An uncle of mine has a '97 Brazilian S10, originally fitted with an Opel-designed 2.2L SOHC gasser, and swapped a '92 2.5L on it. In spite of its OHV layout being deemed outdated, it's still one of the most dependable engines for a compact truck, no wonder it was used for so long in those Grumman-Olson LLV mail carriers...
BTW the Iron Duke is still available brand-new for marine and stationary/industrial applications, enlarged to 2.8L, which were even used in some Chevrolet Caprice taxis and export versions in late 80s.
