
Thank you
