Your engine hoist has a duck trapped in it.
And square wheels
Came here to see if you would say that.
It sounds more like a goose
*_Hjönk!_*
@@youdontknowme5969you talking to me?😂
i like seeing the work getting done instead of just talking about it. thanks!
I could never do that. To me pulling an engine is like doing a jigsaw puzzle after running the pieces through a blender
It's all about organization and tools. Being able to keep your parts and associated bolts/wires organized and together plus having the right tools and equipment for the job. It's definitely doable, but does look daunting.
It's a lot easier than you might think.
It's one of those things that looks way harder than it is. That harness for example may look like spaghetti but almost every connector is different so it can only plug into the component it came off of and the length of the wires usually leave the connector right where it needs to plug back in. It's just a matter of taking it one step at a time, you get in the zone and it can even become enjoyable.
I was elbows deep under a vw jetta doing a power steering rack, using choice words and pondering life choices that had led me there; the old timer in the next bay looks at me and says 'Skippy, it's just nuts and bolts. Take stuff apart until you can get where you're going'
Honestly pulling a motor is one of the easiest things you can do to a vehicle
Hey Wizard, just keep taking that pile apart peace by peace till the truck is just gone.
Back in the 80s and early 90s, the J.C. Whitney catalog used to have complete kits to convert the GM cars with the unreliable diesel engines to gasoline. Every thing you needed except the engine. It included even a gasoline fuel gauge. Only difference was it did not say diesel. This is reversing the process, without an aftermarket kit.
Actually that was pretty easy if you used an olds gas engine
Excellent informative video! Reminds me of my 1972 Mustang engine swap: Ford 351C to Ford 429CJ ( back in 1976). I was young and strong then. Today's mind has no problem but the body may not.
Your engine hoist sounds like an injured Wildebeest.
Great to see the wizard wrenching a little bit !
And mrs wizard helping wrench too !
Yay, finally an instructional - although I've loved your others. Mrs. Wizard should have kept her back straight when helping with the transmission.
Duramax swap!? First you had my curiosity, but now you have my attention
Single cab short bed to boot as well. That's almost not heard of before. Though I'm pretty sure it has been done.
My first thoughts on seeing this clip with the little crane. That engine and transmission surely must be more than 250kg in weight. I know it's for clearance but the strain and personal damage that could happen are something to be considered here too.
I always TIE a plastic BAG over the transmission tail to stop the floor from getting all messy!!!
Should have gone Cummins. More power. 🧐
bad Wizard ! no safety shoes! i would be sent home for that 😁
1:14 "Following the collapse of the *_Weyland-Yutani Corporation_* sometime in the early 24th century, Walmart bought out the company. However, *_Weyland-Yutani_* eventually reemerged as a powerful corporation following the fall of the United Systems Military."
I'd pay good money for a Duramax in my 2003 Suburban. Ultimate vehicle.
Your hoist sounds like Gary Goosey over on Useless farm!
Your Goose looks like an engine hoist. Lol
Escalade front end would look awesome!
Is it me or is this first time chubby has done any actual manual labor. 😂😂😂
I'd ditch the big late-model wheels, they look out of place on this truck. Factory style wheels would look a lot better, but besides that and the Duramax this truck turned out to be a pretty sweet deal!
This channel has jumped the shark! Stopped being real at least a year ago
Little tip 4 u Mr. Wizzard, take the cheapest cat sand, medium granulate, it's wonderful to suck all that oil off your ground, spread a thin layer, remove, than another one.
You have overloaded the engine hoist. Vortec V8 is 520 lb while the transmission is 187. 707 pounds greatly exceeds the 600 lb. arm you have chosen to use. Maybe that's why the hydraulic cylinder sounds like a duck.
That engine hoist sounds like a bullfrog
woot Wey Yu !
That's right CW! Always bring a towel!
Talk about your major teardowns!!😳
Later dude
Is Wizard an Alien fan?
That t-shirt looks like a Weyland-Yutani shirt. I have something of a collection of Alien-themed t-shirts...
Here's an idea for you Wizard, I'll give it to you for free:
Make similar t-shirts with a W for Wizard, and that says "building better cars."
The litte cherry picker that kinda did. Never seen an engine hoist with emphysema.
👍 👍

Your engine hoist sounds like a bullfrog 🤣
What's with the wizard thing in the middle of the screen? Annoying is what it is. Please will you not use it in the future?
The watermark/logo splash in the middle of the screen is a bit annoying.
That's a 4l60 bud.
now youre putting your sketch logo in the friggen center of the screen. im about done here
Is this the first time we’ve seen wizard actually working on a car?😊
It's a rare occurrence ikr
Don't forget the Dodge Viper
1995 Pontiac TransAm door/window motor.
He changed the oil in that Bentley lol
I've seen many videos of him working.
Nice video but the watermarks are very annoying...
Just when you are concentrating on the video up pops the annoying logo
Please don't put the watermarks in the center.🤨
@@t3ck3r I suspect that was just a mistake.
@@cedhome7945They are starting to have scenes from their videos which have no person in the shot starting to get lifted and used by others as part of their own content.

Awesome video but please stop with the car wizard logo smack in the middle of the screen it takes away from the video, it’s distracting and annoying.
Will Car Wizard finish a project this time? Remember the Cadillac Fleetwood and Oldsmobile diesel V8? Chevelle with Jaguar V12 engine? That bus-cum-RV? Stay tuned!
Thanks for showing the Ad in the middle of the screen 3 times, wouldn't have known otherwise who I was watching.
It's a Chevy. Couldn't you just wait for the engine to fall out all on it's own?
😁😁😁😁😁😁
As per usual TH-camr mechanics getting unreliable vehicles fixing them up and telling us to buy Toyotas and Hondas
Those old chevys are very reliable. Actually better than the tundra of that era. Wasn't until the next generation that the tundra became rock solid
Soon to break 1 million subscribers.!! Absolutely amazing. Keep up the good work. Love your content. So down to earth and humble and "normal". And helping so many people with their cars. Wish I had someone like you nearby here in London. Your honesty is what gets people ship their car's to you from far away. Am genuinely happy for your success both with the shop and the TH-cam channel. Cheers from a Swedish guy living in London 👍😀
Why with spam the channel & shop logos in the middle of the screen every so often? Hope y'all don't make a habbit of that.. It's going to get pretty annoying. 🤷🏻
Just censoring the truck's naughty bits per YT policy...🙄
Those piddle pads, are they sham wow certified?
The Fat Bob Gables has the coolest walk at the karaoke bar. I'd love to see a continuous loop video of him just waddling around on his stubby little legs while singing with me, singing for the years, Aerosmith's DREAM ON.
LOL
My dog 🐶 was very curious about the noise your engine jack was making. 🤣🤣
I would have packed something in the inlets before getting gunk and dirt in them
Fun little fact... I set engines for 6 years at Fort Wayne assembly... We had a 50 sec cycle... Of course we didn't have any body in the way... 😎 😊
I bought a lot of houses there. Virginia raised the minimum wage from $7.25 an hour to $15 an hour. I'm hoping Fort Wayne is one of the next ones.
Very, very nice! What a great team you have! Love to watch you and you're helpers/team members!
Yes! Love the shirt…..building better worlds” Ridley Scott…….
Are you going to have to beef up the front suspension for the Duramax weight difference?
I thought the same. That Duramax probably weighs close to twice what the 4.8 did.
Duh
I'm hoping for dual chrome stacks with flappers.
Nah. Wizard has good taste. He would never.
Soon Wizzard will be rolling coal with the best of 'em!
@@samiam5557 The best of them know better than to roll coal!
When not using the engine hoist, you could rent it out as an elk call!😂 I know you skipped 90% of the work involved, but nice example of doing a one-man (and a bit of woman) engine removal. Thanks, Mr. and Mrs. Wizard!✌️❤️🙂🇨🇦
That wizard/omega watermark popping up every few minutes lol
How about putting a yoke in the transmission after removing the tailshaft BEFORE spilling the dirty oil everywhere, or even consider draining the dead transmission oil first. As a bonus the cooler lines can be taken off the transmission at the same time.
A little concerned that the weight of your long block, accessories and transmission might well have exceeded the 250kg rating on your cherry picker extended full out.
Agreed. The weight of the Vortec is 520 lb., while the 4L80E is 187. 707 pounds on a 600-pound rated section. Perhaps that's why the hydraulic cylinder sounds like a duck.
The Duramax will kill it dead.
Putting your logo in the middle of the screen during the video is very annoying. We know what channel we're watching.
why were the watermarks popping up so often?
Please stop putting your logo in the middle of the screen
PEOPLE ARE SCREEBSHOTING MY CONTANT HOSS
Ok i like your videos... but please stop with the logo in the middle of the frame.
LS delete?
Sir you rock
Reminds me about when I worked for Dad and we used to pull engines in his Auto Recycling Yard…but there we used a lot of cutting instead of unbolting but the process was much the same.
Thank you for reminding me about this process
I hate this project. Selling the Jagelle is/was a mistake. This is as run of the mill as can be; we can see this crap on any of a hundred YT channels.
🤫 Just calm down Karen and smell the petrol ⛽ fumes !.....
@@alancrisp1582Screw you, fairy.
That crane noise is getting saved as my ringtone 😂
I got the last GM truck to come with a manual: 06 RCSB 4.8L 2WD NV3500... Currently at 208K miles and aside from regular maintenance it never needs any major repairs.
These are what I prefer. You actually doing something. I haven’t swapped a power train since 1991. I am toying with the idea now of something similar and like seeing it done with circa 2020 technology. Keep up the good work.
Oh well
I have used cat litter to soak up old oil. Now I use old clothes.
Ah, yes. Fond memories of my errant teens & early 20’s. I’m sure, Working on each others cars is what kept us from going to jail. Lots of beer though
Why don’t you use floor dry/cat litter for absorbing spills? That’s what we used in high school auto mechanics.
Part Deux!! I can see Charlie Sheen doing a Rambo from the engine bay and loading a chicken onto his bow... 0~o
This channel offers first-class instruction in automotive mechanics at the customer level.
Its ALWAYS a damn ground.
Id never be able to reassemble that vehicle.
His engine hoist name should be the jacking duck instead of quaking duck cause it make duck noises for sure 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@ Wizard! I’m loving getting to see you work your magic!
More of this please!
( I had just asked for this on a comment on a recent video! Thank you!!)
Oh Wizard, you made a mess!
These older pick-up trucks are fantastic.
I ❤️ the gmt800 platform
Thats a lot of trust in that 250kg setting
I was cringing the whole time.
keep the bullet holes please
So who is going to do all the wiring necessary to mount this modern engine [note the wiring harness....] to the 1960's Chevelle chassis?
About 10 years ago I had a LBZ DuraMax. Paid $6,000 for it. Only had 35,000. Came out of 2016 Chevy 2500 4x4 that wrecked and rolled over Intended to install in 2017 Z71. Had complete engine and transmission along with wire harness computer and steering wheel. I rented storage space till ready. Month later came back GONE 🤬😡🤬
Love you wizard but that’s a 4l60e in the 05 not. A 80e
I said Im buying a 4l80e. Im junking the 4l60e
@@CarWizard0:25 is what I’m talking about you said blown up 80e
Making me cringe, Wizard. That engine and gearbox would weigh more than 250kg. I’d have put the bolt on the 500kg mark.
Very nice Mr Wizard another great video and lesson !!!! Thanks for sharing keep them coming 😊 love your channel!!
I just bought a 2006 Buick Lucerne CXL last week, it was owned and garage kept by an old lady and then fixed up (new brakes, brake lines, tires) by her son who sold it to me
It only has 43,000 miles on it.
I know it’s the northstar V8 and that has head issues down the line but is there anything else i should watch out for.
The thing is amazing, drives like a dream. The gas mileage sucks but other than that it’s great.
Daniel San gets this many views, way to judge global opinion, build a coal rolling yee-ha truck, pls add chrome stacks, confederate flag bed cover and dont forget chrome airhorns playing Dixie
I'm curious what the Wizard will do to the 4.8L before it goes into the Malibu? I'm always like... you (other TH-camrs) seriously just pulled that thing right out of the donor and then just drop it into the other car? Really? I think I'd want to at least freshen it up a bit right? Pull the heads and oil pan make sure things are in decent shape? It just kills me when I see people just drop them straight in... surely that's not what they're doing right? That's a lot of faith in Joe Bob's maintenance routines! ;-)
Car Wizard we love you, but I think you have stolen a word/s from Ed China on Wheeler Dealers
Actual and Actually , anyone else notice this ?
YOU GOT SOFT HANDS HOSS-SENT FROM HTC EVO
GOBBLES BORTHER
HOORAH
-SENT FROM MY HAMILTON BEACH AIR FRYER
Once you drive that Duramax in a short bed you may never drive another gas truck again. It would be like switching back to non-alcoholic beer.
Saying that engine isn't an LS is the same as saying a Chevy smallblock isn't a chevy smallblock if the block is made of aluminum. It's semantic BS.
Please just put the 4.8L up for sale. Dont put that in the Malibu. Just not worthy of swapping. Its just so inferior.
I pull 5.3s out at the junkyard by myself in 1.5 hours
A big job car wizard. I would prefer to put the same type of engine back in. When ever you put a different kind of engine in a vehicle they never seem to run right !!! You will waste a lot of time and energy and have to make parts fit !!! Good luck 🤞
Nice stuff, Wizard! While you're in there, might as well power wash the whole front section, since it's so caked in dust and stuff.
Also, what's the deal with the lovely green Maserati? Looks quite nice in the background!
Please do away with flashing the logo in the middle of what we are watching. It's very distracting. And we know who we're watching. After the 3rd time I quit watching
