thank you very much. i think that you closed all my questions about this kind of swap. i got 2004 rcsb with 4.3 and nv3500, so the usage of 4.3 clutch with ls style engines was the main thing. i can’t find anywhere tech proof’s that it won’t fit, only like “nah, get from 4,8” and so on.
Hey i bought a nv3500 from a 4.8 chevy and put it in my 350 90 chevy. Everything bolted up perfect but im wondering where is the long line like the one on you transmission goes bc this new ones dont come with the clutch slave cylinder like the old nv3500?
I like that slave cylinder with the built in braided line; makes connecting to master cylinder soooo much easier. I now will refuse to call the connect, anything but that, maybe a take a week connect; it was aweful.
Beeter olds do you need to use the internal slave cylinder for Ls swap? my 95 Chevy 1500 has the nv3500 trans.w/ external slave cylinder.... will it still work with the 5.3 swap?✌
I am doing the exact same build as you except I'm not going carburated, I was wondering did you have to make any modifications to your drive shaft, and could you explain how I can setup my fuel system, I have the return less fuel rails, thanks in advance I really appreciate all advice and help from anyone.. Ps.. love your videos man you have a slick little truck.
Do you happen to still have the part numbers for the quick disconnects....the a/n fittings you used to mate to stock s10 master....I have a 91 s10 5spd...ty!
How’s the shifter box location compare between the NV3500 and a Camaro T5? I’m seriously considering the NV3500 since my T5 is hurt right now. What’s your thoughts, I hear the NV3500 might be stronger?
HeadFlowInc it’s in the same location as the S10 T5. The 99-04 NV3500 are the strongest and most desirable. They are rated at 325-350ft lbs and have a 3.50 1st compared to the full-size truck 4.03 1st. All In all they are said to be a direct swap to the S10 T5
BEETEROLDS Dang, good thing sheet metal is cheap! 👍 I scored a fresh rebuild zero miles 1968 GTO TH400 with a New B&M 2400 Converter $340.00! It was a true Christmas Miracle🎄😇
HeadFlowInc i would say so lol I’ll be making a cover out of sheet metal and I’ll seam seal it. Probably cover the hole with a cup holder too. At least I can scoot the center console back a few inches I’d hate to have to remove it altogether :/
BEETEROLDS Sounds like a good plan! I’ll need to seal the hole from the T-5 phase; I’d like to find a console! It truly sucks not having cup holders! 👍👍👍
Thanks for the info very useful. I've looked around and I haven't found too much info on that. The 04-05 Silverado 2500 with the manual transmission had an NV4500 and used the same Sachs flywheel NFW1050 as the 4.8. I'm bolting an NV3500 to a LQ4 and I'd like a clutch a little more stout than one out of the 4.8. Since they both used the same flywheel, do you think I could use the clutch from a 6.0? Thanks in advance!
I just bought a 97 s10. Has a 4.3 vortec and is manual. Paid $250 the motor is blown, previous owner said the clutch was replaced 5 months before motor blew. Would I still need all 4.8 clutch/pressure plate ect. Or would I be able to use the clutch already in the car?
I have a 2002 chevy s10 and wanted to covert it to manual trans but on the fire wall there is no provision for clutch master cylinder. Any info would help
Where did you get your information what flywheel clutch I just recently bought a LS1 Camaro I have a 99 Silverado NV 3500 V8 transmission need to know what kind of flywheel and clutch can I use
Basically the 4.8 silverado came with an nv3500 I just used the parts for that application and it worked like a charm. Even the Hummer pan had a bolt boss for the bottom mounting hole for the trans too. Kinda nice
Is the Clutch and Slave the same on a 00 sierra 4.3 nv3500? I'm looking to swap my sierra to a 4.8 but idk what parts to buy since my truck originally came with the nv3500 , will i have to buy a different clutch and throwout bearing or will they fit the 4.8?
What's the torque rating for that clutch? I'm doing the same swap in a 02 S10 an my 5.3 will be around 425hp/tq. So I'm curious if that Sachs kit will hold that amount.....
Jeremy Brewer well the way I look at it is this kit was designed for a V8 rated at 305ftlbs used in a 4800-5500lb truck. Our trucks weigh 27-3500lbs respectively so I don’t see why it won’t hold. I would go with the LUK kit personally. I guess we will find out if it holds or not lol
Do you think a nv1500 will hold up to a 5.3 I got one for my 07 Silverado and I will be doing the swap soon I was just wondering if I should look for a nv3500 instead
Interesting question; I have the same one. I just bought a 98 S10 with a 2.2 NV1500 setup. Not looking to build a world beater just thinking about an stock LS for it eventually and wondering how well the stock drivetrain would hold up.
I have a 1994 s10 I'm doing an ls swap on , I have the external slave s10 nv3500 looking to swap front half like you did , are any special tools required and can you mess something up easily doing it ?
youtubeisfullofspam I honestly don’t understand what you are asking. From analyzing your question I can tell you this much a lot of ppl have problems with an external slave and an LS engine
thanks for the reply, what I'm asking is : is converting the old style nv3500 external slave to internal slave by changing the case easy , or do you need transmission building skills
What clutch master and fitting work with this
thank you very much. i think that you closed all my questions about this kind of swap. i got 2004 rcsb with 4.3 and nv3500, so the usage of 4.3 clutch with ls style engines was the main thing. i can’t find anywhere tech proof’s that it won’t fit, only like “nah, get from 4,8” and so on.
thanks for the update...you sound EXACTLY like my friend Pete!... same voice and mannerism, unbelievable
billy greenhorn Ha! Thanks I️ guess lol
I'm at true patriot myself! You got my sub 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Very good video, i just have a question, what pilot bearing and throwout bearing did u use? Ive seen some people saying to use LS2 pilot bearing
Did you use the same master cylinder on the clutch???
I have a question about the clutch release bearing
Hey i bought a nv3500 from a 4.8 chevy and put it in my 350 90 chevy. Everything bolted up perfect but im wondering where is the long line like the one on you transmission goes bc this new ones dont come with the clutch slave cylinder like the old nv3500?
So just to make sure I heard everything right, 4.8 clutch/flywheel and slave? I thought you had to get a special swap flywheel for this setup
I like that slave cylinder with the built in braided line; makes connecting to master cylinder soooo much easier. I now will refuse to call the connect, anything but that, maybe a take a week connect; it was aweful.
Beeter olds do you need to use the internal slave cylinder for Ls swap? my 95 Chevy 1500 has the nv3500 trans.w/ external slave cylinder.... will it still work with the 5.3 swap?✌

That's a lot of questions. Thanks for the compliment.

It seems that this clutch is no longer available i csnt find it for sale on any websites do you know of another clutch that works?
you could of got the master cylinder from an 06 silverado it comes with adapter for that line
Eric Valadez yes but I wanted to use the early style master and I got the line adapter
Please show us how you install the clutch onto the flywheel.
Kevin Hornbuckle its a fairly standard procedure. Just as you would in any other clutch installation.
What brand is that transmission or, who made it?
Have a question can a lower first gear and lower reverse gear be put in a NV 3500
Grab a NV3500 out of a fullsize truck they are plenty low is

I was actually wrong about the shifter location this trans puts the shifter 4 inches further back towards the tailshaft. I have some cutting to do.

Will this work for a gm 5.7

I don't see why not
A N American National thread . Where do you come up with army navy?
Google search
My transmation 3500 won’t go in fifth gear
Blow trans up yet, or held till now?
Still hanging om
Shift shift boom
I realize this is an old video, but would all the same parts be used if I had a nv3500 out of a 03 1500 with the 4.3?
Yess
I just bought a 97 s10. Has a 4.3 vortec and is manual. Paid $250 the motor is blown, previous owner said the clutch was replaced 5 months before motor blew. Would I still need all 4.8 clutch/pressure plate ect. Or would I be able to use the clutch already in the car?
All I can say try to use what you have.
I have a 2002 chevy s10 and wanted to covert it to manual trans but on the fire wall there is no provision for clutch master cylinder. Any info would help
Get out your drill
Yes read an article where there is a sub firewall
Where did you get your information what flywheel clutch I just recently bought a LS1 Camaro I have a 99 Silverado NV 3500 V8 transmission need to know what kind of flywheel and clutch can I use
I figured it out.
Basically the 4.8 silverado came with an nv3500 I just used the parts for that application and it worked like a charm. Even the Hummer pan had a bolt boss for the bottom mounting hole for the trans too. Kinda nice
Is the Clutch and Slave the same on a 00 sierra 4.3 nv3500? I'm looking to swap my sierra to a 4.8 but idk what parts to buy since my truck originally came with the nv3500 , will i have to buy a different clutch and throwout bearing or will they fit the 4.8?
I made other videos covering this info. The 4.3 stuff except for the trans won't work
BEETEROLDS So basically i would have to buy a 4.8 clutch kit and flywheel correct
What's the torque rating for that clutch? I'm doing the same swap in a 02 S10 an my 5.3 will be around 425hp/tq. So I'm curious if that Sachs kit will hold that amount.....
Jeremy Brewer well the way I look at it is this kit was designed for a V8 rated at 305ftlbs used in a 4800-5500lb truck. Our trucks weigh 27-3500lbs respectively so I don’t see why it won’t hold. I would go with the LUK kit personally. I guess we will find out if it holds or not lol
Do you think a nv1500 will hold up to a 5.3 I got one for my 07 Silverado and I will be doing the swap soon I was just wondering if I should look for a nv3500 instead
Interesting question; I have the same one. I just bought a 98 S10 with a 2.2 NV1500 setup. Not looking to build a world beater just thinking about an stock LS for it eventually and wondering how well the stock drivetrain would hold up.
Austin Knowlton well I just did the swap and so far so good it seems to be holding up pretty good
Did the Pilot bearing work
Like a charm
4:35 mouse
Could it work the same way with the 4.8
Sure would
Thanks for the info was offered a good deal on a 4.8
hows the cutlass been since the fuel injection
TNT PRODUCTIONS running good
I have a 1994 s10 I'm doing an ls swap on , I have the external slave s10 nv3500
looking to swap front half like you did , are any special tools required and can you mess something up easily doing it ?
youtubeisfullofspam I honestly don’t understand what you are asking. From analyzing your question I can tell you this much a lot of ppl have problems with an external slave and an LS engine
thanks for the reply, what I'm asking is :
is converting the old style nv3500 external slave to internal slave by changing the case easy , or do you need transmission building skills
ok thanks , I'm at my junkyard now getting ready to buy it
youtubeisfullofspam be warned if you’re going to put some power behind the earlier units they aren’t as strong
