Enjoyed the video, I've done same thing only with a square body and big block. The NV 3500 works well but the center force clutch will not hold the power. Maybe the LS will work. Good luck
Love the vids man one of my favorite to watch. And my opinion you're very underrated channel for as great as it is. You always get me to watch everyone you put up keep them coming brother. And I know it has nothing to do with the vid or anything I live right by the Kentucky border on 64 like kenova Huntington area do you live on that side of Kentucky?
Great work so far brother! Desperately need a update from you man. Biggest hurdle that is never shown or explained in detail that youd be a killer if you could provide would be the neutral safety switch and the reverse switch. Just subbed as well, I got a 06 silverado id love to NV3500 swap as well so im doing as much research and du-diligence before i pull the trigger.
@Marcus Wood Hey Marcus how ya been?hope all is well. It's been a while since you last posted. We sure could use a video on the wiring for that trans. Please
Love the videos just curious as to where the finished product videos are coming in? Currently doing the same swap on my 05 but I’m stumped as far as connections go. Please upload more content!
So I have a 97 obs with a 5.7 and the nv3500 I’ve gone through 3 clutch master cylinders the rod keeps bending and popping out of socket. And I’ve broken 3 clutch pedals since the upper connecting part is plastic 😤 it’s left me stranded so many times
Hey man I just got done doing my nv3500 swap and I’m having trouble getting into gear like the slave isn’t engaging or something I bless the slave pedal feels pretty stiff I think it might have something too do with that electrical connector that came with the master cylinder how did you go about wiring that up is it needed?
Does that flywheel extend out .400” more then the other stock 4.8/6.0 one when your swapping to an older manual transmission there’s a difference in length of crank stick out
I just did a clutch on nv3500 Silverado everything new flywheel etc and now at idle it shakes and vibrates pretty bad. With clutch in or out ? Everything went in normal etc. do you have any idea at all what I’m looking at? Clutch works good shifts good just shakes bad with rpm. I’m lost. Thanks in advance !
What's the difference between the smaller pilot bearing you installed, and the larger one that was still in the bag (not the throw out bearing)? My kit only had that larger style bearing.
I ran nv3500 & nv4500 behind a 5.3 and had bad problems shifting either so I'm gonna try that small bearing see if that fixes anything. Clean out the crank bore
@@guitarguy3221 I'm two years into driving my NV3500 swap with the larger bearing. Seems ok, shifting is stiffer than most manuals I've owned, but I figure it's a NV3500 thing, that and the gear whine in 1,2,3 and 5.
@@Superhonda-z50 yeah my 3500 whined SUPER bad but the 4500 was slower all around. shifting, accelerating, mileage, ratios. i thought the v8 toasted the 3500 but i was wrong haha i miss it. some suggest overfilling the fluid watching Tom's refurb bang shifting inspired me to get another 3500 im currently rebuilding the block face or crank bore could be crooked causing my input shaft to hang up on something
@@guitarguy3221 so how hard was yours to shift? Mine isn't easy, I usually wait a second or two after pushing in the clutch before I shift. Seems harder to shift once it is warm
@@Superhonda-z50 3500 was bad but it had 4.56 (swapped in 5.3 from 4.3L) gears so it was screaming. the 4500 trans is REALLY bad it takes 3 seconds to go from 2nd to 3rd. 1st is not streetable. the only easy shift is 3rd to 4th because im slapping it down in there. I do it on purpose just to feel like i have less of a shitbox haha i learned it goes in easier if i slap it towards 4th before 3rd. still grinds lol. reverse is synchronized but it grinds unless i shove it into 5th first
One quick question. Aren't the flywheel fasteners too short? I order the same thing but the flywheel is waaay thicker than the flex plate. You think there will be an issue with the depth of the bolts not going in too far in the crank shaft????
I had the same question im currently doing a 5.3 5 speed and the fly wheel seem too short. Mechanic pulled the trigger and said to send it like that. Motor is still out trying to figure something out before they put it in tomorrow
I cannot find a video on wiring in the nv3500 from the 4l60e swap. Neutral safety switch and lights. And can you explain what the tuners do to swap the ecm from auto to manual? I’m keeping my electric shift tcase. I’m just swapping the tranny and drive shaft(s) as I have a 4x4
I'm looking at the same deal with my Silverado too. I have electric switch for my 4x4. Can't find information too. Have you found anything yet on your swap?
Hey man so question. The leftover harness from the automatic. What lines did you delete or have to retrofit for speed sensor. And your neutral saftey did you override it?
@@christophermerz4787 I done a 6.0 swap with 5 speed in my 95 obs, I took the factory plug off the side of my 4l60 and plug the harness into that to get it up and running till I could figure the reverse lights and Speedo signal out.
What wires from the 5.3 auto trans harness wires did you hook up to your 5 speed trans speed sensor and neutral safety switch for it to work . I’m stuck on that park
I’m new to transmission swaps; just wondering if the NV3500 would work with the 5.7 liter Vortec? Currently have a 96 with the 4l60E and 4wd. Great video and detail
I just ended up grabbing a Duralast starter from autozone. It’s identical to the one I pulled off that was with the automatic. So you may have something funky going on.
I am gonna do that same swap too probably in the next month. 4L60E to nv4500, in a 1999.5 silverado 5.3l single cab short box 4x4. I believe it's all the same stuff.
@@johnphillips5669 hey dude that’s awesome. I have the 01’ short best step-side with the 4L60 and 5.3. After you finish the swap would you send me a complete parts list you used?
I’m looking to swap a 5.3 into a 4.3 Silverado 1500. It’s a 2004. I’ve done the 5.3 swap before, it was just into a automatic. So all I should need is a clutch, flywheel, a flex plate and the bearing ? Am I missing anything?

Thanks for the content, doing a nv3500 5speed swap from a 4l60e with a vortec 5.7 in my 1996 Z71 4x4. Similar not the same, but excellent tips.
Doing a great job young man, I’m trying to do my 90 Silverado 1500 from automatic to Muncie 4 speed

Would all those parts work for 2003 6.0 LS engine I also have an NV 3500transmission as well
What would I need for a 6.0 out of a 07 Silverado 2500 New body style goin into a 89 c2500 nv4500
Waiting for the end product! Imma try this in an 05 tahoe
we need more videos on these trucks
Lots of content coming! I appreciate the support!
Just waiting for the next video to see what else is needed like what connections are needed for the Speedo
As far as electrical goes a speed sensor wire and reverse is the only thing truck works on the gauge cluster?
I need some help here could you tell me what I need to do please if I sent pictures of my 1999 chevy silverado 5 speed??
So I have a 97 obs with a 5.7 and the nv3500 I’ve gone through 3 clutch master cylinders the rod keeps bending and popping out of socket. And I’ve broken 3 clutch pedals since the upper connecting part is plastic 😤 it’s left me stranded so many times
Hi what flywheel did you use ? My is a 5.3 2005
I thought the bigger bearing was the correct pilot bearing?
Hello! Great video as always! Do you have a video where you remove the pilot bearing? Up against it right now, got bread, grease, you name it on deck.
I put a nv3500 behind a 5.3 and got awful shifting & disengagement. I think I used the wrong pilot bearing. 4.8 clutch & flywheel
Hey man I just got done doing my nv3500 swap and I’m having trouble getting into gear like the slave isn’t engaging or something I bless the slave pedal feels pretty stiff I think it might have something too do with that electrical connector that came with the master cylinder how did you go about wiring that up is it needed?
What was your driveshaft length after you got it all sorted out. Thank you!!
By any chance do you have a picture of your part list of this video
Do you shim the throw out bearing?
Hi what flywheel did you use ?
I have a 2007 silverado classic with a lq9 6.0 supercharged that I want to make into a manual 5spd
Never use diaphragm clutch with weights this is extra you don’t need. Use clutch with Borg&Beck to replace diaphragm.
Does that flywheel extend out .400” more then the other stock 4.8/6.0 one when your swapping to an older manual transmission there’s a difference in length of crank stick out

Did you ever figure the shaking out? I'm curious
What motor mounts? Part number?
Electric work I need information man I’m swapping a 5.3 into my truck using a an automatic harness please help
How did you connect the slave cylinder clutch line to the master cylinder, I've been having problems since last week trying to figure it out
Preshate the video man. How bout netural safty switch?
how did you re pin the wiring harness or what wiring harness did you use
Would same application work on 4wd
How would i know if its a nv3500 out of my 93 with a 4.3 and 5 speed?
what fly wheel is it i got a motor from an automatic and the crank is to short for my flywheel
Would the flywheel not work from the V6 or they balanced differently from a V8?
Any part number for that pilot bushing? Is it the centerforce one on summit?

Hey man im doin the same project but with a 4.8 and nv3500 I wanted to know what modification u did to the engine harness so it can fit the nv3500
I spliced the reverse light switch and taped up the Auto trans plug. The vss should be the same
Will the nv3500 work with 6.2 l92 motor

Yes it would
They were factory and came in many of the c1500 vortecs 96 going forward also came in 95 and earlier
Neutral safety switch ?
Where can I order those pilot bearing kit?
How long is your driveshaft
“Lemmeh git dis sum bich outta heare” and don’t furgit ur duoils
What kind of starter u running bud? I’m in the middle of the exact swap on my 99 Silverado and my automatic starter is rubbing against my flywheel

@@marcuswoodxx gotcha 👌 how about ur reverse lights?
@@juangodinez5392 just splice it on the old auto harness

What did you do about the wiring for the transmission
????
That’s what you call a fab job
I'm sure it's better than anything you have done!
how much cost conver 2010 silverado to manual transmision
Did you found out?
Can a 2008 5.3 be done trans swap
I hope everything is okay. I'm eager to see how this project is coming along.
We will have an update video ASAP. I appreciate you watching !! Check me out on Instagram for some up to date content. @marcuswoodxx
i feel like this is a dumb question from watching your past videos on this.. this transmission and parts will work on the 4.3 as well?
Well I need more information on something else
👍
HOW much
Is it the same for a 1993 Chevy k1500 5.7L
