Just installed 5.3 4l60e in wife's car. What did you use for shift cable? Tie in original alternator and battery wires? I have pypes violator on my 68 lemans and it's called that for a reason. It's 461 on e85 with 11.9;1 compression prolly why so loud. Nice video
@@oldschooltwist18 that’s awesome! I used the original shift cable from the car & I used new wires cut to the length I liked for the alternator and battery. I bet that thing sounds sweet with that setup! Thanks!
She’s looking good man planning on using this kit on my project
Great job chief. What headlights are ?
@@angelnieves6087 They are LED 7” Headlights from eBay! No “name brand”.
Lookin good
These seats look great! I love that I get to watch the progress you are making on this slick car.
Great video left a like as always came out nice
@@Robert-qh2jp thank you so much!
I’m block sanding my 80 z28 right now, fixing to paint. I completed all mechanical work and new interior. I have built cars for 40 years and I’m building this one for myself. My first car was a 1980 z28. My last car will be the same. Keep turning wrenches. The addiction of autohaulic is real. Don’t fight it
Looks good bro 👍 keep at it , I have 3 of these cars , right now I'm working on my black 80 t-top ,new gas tank and lines , brake upgrade , suspension upgrade all this summer , over this winter I'll be swapping the rear end gear and axles , it runs good with the 350 motor I have in it now ,but I may build a 383 stroker for it also this winter , my 79 r.s. gets the love next spring , had it since 97 has a built 327 with 4 speed and 373 gears, pretty quick back in the day ,
@@moongaze74 I appreciate it! & that’s awesome!
I would not have saved the carpet and I would have sound proofed it first but that carpet would definitely have to go
I believe I would have taken care of the paint before doing any of this unless your going to leave it like that if you get somebody who knows what their doing I think a lot of the paint can be buffed out to a point but I don’t know (the doors and trunk buffed) but iv also seen a lot of great new sprays that can bring paint back to life
What are you gonna be doing and using for the interior??
@@goblin2246 I just posted the first video in a series on redoing the interior you should check it out! But we recovered the rear seat with a new black vinyl/leather cover from Distinctive Industries! Also installing aftermarket front seats, 5th Gen Camaro center console, new interior plastic pieces, as well as custom door panels from LRB!
Followed you, I have a 1981 camero and I’m doing the interior as well so any thing you do and learn is definitely beneficial to me as well in the process.
@@jadenoneal2053 thanks! And that’s awesome, I’m going to try my best to document everything!
Great job in the seats! Gave me confidence for sure and good idea on the cotton backing and stuffing. Filled them out smooth.
@@freshbutplain1144 thank you! Yes the stuffing really helped fill the seats for a plusher feel and look!
Wow! That turned out really nice 👍
@@mattspontiacta thank you!
Thanks for making these videos I appreciate you
@@jeffleary1598 thank you for watching! Still trying to improve my video skills so I can bring you all better content.
Great video left a like as always..
@@Robert-qh2jp thank you It is very appreciated! I’m glad you enjoy the content!
Damn man its alot specially for someone like me thats not a mechanic i uoutube everything i have a 1979 camaro z28 n i just got it painted but my engine is leaking from the freeze plugs now im like should i rebuild or swap inknow the 5.7 is slow but i just want it to drive daily
@@DanielAlvarez-xl4qydefinitely comes down to just preference, whichever will work best for you!
Love that teal color , very nice. Really transformed your Camaro. 👍 I painted my 81 Trans Am pace car in my two car garage. I went with a 2 stage base coat , clear coat. Took me about 7 months all together. That inflatable paint booth is sweet. 👍
Good job on the LS install. I am sure it’s night and day difference in performance compared to that weak 305 engine. I am putting a LS swap parts list together for my 81 Trans Am pace car. I am either going LSA or turbo on a 5.3 I haven’t done a LS swap but my brother has on his 76 Trans Am. Thanks for posting the video on the LS swap.
@@mattspontiacta that’s awesome! Have fun with the build, either option will definitely be sweet!
Wow, you're one lucky SOB. No problems out of any of your aftermarket parts?! Dude, buy a lottery ticket already! Every YT'er I follow has been having issues with every thing they buy lately.
Nice work. I just found your channel. What are the part numbers for upper and lower grill hardware?
@@brianwilliamsZ28 thank you! & I ordered through Camaro Central, the part number for the hardware kit is GRI-85H
Yeee
I like it, the wheels, the stance, the paint job, everything. It looks like it would have in the 80s. I mean that in a good way. Looks like a solid car as well.
@@Everythingisgoingtobealright I really appreciate it!
❤🎉
Here for all the Camaro content! Subbed!
@@freshbutplain1144 awesome! Have plenty more planned! Currently waiting on some fun parts!🤙🏻
Love the color. Hope it buffs out nice for you. Love those old Camaros. Back when I was young I had a 73 and a 74. Fun cars!
@@John-jp7hn I appreciate it! & That’s awesome, definitely fun cars!
I have a 79 z28 aswell and i really like the paint job on your car and i am wondering what paint you used for it?
@@bennettcollins1474 thank you! It is Dark Teal Metallic by Restoration Shop, acrylic enamel single stage. I have a video posted of us painting the car if you wanted to check it out!
Liked and subscribed.
@@rodneymercerchannel awesome thanks!
It's just another LS swap. Seen one seen em all.
@@shootermcgavin2819 Yeah it is, nothing special. Just another waste of a comment😂
Post the link to your ls swap then big boy.
No cam?! 😅
@@blownl98 nope🥴 I do plan on installing one, plus a few other bits and pieces in the future though!
Just the fact of what you did already is “ great “
Did you have to use any spacers for the water pump? And all other accessories lined up with the truck crank pulley? Thanks
@@chriscutrona5702 No spacer required, the LS3 water pump is the same offset as the truck. And yes all other accessories lined up when using the Speed Engineering Bracket for alternator and ps pump.
@@Dylan_Bartlett thank you for reply! Prepping my engine for a 79 trans am
@@chriscutrona5702 no problem! & that’s awesome! Enjoy it, if you have any more questions I can do my best to answer them!
@@Dylan_Bartlett will have plenty more! Appreciate it!
Sweet ride man
@@justinh5036 thank you!
Looking good, I believe with a little heat from a heat gun you can shape the rear wing extension so it lines up. Great video.
@@Zelaznogsiul-63 great idea! Thanks!
@@Dylan_Bartlett you are welcome.
My childhood passion was the Z28! I had two 78 Z28s, an 81 Z28, and an 81 Firebird. You need to have the muffler outlets on the inside of the car, closest to the driveshaft. This will give you lots of room for the mufflers under the body with the excess muffler mass pointing to the tires. You can then tuck the mufflers up into pockets in the floor plan of the car. Plenty of room for the mufflers if installed correctly. Love the car. Keep up the great work!
Firstly I’d like to thank you for making these videos. I have a 78 z28 I’d really like to put a LS into and it seems intimidating but it’s not. Imma do it. Thank you very much
@@jeffleary1598 no problem! I definitely say go for it! It was a little intimidating at first, but in all honesty the whole process went fairly smoothly. Everything really just fell into place and fit up really good.
I like your style, editing, pace and the car.
@@bigospig thank you!
great simple setup!! love it
Looks Great nice job..Btw love the shades
@@Robert-qh2jp thanks!
All in all I paid 4300 cash to have my 82 c10 swapped.
@@RedEyedPatriot Not bad! Yeah I know it could have been done way cheaper but this was just how it worked out for me. If I could go back I would probably do a few things different but it is what it is now.
too much
What accessory brackets did you use on your engine? And what power steering pump did you use ?
I used a Speed Engineering Conversion bracket for the alternator and power steering pump. It is the stock power steering pump, as well as alternator that came on the 5.3. I also swapped to a LS3 style water pump.
Why not fix the paint before adding equipment, You'll have take it off before fixing paint. What you put on is the final install, not the beginning.
@@CurtisHarshey I understand that thought, honestly just too excited to have the car look more complete finally. Majority of the paint looks fine in my eyes, mainly the passenger door and trunk that need love so thinking I may get away with leaving the new parts on.
Bro this car looks beautiful ! 🔥 can’t wait to get my 1980 to this point
I used to have a 1979 Camaro. Right now I have a 1978 and 1980 Camaro. The 78 model, has a Z-28 Front end. I was living in Fort Worth when I purchased it. I wondered why did they put a Z-28 front end. I did a search for a 78 front in, and found nothing. But when I searched for a Z-28 front end, there were plenty of them available. So it has the 350 engine. And it runs really well. Zero smoke. And plenty of power.
Love the Car Man 😎
Just found your channel I watched all the videos...I liked and subscribed..
@@Robert-qh2jp Thanks! It’s really appreciated!
Wish you could have started it good work though love that wicker
@@davidjackson2001 Thanks! I’ll make sure to start it and have sound clips in the next video for sure!
Good job my man
Damn pop pop KILLED it! Well done! Looks fantastic
Gotta Love Black Dice On The Mirror. Subbed 😎. I'm gonna do you a solid and share your channel with my subscribers. I've got a LS swapped 82 c10 Squarebody myself.
@@RedEyedPatriot I appreciate the share! And that’s awesome man, love that body style!
That turned out WICKED 👍🏻💯 TEAM CAMARO 🤘🏻🏁🎶
