Guess I’ll “live with what you give me”. That seems like a pretty well thought out setup.
Much appreciated, I did a lot of research for it all.
*don't need the lt5 throttle body* just glad to see you back making camaro videos man 👏🏾
I really appreciate your support!
Good job explaining your build...you seem quite content. I decided not to take on the lt4 swap after picking up the SC. Did the math and didn't make sense financially so just doing a lt1 swap into my 67 Camaro. Will be ebaying the lt4. Good luck look forward to seeing more vids!
Your Camaro sounds killer. Nice work👍
Love your Fifty front lower grill. I have a Fifty edition SS and it really makes the front end on the 2016-2018 models pop.
Exactly! I had to have it
Clean car. Doing the same lt4 conversion also. Love the factory look.
Same here! It’s fun confusing everyone at car shows
I have a very similar setup but with flexfuel and meth on e50 its making 950whp. Traction has left the chat lol. Just ordered a 15 inch conversion and drag pack. 8 second street car. Great looking build buddy
@@digztheherb420 950whp? What pulley’s are you running? Definitely making some higher boost but with the meth I can see that. No traction at all; never
Love the build! Can’t wait til I procharge or vortech supercharge mine
Vortech!!
You do good work and are an inspiration to all to keep moving forward 👍
Bravo, my friend! BRAVO!!!!!!😀👍
Many thanks!!
Lookin dope Stan-O-Matic!
Hi, I have a 22 zl1 1le with a auto, and I feel that the 2650 with the 103 is the 1st thing to do. No dis respect!!! The pulley the porting billet lid of the stock (1.7) are almost 1/2 the cost of the Mag and the cooling bricks are still way too small. Love your car and how real you are, really GREAT info!! Thanks
I’m redoing my build after watching all your videos
What you changing it to?
Sick build my guy!! Really like the truck content!
Much appreciated! I love them both; truck content coming soon
Car looks pretty sick with the set up
Thanks!
Super nice car, I'll have to watch the earlier, more detailed video and hear what it all took to get it working. I really, really like those wheels, the are like a cross between Corvette ZR1 and Ferrari F50 wheels.
Thanks for the love on the wheels! They are even better in person!
I just got to the end of the video! I'd love to be entered into the contest! I'm getting a new intake for my 2017 SS Fifty edition soon hopefully! Probably just a LT2 intake or something since I have kids and not a huge amount of disposable income haha. I know you'd probably have to port the snout and RTV it. Thanks for your consideration!
Like and subscribe and you’re entered! That simple. That LT2 manifold is great
Started down this road for a 64 nova build now playing around with the gathering of parts to make it a runner
That will be a sweet setup! Definitely go for it
Drone footage now too.
Another dope video Stan! Your work is greatly appreciated it! Definitely motivational
Man I just try to share the knowledge, use myself as a test dummy. But I appreciate that a lot.
@@Stan1le 🤣🤣🤣
Nice content bro, I did the lt4 swap on my 2017 Camaro SS. I would like to win the lt5 throttle body to put on my build.
Im also doin a LT4 build im deciding on whether to go with and "FoxBody" or an WS6 TranAm.. also doing a 2002 Camaro build with im naming the "CAMMED-ARROW"🤣 Ive been having that name in mind for also 10 years now and I think it's so clever🤷🏾♂️💪🏾
I heard you out on the LT4 conversation not being worth it. So I just bought the LT4 blower this past Saturday 😂
Haha well hopefully you got it for a good deal. But as long as the build is well planned it will all work out for you
I just bought a blower today lol what did you do for the cooling system?
I’m about to make the same financial hurting on my wallet too, LT4 is sitting in my room waiting for the rest of the parts 👍
Jumping down the rabbit hole! Gotta love it
Man awesome build new to your page I see you got GA plates wanted to ask did you get work done here and what not cause this is what I wanna do to my 22 SS 1LE
Thanks for the support! I did entire install myself. Had the motor built by Pro1 in Covington and it was initially tuned by Attitude Street cars then final tuned by LSXperts. Not many shops in GA that will take on this conversion and that’s the key to get it running properly
@@Stan1le that’s what I am
Saying I wanna do it but nervous cause where to go to get it done
@@craig5010 can’t help to much there. The shops in GA are very picky and want to do cookie cutter builds. You can TRY LSXPERTS but just know that they most likely won’t do it and try to get you to go a different direction. Attitude Street cars will do it but they are very backed up right now
Yeah to make the conversation make sense, you have to get the lt4 blower for really cheap, otherwise you might as well get a whipple or something.
That’s it 100%!
I see them for around $1500 on ebay
@@trentdawg2832 that’s the MOST I would recommending on one; hopefully with some extras
Did you entirely swap the engine, or did you just install the LT4 supercharger on your SS?
Both really. It has a fully forged and built LT1. Not a actual LT4 engine but better in all aspects anyway
@@Stan1le amazing
Got an lt4 supercharger for 1800. Looking for just a small boost in power. Would you recommend just getting the $3300 AFM kit and that's all? Again just looking for a Lil reliable boost
whats the cost of the kit?
Love the plate
.love yo car bro.🏁🏁🏁👏🏿👍🏿💪🏿
What kind of expansion tank is that your running and where did you get it? TIA
It’s not really an expansion tank. Just the ADM Performance coolant reservoir needed to fill the coolant circuit for swaps like this. It does hold a small amount of coolant but it’s not really anything beneficial as far as lowering temps
Lt4 swap bros!
Yessir!
i just installed a complete engine from a zl1 into my SS same year as yours, will the transmission need a tune or some work to make it work with a zl1 engine. I have a 8 speed auto
Well I would have recommended a different converter for starters. You can make the 8 speed work but it depends on what you have done with the harness, ECU, and TCM. Basically you need a high level tuner to make it all work depending on the electronics as I mentioned. Your average local tuner won’t be able to handle all the electronics
LT5 TB let’s goooo. 🤣🤣🤣
😊
1LE has the ZL1 high-side fuel pump.
No it doesn’t, just the in tank pump
@@Stan1le I seen in a forum it supposedly had the high side. Maybe they meant in tank (low side).
@@camarochris78 definitely does not. It’s been confirmed on plenty of reliable forums and shops. Plus the two high side pumps do not look the same. I personally have had them side by side and a stock 1LE has a regular LT1 high side pump and the LT4 in tank pump.
@@Stan1le got’cha.
My 2017 2ss Fifty SE could use that TB
Great video about your LT4 swap. What’s your 1/4 mile time?
Just got everything dialed in and I haven’t taken It to the track since it was stock. Not sure what the 1/4 mile time would be. Also not interested in breaking parts 😅
Sick build man!! How many pounds of boost do you think Is safe with stock motor?
Also man what do you think is the best conversion kit on the market right now. I have the lt4 supercharger I have a 18 2SS .
I’ve heard 6-7lbs is safe. With crazy cooling and tuning you can get 9-10lbs. But boost isn’t the factor that breaks stuff in LT1’s, it’s the overall cylinder pressure. You can run higher boost with less timing and be safe, the car will just seem lazy. And thanks for watching
Would it has been less expensive to just drop a complete used LT4 in?
No, that’s worse! If you get every part needed your probably $12-$15k invested because you need the entire engine and trans harness to make that work. Luckily the 1LE ECU can be flashed to a ZL1.
Nice…..it’s like a zl1 at a fraction of the cost
Hit that no lift son!!
I haven’t been on a good road for it yet 😅 but I got you!
@@Stan1le bro I completely get you, it's hard to make a video where you don't think your repeating yourself. I be in the middle of mine and stop like "bruh they gotta know it's a Tahoe by now"
lt1 support lt4 supercharger with stock internal or I need forged pistons?
At stock/low boost levels yes it will be fine.
@@Stan1le thanks man 🤝
Intro is way too long
Procharger might be the better choice
I feel like it is, for the money.
