HUGE DIFFERENCE! Strano Master Cylinder Brace Install
Do you still run these? I have been debating about SP or Kooks
Not anymore im going single turbo on the car. But you can get those longtubes, they’re worth it!
Boutta do this
Hell yeah! 👍🏾
Should have gone with the true dual full exhaust.. My opinion but you need exhaust tips on the car. You just took the easyer way out is all..
Well yeah… id want to be like everyone else with exhaust tips… I like the axle dumps though, also i got rid of them bc im going single turbo on the car now
Keep it up my boy 🔥
And same with the rear end
The rear end is a Mosier Ford 9 inch for a 93-02 Fbody cut down 3” per side. I’m pretty certain it came from Spohn Performance. I pulled it off of another F body that was used for drag racing. That car was purchased off of Facebook marketplace as well. I took a lot of the aftermarket parts off of it and put it on my car and then took all of the stock stuff off of my car and put it back on the roller and sold the roller and got most of my money back. “Wheelen and dealin”
What suspension you use, where you get the parts?
The car has Viking dual adjustable Coilovers on the front and Viking dual adjustable shocks on the rear. Those were purchased secondhand off of Facebook marketplace.
Thanks for the video! How’s the car running today?
It was running great but it is currently being built for a single turbo & a lot of boost 💪🏾
Does it wear out pushing down on the shifter over time been wanting a new one
No it doesn’t
I have the SLP long tubes (old style) so they hang too low, I'm gonna have to swap them out...
You can get spacers for that water pump and use the truck pulley. Are you going to cut the cowl? That truck intake won’t fit unless you do. Also, I’m not sure if you have the hood clearance for the truck intake.
Yes im cutting the cowl but i want to try & keep the wipers blades
@@GreatestHITS26 just google LS water pump spacers. I got mine off Amazon. Around 20 bucks.
Nice vid and sweet parts, dude! Just did poly MM in my T/A and it was a PITA (motor still in car) lol. Also I couldn’t really tell in the video, but hopefully that starter is the “truck/updated style” would be a shame to see that beaut take a hit from a no good short ear style one
It’s the f body starter so it should work.
Well, just in case, here’s some threads on it if you aren’t aware. It’s only a problem on LS1 cars and some early trucks that had one short “ear” and one long “ear” from what I’ve gathered, most others had the updated starter. ls1tech.com/forums/generation-iii-external-engine/1152155-ls1-block-broke-starter-mount-no.html You can either do the LS3 starter or a 6.0 truck starter, just make sure the number of teeth match the one you have, IF you want to upgrade. Also, the LS3 starter is lighter but will have a pigtail you’ll have to install on the fbody (one wire) whereas the truck one is plug-n-play but heavier. ls1tech.com/forums/generation-iii-external-engine/1578054-5-3-starter-fit-ls1-fbody.html#post16658287 I ended up going with a Pure Energy 6492SN ‘06 Silverado 6.0 starter from RockAuto, oh and make sure to get another long bolt as well.
I’ve been buying parts over time to install on this engine for the past couple months so here is Part 6 of the engine build I hope you all like it.
I love my 93 everyone talked bad when I got it I was really disappointed I mean everyone now a few years later I get thumbs up and compliments constantly about it
Enjoy your ride man! It doesn’t matter what engine you have. Screw the haters
That passenger side clamp is installed wrong. The piece that sits between the band that the bolt goes through needs to be rotated 90 degrees or it’ll never really tighten like it should.
How is the ground clearance? Are you riding at factory height?
What rim is that?
VMS Racing V-Star
Damn thats alotta money for control arms, I juzt used rockauto and bought brand new greasable upper/lower control arms (w bushings) and front sway bar links/bushings for less than half the price of those lowers.
They’re drag race suspension & there adjustable so that’s why they cost a lot of money
Is this still on the car and ur still happy with it?
No, it’s no longer on the car but the exhaust was okay… the dang thing kept falling off. I’m doing a single turbo build with a exhaust fender exit look at my newer videos and check out the build process.
@@GreatestHITS26 alrighty, cool!
hey i forgot to ask- were there any fitment issues with the driver side? I have seen some guys have to shave some of the k member for clearance..
No fitment issues for me, but other than that you may have to bend some things so you can clear the headers.
@@GreatestHITS26 cool thanks bro ✌️
@@Ballen1182 np!
These results were surprising because i had a 98 trans am with slp headers, ypipe, and loudmouth catback. 346rwhp 🤷♂️
I didn’t really have the best tuner back then right now I’m doing a full rebuild of the car and putting a single turbo on the Trans Am go watch my latest videos and see
@@GreatestHITS26 nice! That should put you well above 346 😄
@@Ballen1182 yes 🙌🏾 the build ain’t easy but I can’t wait to finish & racing the car soon!
before it went to hell my 98 turbo lq was about 650ish to the wheels. its honestly a bit terrifying with how quickly things can get sketchy. incredibly fun, but ohhhh boy you have to be focused.
Wow! I love the sound that!!! I can’t wait to get my firebird done ✅
Heck Yeah 🙌
Sounds like a beast off that 2 step 😮💨
It was so sick!
I had a great time taking you for a loop in the car! I did figure out what the “breakup“ issue was. The car just needed a fresh set of plugs and it’s good to go. I need to take you for another ride. The car is pulling MUCH harder than it was. I could tell that when I took you down the road that it wasn’t 100%, but figured we could get some content and just enjoy riding around. Let’s do it again soon! 💪🏽
Yes sir for sure!!! 🔥 im glad you got it figured it out, i had a feeling it was spark plugs.
Will there be any videos posted on your channel?
@@ALLSEASONHUSTLE are you talking about me or James?
@@GreatestHITS26 James. I see he only has 2 videos on his channel.
@@ALLSEASONHUSTLE yeah he doesn’t really post on there but check out his instagram page. It’s in my bio on this video.
I had to repost this video because I didn't like the way it turned out the first time.... so I hope you like this updated video! I also made some slight changes to it as well
How do you feel about the 2010 Dodge Ram 1500 SLT extended cab?
They’re cool trucks to drive-in, but they’re not as reliable as the second generation Dodge rams, I just bought one myself a few months ago and I posted it on my channel so go check it out in my latest video
Hi there. So has the shift knob replacement worked good from hawks Motorsports? Any issues?
I want to upgrade my turbo 400 to some stronger parts but I’m worried. Never worked on an auto before.
You gotta be committed to do something you haven’t done before. That’s part of learning just keep watching my videos & you’ll learn how to modify a TH400 👍🏾😊
I can’t believe im doing this but at least i get to learn how this transmission works.
do you have the link to the buttons by chance?
www.lingenfelter.com/product/L460105297.html
Any drone when cruising highway around 1800-2200 RPM?
Tons. I have the same exhaust and regret installing it.
No not really
You need a better gear & a torque converter I haven’t watched all your vids yet but that 60ft should be better in an auto. And as far as the burnout goes try a smaller burnout when using street tires just to clean them off so they aren’t over heated. Unless you burnout for fun which is always good haha
I’m fixing all of that and if you watch my latest videos I took the motor and transmission out because I’m doing a single turbo build so check that out! And I like doing burnouts😂
@@GreatestHITS26 I just watched them I hope it all works out for you I have a 01Z28 I’m about to put the torquer V2 in so we will see the results from my dyno tune this month. M6 car so a little different. I respect the grind of doing it yourself, that’s what I do as well
Let’s goo my BF❤🔥🔥🛻
Thanks for watching BAE😉
Tire rack 3 days reasonable prices
Comment down below 👇🏾 what you would like to see me do with this truck!
Movie reviews with me☺️
@@FaithDillon-yv3bn lol idk about that 😂
Where did you buy your replacement bro??? Or did you pull from a junkyard??
Junkyard, but you can buy them on ebay now 👍🏾
I wish i could do all this to my own car instead of blowing money for someone else to do it.. one day
All it takes is to just do it & you’ll be glad you did👍🏾
@@GreatestHITS26 i work at Subaru but i just do brakes and alignments, i got a 1998 Camaro z28 i just bought this cam was the 3k stall good?
Thank you for being honest about the power. My car made 413whp with full bolt ons and cams
You’re welcome man! I try to be as upfront as possible. If you like my channel please subscribe & watch my latest videos!
@@GreatestHITS26 cam ^ lol. I got you. Like wise
When you say full bolt ons do you mean heads too or stock heads?
@@ChrisGroom-cq7rw stock 241 heads. With upgraded valve springs. Speed engendering headers, TB, k&n cai, dorman ported intake mani. UD pulley, ported maf ends (must have), Bosch 32lbs injectors, tsp cam. Dyno tuned with 3.43 rear end.
Good job sound great 👍🏼
This task is on my list. Thank you for posting. Good job and keep up the good work
Thanks man!
I hope you all enjoyed the video, the engine is almost there to being done. Now i gotta worry about what transmission & rear end is need to get 🤔
Got One To Do Soon Thanks For The Video
I know it’s been years. But painting that center of the rear bumper black wouldn’t a been a whole lot cooler to hide that black
Yeah but im trying to keep the white & blue theme on the car, that’s why I didn’t want to paint it
good video dude thanks for posting. i have a 96 trans am with a 6 speed noticed my output shaft was leaking wanted to see a video quick to make sure i could do it easily on jack stands in my garage, should be ok!
Great! Im glad it worked
How have the long tubes been holding up ? Looking to buy these pretty soon. Its so cool !
Thank you so much. Huge help.
I wish I had your knowledge, I want to work on my own vehicles too. got a 01 TA and 97 silverado stepside. About to rebuild my LS1 from my TA and throw it into my 79 El Camino! - At the moment though I got someone doing my LS swap putting a 02 Z06 motor in my TA and they screwed up rebuilding the top half
Haha thanks for the compliment, i do my best 🤜🏾
What dyno result read of horsepower?
