This engine is a 2000. But I think rockauto showed a manual available with the 4.8 all the way back to 99?

@@GEARHEADdezign spacing on 99/2000 will be different. 99/2000 2500 trucks originally bolted to 4L80E has an extended crank. The same spacing as the old small block

When I mocked this one up everything was fine. Was the crank different depending on trans from the factory? Cause the 4.8 came out of an auto truck.

Nv3500 with SBC clutch on LS works

I got a LS with a LT1 t56 saw your other video converting it to work to a LS motor thanks

If you do nv3500 or nv4500 5spd it will be pretty much a direct swap. You'll need a 32 spline transfer case though... Manuals and 2500s got the same tcase. 1500 autos are 27 spline. Pedals obviously and a 5spd tune would be smart. You also have to rewire the neutral safety switch

@@GEARHEADdezign thank you. Anything and everything is much appreciated

That I'm not sure. It's worth looking into

I'm pretty sure I've read the early t56 is a direct swap lengthwise for a 700r4, so should be same as 4l60e

@@GEARHEADdezignwould this be able to go on a awd drive line?

@@EdwinOlguin-ijjjj people have converted the Corvette-style t56 to AWD. There's info on KZfaq if you search

It's coming, backorder is slowing it up. Delivering tmo supposedly

Ok. Uploaded half the intake video. Plenty of stuff to break it in two. Check back for the second half coming soon

No

I actually have a video about this coming out as soon as I get one more measurement.... But. The factory bolted up nv3500s and nv4500s in 2wd and 4wd, so you know they'll fit. I have a zf6 in my truck, that according to my measurements will also work with an LS, and I'm putting an sm465 on a 5.3 for my blazer soon. Just about anything SBC or LS or BBC or Dmax bellhousing bolt pattern can work.

It should bolt up fine and work. They're not super strong but it would work for a cruiser

@GEARHEADdezign what about a saginaw 4 speed? I know where to find both for a reasonable price. Any muncie near me people want twice the price just for the trans without bell housing or shifter and linkage. Then I'm doing the mods for a clutch peddle and so on...I'd probably be in it for 1500 bucks doing a muncie swap. Nearly half what I paid for the car. My th350 is slipping in and out of 3rd though.

Saginaw was factory on some 2F. The Borg Warner T10 is another option

Depending on how hard to drive and how much power you make, a T5 might survive. But the nv3500 I tried in my Beretta was just way too short for the shifter position. T56 is probably your best option. That's what I ended up doing in my Beretta

@@GEARHEADdezign im expecting to be around the 400hp mark with the lt1. Only issue im having is finding a t56 that doesnt cost an arm and a leg.

Yeah 400hp is getting to the point a T5 is gonna be a liability. I pounded the snot out of my t56 at about 420hp and it held up great

The lt1 is 11" clutch with 153 tooth flywheel and BBC is usually 12" clutch with 168. The lt1 bell won't fit over the 168 flywheel

You could convert the t56 to ls1 style (I have a video on that) and use a regular BBC bell and clutch with adapter plate for the t56

Here's the video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l7h3gpliubTDoWQ.htmlsi=KJ8VK5Z4c2Lp8p1k

Yes, to use an LT1 T56 with an LS you have to cover the input shaft, front cover and bell housing to the LS1 style. Which funny enough... I'm doing right now. 🤣

@@GEARHEADdezign did you ever try the smaller 10" flywheel like the lt1 came with? I know the LS flywheel is an inch bigger than the LT flywheel. Looks like it would work if the input shaft length works with the truck bushing.

@@stevenbelue5496 I'm not aware of any small flywheel and starter combination for LS

I bought the nv3500 truck slave cylinder. 2000 Silverado). But LS1 Fbody would also work

M88010

Found it on Rockauto

Yup, pilot bearing, clutch and flywheel from a 4.8 will work no problem. I actually have a new video coming out soon that explains all this stuff a bit better

@@GEARHEADdezign thanks man! I appreciate the reply

@@GEARHEADdezign I’m planning to upload some videos soon also this is my setup for an 85 C10

I just picked up an ls1 trans rebuilt by tick, but it wasn't cheap

@@GEARHEADdezign fuck the way it’s looking looks like I’m gonna have to do that too for my fox there’s some 4l80s also but man everything is sooo expensive !!!

@@StoicVisions I hate autos though, so it's not really an option IMO. I just put up another video with more info on different trans a week or two ago. Show you some more options

Hanlon motorsports also has a 5spd LS swap trans that doesn't look bad

@@GEARHEADdezign I’m thinking 800ish street car so all kinds of options car had a th400 and it was just so boring and undrivsble on the street where most of it’s driving will be
