Wow! Hats off to you and your Dad, nice job! Great job nariating and telling me how and where to get my parts for my 67😁 Your on the right road Son so keep up the good work and you'll treasure the time well spent with your dad! Outstanding Job!
@@kingevanek Yeah believe me I know. My setup came out of a TBSS with 48,000 miles. I had a well known transmission builder tear it apart to look at it and he said it looked brand new on the inside. Heat is the number one killer of these transmissions, so I bought the biggest trans cooler I could find. It has a 3200 PTC converter aka heat generator. I had a 2001 Trans Am with a 3600 PTC and never popped the trans in the 8 years I owned it, so maybe I'll have the same luck with this one!
Nice work ! I really hope that one day I can be able to do something similar with my kids. I'm just getting by at the moment but hoping when tough times are aside I can get a few things to start on my 63 c10. I would like to do the 5.3 swap.
you sir just gained a sub i like how you explain everything you had to do for the swap to work...im working on a 83 c10 myself im ls swapping keep it up sick truck
rich r this one was $1,500 but has about 7k in body in body work in it now, tons of hours in it by me and my dad and friends that have helped and maybe 14-15k in parts
I ordered the TMI door panels, center console, and dash.... it’s all junk. Looks good on the computer screen but my dashboard has the vinyl peeling off and I haven’t even installed it yet. The door panels and center console is made with fiberglass so thin you can see through it. I would recommend building your own or finding a upholstery place. Maybe their seats are ok , I went with something else on those
Your truck is beautiful would you help he with mine I just got my daddy’s 1970 Chevy truck after his passing I’d like memories to pass on it’s in pretty good condition but I’m alittle unsure
Nice truck I've got a 72 c10 that I've had for about 20 years now I'm getting ready to start working on it how did you do the gas tank setup I'm wanting to do the same thing or put the filler in the marker light or taillight
Okay thanks for the reply I really would appreciate it because that's something that I'm really interested in don't want to put the gas tank in the bed want to put it either where you have yours or in my side marker or tail light any help will be very appreciate it
Great looking truck and sounds like it's a bad boy I only wish I could see the total bill for putting it together ..but I'll bet dad has it stashed somewhere ....
Joe Black I’m guessing about 15k. Since this video I have upgraded some stuff out of my pocket and spent about $10k more. I’ll make another video of it this summer or when it warms up outside here in Michigan.
You have a good looking ride and I know how much these things cost it's crazy exspensive if I was your dad I would be proud as he'll of you for doing all that all I meant was not many guys your age would even try to pay the bill on it
Good looking truck, I’m looking to do something similar. What did you use for motor mounts? Did you use the stock frame mounts for the motor mounts to sit on? I see that there is aftermarket stuff out but don’t want to spend money on unnecessary crap
Great looking truck! Color is perfect, thinking the same for my 1972 4x4 Suburban. Looks like a 503 green but I am not sure. Can you provide a paint code?
If it is a 72 it may be 518. That is what it is on the sticker on the glove box door on my 72 c10. It says 518 medium green. gm was wacky with their paint codes. I think 503,533, 518 were the same color just different codes different years.
Stevie Crawford I'm sure but I think for a 67-72, lmc truck lists it in the catalog for my truck and says it's a rear tank conversation when in reality it's a blazer tank and sending unit.
I searched for the coolant flange/adapter to solve the steam vent issue but None of what I was finding looked right. Do you have a part number for what you used? I checked 95-2001 VW Jetta's, A4/S4 but they all look different or I'm just not finding the right part. I'd rather not pay $50 for an aluminum tube with a barb fitting if I can avoid it.
Type Volkswagen coolant pipe into google images and click on the one that looks like mine. I don’t remember the part number but that’s how I found mine after hearing a guy talking about using them
good vid man I have a 67 c-10 step side I am going to do and your vid gave me some food for thought thanks don't know 28 asshats would bother leaving ya a thumbs down but the world is full of turds
Cristian Hernandez the guy that painted the Truck fabbed it up for me. I have zero welding skills lol. But it’s the lmc tank and then a hose from the fender to that
They’re too overpriced cause everybody thinks you need them and don’t really care about a few extra hp. When i boost it eventually I’ll just give it 1 extra psi and make the same power
Thank you! I am trying to keep things as simple and budget friendly as possible, Truck is a 1970 C20 converted to a C10. It was originally manual with no AC but I would like to add AC. Any recommendations? I would like to swap a 5.3 LS engine into it but not sure if I should keep the auto trans most engines come with or swap it to a T56 since the clutch pedal is already there. Thank you for your time.
+Evan's Garage (Evan's Garage) nice i have a 68 long bed im working on going to put 5.7 corvette engine in it i was debating if i was going to shorten the bed but i been looking at your videos and i think im going to keep it long
Beautiful job on your build. I Like seeing projects that aren't high dollar and built right at home.
rlovell383 thank you!
Same here I like builds that the average person can do at home
the nonchalance and frankness is refreshing ma man.. great job with the build!
Wow! Hats off to you and your Dad, nice job! Great job nariating and telling me how and where to get my parts for my 67😁 Your on the right road Son so keep up the good work and you'll treasure the time well spent with your dad! Outstanding Job!
Nice job Evan....thanks for tons of good info on your build and suppliers!
absolutely awesome build, great details and looking forward to checking your updates.
Sharp truck young man. You and your dad did a fantastic job!!
The truck is perfect. I like the fact that you kept the column shift.
Awesome budget build. Keep Trucking
All in All
A real decent looking Ride.
Keep up the Hard work👍👍👍
Sweet build. This would be a cool shop truck since it's a long bed.
Awesome looking truck bud! nice job!
That’s a nice clean truck, you did good with that C10.
I should do something like this...I just stay drunk all the time tho
awesome video.... great job you did well...
Its awesome...nice job
Wow! Sweet Truck!,,,
Thank you for all that info, great video. I'm looking into doing a ls swap on my 71 stepside.
Nice truck by the way,
Ls swap is the way to go
Beautiful truck !
Great job!
Sweet ride boi
Beautiful truck brotha!
Really nice.
CLEAN TRUCK! DOING AN LS ON MY 77 C10
Can't go wrong with a ls swap
real nice job..
Awesome truck! Good video
Love it!
Beautiful truck, what year of blazer did the tank come out of
Very nice clean truck. I'm about 85% finished with my LS swapped 67 C10. Cammed LS2, 4L70, and 12-bolt with Detroit Tru-Trac and Moser axles.
Deadeyedickification thanks man! You may wanna go with a 4l80e on that setup sooner than later
@@kingevanek Yeah believe me I know. My setup came out of a TBSS with 48,000 miles. I had a well known transmission builder tear it apart to look at it and he said it looked brand new on the inside.

Deadeyedickification hopefully it lasts for you
@@kingevanek I hope the same for yours!
Beautiful truck ! I have a 68 like this but NOT quite as nice as this one ! 👍🏻✌
you had me at C10
If you buy a aftermarket Tcm for the 4l60e or did u use a gm tcm
Any clear pics of the hood brace?? I definitely need to do mine
Nice work ! I really hope that one day I can be able to do something similar with my kids. I'm just getting by at the moment but hoping when tough times are aside I can get a few things to start on my 63 c10. I would like to do the 5.3 swap.
nice work on the c10 What kind of motor mount you use
you sir just gained a sub i like how you explain everything you had to do for the swap to work...im working on a 83 c10 myself im ls swapping keep it up sick truck
I didn't read all the comments, but can you tell me who did your body work? I have a 70 c10 cab need corners, rockers and paint done.
Whats the part number on that coolant y pipe?? Could not find it online
Love your truck
Thank you!
Shat u do for engine mounts?
What year blazer fuel tank did you use?
Your so lucky to have one of those trucks. Almost impossible to find in decent shape for under $20k these days
rich r this one was $1,500 but has about 7k in body in body work in it now, tons of hours in it by me and my dad and friends that have helped and maybe 14-15k in parts
I want to do the same, did u get all the gauges working?
Thanks for making me aware of TMI. Now I want a 5k interior in my 71. Lol
Brock Smith lol I just did my whole interior in tmi. Was about 3k
I ordered the TMI door panels, center console, and dash.... it’s all junk. Looks good on the computer screen but my dashboard has the vinyl peeling off and I haven’t even installed it yet. The door panels and center console is made with fiberglass so thin you can see through it. I would recommend building your own or finding a upholstery place. Maybe their seats are ok , I went with something else on those
Nicholas Vodehnal that’s odd, my stuff is great
You should include everything you’ve done with part numbers/locations of this built. It would be helpful for those trying to do the same built.
Your truck is beautiful would you help he with mine I just got my daddy’s 1970 Chevy truck after his passing I’d like memories to pass on it’s in pretty good condition but I’m alittle unsure
Do u know the link for the mirrors?
how hard is the ls swap when it comes to wiring and sensors? what years are the good ls motors? looking to do this to my 52 chevy pickup
adam cesari it was really easy honestly. Just buy a psi harness
What exact LS engine is this ?
Nice truck I've got a 72 c10 that I've had for about 20 years now I'm getting ready to start working on it how did you do the gas tank setup I'm wanting to do the same thing or put the filler in the marker light or taillight
ki lo I get a of questions about the gas tank setup, I’m going to have a video coming up on it shortly
Okay thanks for the reply I really would appreciate it because that's something that I'm really interested in don't want to put the gas tank in the bed want to put it either where you have yours or in my side marker or tail light any help will be very appreciate it
How do you know if you have oil pressure
Great looking truck and sounds like it's a bad boy I only wish I could see the total bill for putting it together ..but I'll bet dad has it stashed somewhere ....
Joe Black I’m guessing about 15k. Since this video I have upgraded some stuff out of my pocket and spent about $10k more. I’ll make another video of it this summer or when it warms up outside here in Michigan.

Nice truck, couple of questions did you use the header gaskets that came with those headers? do you know what part number are those MSD wires? Thanks
No and no
Evan's Garage ok thanx
They make an actual throttle cable bracket for that manifold now.......that is of course looks over function if you wanna spend the $40 for it
I see you ran AC lines from the condenser to the pump. What did you have to do to make hat work?
William Neff this truck doesn’t have ac
Good looking truck, I’m looking to do something similar. What did you use for motor mounts? Did you use the stock frame mounts for the motor mounts to sit on? I see that there is aftermarket stuff out but don’t want to spend money on unnecessary crap
Nicholas Vodehnal dirty dingo sliders with stock mounts attached to them.
Great looking truck! Color is perfect, thinking the same for my 1972 4x4 Suburban. Looks like a 503 green but I am not sure. Can you provide a paint code?
Adam Zintsmaster thanks man! Yea it’s 503
If it is a 72 it may be 518. That is what it is on the sticker on the glove box door on my 72 c10. It says 518 medium green. gm was wacky with their paint codes. I think 503,533, 518 were the same color just different codes different years.
Do u an on just keeping it forever and just always building it cause that would be cool af
That's exactly what I'm doing with it
cool truck man
+WillyDee thanks! More videos to come on it
Did you need the c notch? Assuming you did a 4/6 drop with the 2" drop spindles?
Yes c notch is needed for sure
Hey Evan, do you know what the paint code/paint color for this truck is? this is the exact shade I'm looking to go with on my 71! Thanks!
503 green im 99% sure
Cool truck !! By chance do you know the year Blazer fuel tank you used?
Stevie Crawford I'm sure but I think for a 67-72, lmc truck lists it in the catalog for my truck and says it's a rear tank conversation when in reality it's a blazer tank and sending unit.
Do u have the link to the steering column u got from eBay? Really appreciate if I can get it.
braulio tamayo no I don’t it’s been 4-5 years now since I have bought it
I searched for the coolant flange/adapter to solve the steam vent issue but None of what I was finding looked right. Do you have a part number for what you used?

Type Volkswagen coolant pipe into google images and click on the one that looks like mine. I don’t remember the part number but that’s how I found mine after hearing a guy talking about using them
Thanks! I actually JUST found it. Its part number 1J0121087B - about $5 most places.
WHEN YOU STARTED THE ENGINE, I NOTICED THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE NEVER MOVED. IS THE GAUGE INOPERATIVE (I hope!) ?
2-rail dcc he literally said only the gas gauge works dumbass
is this a 6.0? how do you like that LS hot cam?
It’s a 5.3 but that Cam would work just fine in a 6.0. Yea I like it
What transmission are you running? How did you mount it up? Thank you, sorry for all the questions
Casper0878 4l60e, stock cross member and the energy suspension trans mount every auto parts store has out on the floor
@@kingevanek Nice! Thank you for all the info, really appreciate it!
What about shift linkage from original column to 4l60
good vid man I have a 67 c-10 step side I am going to do and your vid gave me some food for thought thanks don't know 28 asshats would bother leaving ya a thumbs down but the world is full of turds
What kind of gas milage are you getting?
Haven’t paid much attention but the time I did I got about 17 mpg over a tank
Dude quit hating on your shit. Truck is gorgeous
How do you get your fuel filler to get through the fender?
Cristian Hernandez the guy that painted the Truck fabbed it up for me. I have zero welding skills lol. But it’s the lmc tank and then a hose from the fender to that
Evan's Garage oh ok so that tank it’s a side fill correct? Cause I have a tank here but it’s a side fill
+Cristian Hernandez correct
tengo una gmc c10 72 stepside
lol when u get ripped off paying 50 bucks for wires...aint that the truth brother
Why didn’t you go lq9 or lq4?
They’re too overpriced cause everybody thinks you need them and don’t really care about a few extra hp. When i boost it eventually I’ll just give it 1 extra psi and make the same power
Hi saw you a subway Oxford
That’s awesome! You should’ve said what’s up
What mounts did you use?
Casper0878 stock mounts with dirty dingo sliders
Thank you! I am trying to keep things as simple and budget friendly as possible, Truck is a 1970 C20 converted to a C10. It was originally manual with no AC but I would like to add AC.

So you in Oxford Mississippi?
Jermaine Smith flushing Michigan, never heard of oxford Mississippi
is it a long bed
Lance Carter yes, don’t forget to subscribe for more truck videos!
+Evan's Garage (Evan's Garage) nice i have a 68 long bed im working on going to put 5.7 corvette engine in it i was debating if i was going to shorten the bed but i been looking at your videos and i think im going to keep it long
Lance Carter an old gen 1 5.7 Or Lt1 Or ls1?
Nice truck!! Did you have to modify anything to fit those LT headers?
Xuper Productions thanks! No, they are on eBay and actually say they fit ls swapped c10 trucks.
By any chance do you have the link? I was going to go with Doug Thorley since you don't have to grind the frame but they're around $600-700.
Xuper Productions I'll try and find it. I bought them over a year ago
These right here are the same ones I have www.ebay.com/itm/361471364664
Thank you so much!!! Really appreciate it!
Truck is really slick. Don't like the color combination. 👍🏾
