3 жыл бұрынHOW TO LS SWAP ANY VEHICLE LS Swap Basics and Cost $ !!
So this is the very basics!! When your ls swapping a car I would recommend a lot of research before buying any parts!! And if you really want a part just wait and save better to be happy than buying twice!!

Guy I know had a built ls3 out of a car in his drag truck and boosted it thing maybe lasted a year sitting at around 1200whp. He blew it up 2 days before drag races and had an ls from a truck sitting in his shop he swapped everything over to that engine. I believe it's been running strong for around 4 years now sitting at 1200 as well on a stock block lol

I got an 04 Dakota with a 3.7 and it ran and drove fine until I started doing maintenance on it and kept finding one thing after another to get done. I already have an 06 Chevy I have sitting where I want so now I’m thinking of a hemi or an LS swap for the Dakota. I’m tired of dealing with the 3.7 that’s in it and I want a badass single cab street truck. This was the best explanation for a swap in general. No matter what you’re thinking of doing, the tips you gave are top tier. Glad I came across your video. You gave me more to think about money wise.

Great video man. I think "It's so easy to LS swap" is thrown around too much. A few years ago I bought a salvaged LS3 to swap but man there was so many things I didn't know. It's true they are easy once you learn but the variables between motors and the things you need are info that's often left out. Now i'm looking to do a 6.0 cast iron for a turbo build which is beyond my knowledge but hey I learned to drive stick from KZfaq so there's nothing you can't learn if you're determined enough. Love seeing your projects man, keep it up!

@@GreaserthoughtsGarage I live in Dallas/Fort Worth Texas so even though LS are easy to come by the days of cheap ones are gone but i'm so commited to have LS specific back ups of things. I will say LS swaps become a bitch when you mess with Corvettes because the Y body is a diva with being super specific on things. It's much better to sticking with swapping on older vehicles for sure and on another note you're right about the Holley stuff its super simple to learn and use. I missed out on the Lonestar Throwdown this year so i'm about to check out your coverage next haha.

Ive done a ton of LS Swaps and there are 3 rules that you need to treat as Gospel. 1.) If you get a junkyard dropout, get the Engine, Trans, and Computer together. 2.) DO NOT JUST START BUYING PARTS. You really need to have a plan on what you want the perameters of the motor to do. ITS NOT A SMALL BLOCK CHEVY. 3.) DO NOT use aftermarket heads unless you intend to use aftermarket heads with all clearancing and blueprinting with portmatching. After that its all butter. Remember, DO NOT get rid of your old parts until the motor has at least its first oil change. Even then, sell them at the swap meet. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jNmdlcWmuNednWQ.html

AMEN. Decide how much HP you want. Take your budget and 3x it. Find a competent machine shop in what you want. You're going to make sacrifices. Get your pistons, rods and weight them. Make them the same weight. Have the whole rotating assembly balanced also with clutch if applicable. There is no cheap Swaps unless you just sloppy mechanics it. I highly recommend them.

I used Doug's headers ....I ordered the Doug's LS swap headers for Chevelle....they cost me 600$ but they fit great...everything cleared...didn't have to dent them anywhere to clear anything.....the o2 sensor bungs are in the sides of the headers not on top of the collector like on cheap LS swap headers.....the flange that bolts to the side of the head is nice and thick....and the collectors are a v-band design that requires no gaskets like the crappy old three bolt collector design of other headers.....and the headers came with o2 extension harness and all the hardware needed to install and bolt them on. The bolts and hardware are of nice quality .....the first nly thing I would recommend would be to go ahead and pay the extra cost for ceramic coated. I bought the raw steel and I wish would have got the coated pair because I don't like the way they look in my engine bay only painted black. I should have painted mine white or wrapped them in header wrap.

Everyone is ls swapping everything I figured I would be different. I am happy but could of easily made more from ls for lest but I like standing out. I did my tanks inc tank for the sniper efi. Pay extra for the good sender for fuel guage trust me. I gotta drop mine it leaks when full. Same take as your will be notched corners so tank is deeper to accommodate bigger pump.

Just bought a LS2 and 6 speed trans for 9k. Came out of a 2012 camaro. I have a 67 cadillac deville (2k). I'm installing it into. New to the game. Thank you for your time, very informative. Do you have any favorite sites or vendors you use that you recommend?

Have a 08 tacoma v6 and has 213k miles. Seems to run good still but the day it fails if it does, really want a small block motor. Luckily by then it abd my wrx should be paid in full and with promotions my income should be thousands more a month. So just need to stick it out 2-4 years.

If your vehicle had tank mounted fuel pump you can put a stock LS fuel pump on to your stock pick up that's in your tank now I did it on 85 Chevrolet pickup TBI we even put it on a Ford pickup it had an injected motor in it then took a stock LS pump and adapted it to the Ford tank

Looking into doing a V8 swap on my 2006 Dodge Ram. It currently has the V6. It is still running. Hopefully this gives me enough time to get everything together, so when I get ready to do the swap I will run into the least unforeseen issues. I would like to know which engine you think would be the best to go with. I'm all for doing this on a budget. That being said, ease of installation is my #1 factor for making this swap happen. Take care and have a great day.👍

I'm looking at the Blueprint engines stroker 408 with all the front accessories. I have a TKX 5spd to put behind it. The crate engine comes with controller harness etc. It's about 11.5K not including the trans of course. I'll still need the radiator mounts headers etc. I already installed the Tanks inc baffled EFI tank but will need the in tank fuel pump and return line. I'm not sure if I'm missing anything. Oh and it's going in a 66 Malibu.

I just got my hand on a wrecked truck with the 6.2 just body and frame damage. How hard would it be to put it in a s10 manual? It’s coming out of an automatic. I’m trying to learn but I’m fairly new to car builds. I guess to start I really just wanna get the engine in & be able to drive it then start figuring out upgrades but like I said I have no idea wtf I’m doing lol
