OK I'm 15 minutes into this video and I'm completely convinced this guy could fix/engineer anything. Impressive.

I am most Impressed with your shop. Lots of basic tools that are needed to do a swap start to finish and the talent to work those tools. I also get the feeling your prices are within the average Joes pocket with reliable craftsmanship. I will look forward to watching more videos.

I miss my 79 Z28, t-top Camaro (468cid/ th400), 9.90's in the quarter...!!! And my 72 SS(350cid/ m21 4-speed) corner carver... But due to my 22+ year long heroin addiction, they both 'went away', but I'm now 69+ months sober and am absolutely loving sober life...! Hopefully soon I'll be able to get em back...!!! Thanks, keep up your awesomeness and don't forget to compliment someone today...

That's a very long time to ride those orange capped rockets. I'm glad you made it back to earth my dude. I'm also a former iv user. My thing was speed and opiates, but I was always terrified of H. Suboxone makes it possible for me to have a normal life these days 😊

Some awesome work you do there. I am doing a 70 Camaro LSX swap, building a LS7 wet sump basically. I see you did the drive by cable and was wondering your thoughts about drive by wire vs drive by cable. I like the way you rotated the throttle body, looks like it would be better for cable routing too, even if you didn't do the cruise control. Keep up the good work, love your channel.

@HsPerformanceWi Жыл бұрын

No opposition to drive by wire, just the ecm I was provided. Drivability tuning with larger cams is actually a little easier with drive by wire

Man I just found this video, and you answered so many questions that I had about my LS3/TR6060 swap in my 80 Tran Am. I’ve been scratching the internet for years trying to figure how to come up with a reasonably priced solution for the drive shaft. If you could post a link to the adapter you used I’d sure appreciate it. Also did you have to do anything to make the rear of the Ford drive shaft fit the 10 bolt? Thanks again, you got an easy sub from me, I’d like this video a million times if I could!

swaps usually take me 4-6 weeks with waiting for for parts. sometimes you don't know what you need until you get to a certain point of the build.

Very nice swap! how did you end up securing the shifter? Did you use the weird factory 2 prong things that poke out the back of it? Im at that stage with my Gbody swap.

@HsPerformanceWi 8 ай бұрын

the 2 prongs ended up on top of the floor, and we didnt have the O.E. isolator bushing so i ended up making my own with a thick rubber isolator with molded studs.

So how did you put the console back in after moving the shifter back so far? Or did you remedy that by cutting and shortening the shift linkage?

the owner of the car put 5th gen camaro console and seats in it, shifter lined up perfectly for that
