Ok. These are the builds I like to see, not just the 100k rotisserie builds that will never see a highway. I want to see nice, clean daily drivers that you can go to work in, or go cruising the spot or take the All American Road Trip in. Grassroots motorsports at it's finest. Well done, sir. Well done.
Im glad to see you going with a 4l60e. Too many people always want to go with the 4l80 and like they making big power. Thanks for being honest. Stock driveshaft, stock rear end. Drivability for highway and street driving. Everything doesn’t have to be a race car. Bit by bit fellas
Man I swear you ask what they got they don’t wanna say they don’t give the price but give you a $10k+ price. First video I seen Mm someone actually go part by part with the prices and got the prices on screen to show he not bs. I fucking love it 😊
@@drejackson1000thanks so much for your time doing this video. I’m doing my car soon, my first LS swap. Trying to figure out what some of the components are on the engine. I’m first going to ID the block VIN and year for sure- then go from there. The two lines (with silver locked ends and black braided runs) on the left side of the truck intake are the fuel supply and return, correct?

KEEP POSTING POSITIVE BLUE COLLAR FUN STUFF MANN. #BLACK HISTORY MOUTH
Looks like that number 3 spark plug boot is touching the header. Think it will be problems later. Good stuff. Sounds good. I've heard a swap like this costs between $5 and 6K so great job.
Very clean and impressive.. this is how it’s done when u do ur research and put in ur own work.. too many ppl complain about bein jerked around when they don’t even try to do research.. great job, later on u can upgrade to an lines for ur fuel.. it makes it way easier with maintenance and cleans it all up
Great job! I’m still contemplating putting an LS in my 96 Caprice!! I can’t do all of that work myself but 2K is an absolute steal for that transformation!!! WOW
Looks decent. 2011 camaro water pump and tensioner will allow a lot nicer looking upper radiator hose. The outlet is on the driver's side where it ought to be.
i hope you know this video is about to put you on the map.....everyone including myself is gonna want you to do LS budget builds for them this is one of the BEST LS SWAP VIDEO ON TH-cam i just wanna drop off my car an you tell me everything you need
@drejackson1000 thanks for the parts list bro. Monte is looking good love the ralleys. Bout to start on my 85 442 ttop Cutlass. I've got a very similar list of parts for mine.
This is what I love about doing things yourself. It's trial and error and you gotta start somewhere. The key is learning from mistakes. Keep up the good work my dude!!
Congratulations sir! You made it happen with hard work. You impress me and thank you for sharing your journey! I'm doing a similar swap in my '55 chevy.
So glad to hear you mention be careful with those harnesses 😂 I drove myself insane with one of those. The car DID crank and ran crazy which drove me nuts trying to figure out why. Ended up the harness was pinned all sorts or wrong. Fixed the pin outs and now it's perfect but it was way off
Beautiful work man. I've been contemplating trying put a swap into an older car. Good to see with some hard work it can be done without putting me in years of debt lol. Take care.
Bro this is gold. If you want to just do a swap you show exactly what you need to get to have it happen. Nice build. The hardest part for me was the transmission crossmember mount had to get it fabricated but it all worked out.
Excellent build on an excellent body. Thank you for pricing out your build and reminding everyone the joy of keeping low insurance costs and still getting good performance out of a BUILT car
driver side 2nd spark plug wire was literally sittin on the header that will melt eventually grab some sparkplug wire boots for them to insulate them, also get that red wire off the fuel line with the metal clamp, where the fuel pump is... thats a time bomb if that wire splices over time by vibration it can ignite... and i'd also advise you to think about getting a better upper radiator hose situation cuz that thang is kinked and restricting flow.... coo car overall looks nice... thanks for sharin it
Appreciate the game I just got myself a project 69 caprice 4 door she has some cancer But I’ll put some pictures on TH-cam soon Appreciate the motivation bro 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪💪👍💯
Just ran across your video and upon watching it I did come across something that was going to hurt you.. (Your top rad hose ) You need to run that hose a different way because it looks closed off where it goes over breather tube and for that it will get hot and over heat
I was looking for this comment. One of the headers looks like it’s physically touching the spark plug boot. Run it too long and it could melt through then start arcing. Much respect to the build though.
That's a nice build. Just picked up a 2000 Tahoe that had a tree crush the roof for $400. Gonna gut it and use the drivetrain in my 2011 Range Rover Sport 💪
Nice looking car... nice job clean looking....be careful in the rain. I have owned many G- bodies...they will swap ends in the rain 🌧️☔. Like the tail pipe the way I always ran it...
@@gordocarbo all that’s a wash when you put the turbo on the 5.3. My 383 is a 2 bolt main so if I turbo that I need serious machine work including H beam rods as my I beams are only rated to 700
Amazing and easy to follow video, you made sure to cover everything. Keep up tye good work, I can't wait for this channel to blow up like you deserve, God bless!
Bro good content the information was very helpful I'm going to be doing my first swap on a 1975 monte carlo a lot of the information is very similar.....
Man great job and presentation on ur build! I’ll give you $2k to help me get my ‘86 C10 done. My lil cuz Southern Chevy TV was gon help me get right, but he was killed on my birthday couple years ago now.. and o like to work on my own cars also but don’t kno motors. How can one get in touch wit cha? I live in New Orleans
Great job sourcing those parts for good prices! I saw a couple of you spark plug boots touching the the headers, you should get spark plug boot covers for those before the boots melt. Maybe even dimple the header to make some clearance. Burnt spark plug wires create weird driveability issues. Good work.
I just pull my LT1 in my bubble caprice a few days ago getting shit ready I had the motor in trans for my truck but it is cheaper to do it yourself you’re videos were very helpful Thoe bro keep it up 👍🏾
Are those spark plug wires resting against the headers? If so that will definitely cause a misfire eventually. Nice setup and i love the car and what you did with it. Congrats
Man, I've been saving motors for a while. my couple swaps,,, years ago,, This is a good video it's what it's about,, Do my best to use this,, Put square trucks so I got Room ,, This small problem sort of harnessed right,,, Are the best way, yes.,, I guess I need to find a tuner. trust understand junk it's fix.

Brother Jackson job well done that all you need because you can hope in that baby and ROLL OUT anywhere you want . Much love to you and mad respect.
You did a heck of a great job on this sound really good
The carbed LS build in the caprice on my page has the same issue with the PS closeness to the pump, but it works fine. Great job on the build brother

Awsome monte man. Good work true hot rod. Built not bought

Just ran across your video and upon watching it I did come across something that was going to hurt you..
(Your top rad hose )
You need to run that hose a different way because it looks closed off where it goes over breather tube and for that it will get hot and over heat
Yeaaa I noticed my temp going up and down when I drive that may be the reason I’m still messing around with it I may just try the truck hose
I would put spark plug covers over your wires because them headers get hot af.
I was looking for this comment. One of the headers looks like it’s physically touching the spark plug boot. Run it too long and it could melt through then start arcing. Much respect to the build though.
Man I miss my 86 LS. Nice ride bro.
Wow, great looking car, nice job, love that LS👍🇨🇦
Good to see you made a decision and finished the swap...aye is 3 and 5 ignition coil boot touching exhaust manifold.
Get you some wire cover for the fuel pump red wire. Wire is going from here to there and has alot of scrub points that will cause fraying.
Spark wire melting on the header bro. She look good n well put together 🦾
Yea I’m gone switch it up
@@drejackson1000get the MSD wires with the bendable/flexible plug boot I was having the same issues not anymore.
That's a nice build. Just picked up a 2000 Tahoe that had a tree crush the roof for $400. Gonna gut it and use the drivetrain in my 2011 Range Rover Sport 💪

Man I wish I was near you. You did an awesome job on the build.
Doing the same thing right now to my 77 shortbed… && it’s not what everyone says they just be wanting to tap them pockets shit ain’t high at all

this is awesome man so much pride and dedication!! wayy cooler than some rich dude buying a lambo off the stealership
1:48 you got that ign wire touching the header. youll have misfire in that hole when it melts.
Man, I bet that thing is all kinds of fun. Nice job!

im so happy i found your channel DUDE thank you!!!!!!!
Man good Gbody build, really nice!The only thing i suggest is getting a good brand fuel regulator.I definitely need to make a gbody build like this!
The time try building your own trans check out the video by transmission bench I did my 4L80E trans it wasn't hard
Man great job and presentation on ur build! I’ll give you $2k to help me get my ‘86 C10 done.

Great job sourcing those parts for good prices! I saw a couple of you spark plug boots touching the the headers, you should get spark plug boot covers for those before the boots melt. Maybe even dimple the header to make some clearance. Burnt spark plug wires create weird driveability issues. Good work.
Could he wrap those portions of the headers with header insulation tape?
@@jamesbroomfield7799 If the boots dont touch the headers. Otherwise they will get wrecked too.
Much respect appreciate all the info I’m in the process of doing my swap
Thank you bruh!!! I’m looking to do a LS 5.3 swap
Fasho u can do it
YOUR MC IS LOOKIN' CLEAN BRUH!!! I REALLY LIKE THE RIMS!!!
You didn’t add in the Febreeze vent clips. 😂
Good wool, fam! Nice to see a realistic build with a realistic price tag!!!
You are going to need angled spark plug wires. They might burn on the headers.
Beautiful build , love the wheels too
Nice job. I would suggest find an alternative for that cable stop it will leave u stranded
thank you for the deep look and information, I'm getting my nerve up to do a swap.

Hell yeah I like your style. I love this thing man. Thanks for the video
Yessir, great savings and a great build as well as ride playa.
Nothing like a real working man budget no knock to the guy with big money but I like this way more feasible salute king

Nice build! Keep up the good work!
looks good man congrats on the sweet ride
Nice break down my guy!
Thank you bro I'm thinking of doing this to my buick regal
Clean build can’t wait to see it on the town
I would personally stay away from amazon and ebay parts, but its a decent build.
lil scared about the routing of the upper radiator hose and the plug wire on the headers, but if it works, man, have fun with it. beautiful car.
Not a race car but I know she got some get up off me in her👍👍 almost the same setup in my 79 Regal
Reliable, never floods, more power, more mpg (even with a cam) better cruising with the 4l60. Money well spent
Congratulations 🎊🎈🍾 you inspired me as well
Thanks a lot
Them wheels😍. Can’t wait to get mine soon..
Are those spark plug wires resting against the headers? If so that will definitely cause a misfire eventually. Nice setup and i love the car and what you did with it. Congrats
No but they are close on video they look like they sitting on it but I’ll get some different ones
Sick man! Thanks for doing a cost breakdown.
Upper rad hose touching air intake piping will heat the air is coming in to your motor might result in a little drop in hp
Excellent job.. Whats up with the tac though?
It don’t work with that setup I can probably make it work tho
Good job💯💯💯.. Put the temperature sensor in the engine.
It is in on the side
Nice work bro, keep it up. The MC looking good 👍🏽
