In this video I go over my late Grandfather’s El Camino and go over the GM 6.2L Supercharged LT4 crate motor and other parts I ordered for the car. Then me and my brother pull the old motor.

There is a guy named Mitch. Mitch has a Chanel called SWAP TIME. I think he is a very helpful Gen V source.

The LT's use a PWM fan. If you can't find one, Dakota Digital makes a fan controller that along with the BIM will control the fan or fans. I'm using 2 SPAL fans on my LT/L83 swap in my 37 Chev PU.. It will bring the fans on one at a time and also will shut them off at your desired cruising speed.

Dewitts has a good spal controller that uses the special temp sending unit and nothing else! I have on my C6 it works well.

I did a Tremec / LS Swap in my Elco too… A company called Three Pedals makes a clean clutch direct fit Clutch Pedal

@lt4camino 2 жыл бұрын

Man I wish I knew about that company earlier! I ended up doing a universal Willwood clutch pedal, master cylinder and had to make a custom bracket. I’m still not sure if I’m 100% happy with it.

I think maybe electric vacuum pump is needed too for power brakes and such because LT4 doesn’t produce enough engine vacuum

@lt4camino Жыл бұрын

The LT4 has a vacuum port on the intake/throttle body. In the manual the LT4 comes with it says that port is specifically for power brakes. I have a vacuum line ran from that port to the factory brake booster and the brakes work just fine with no issues.

Quick question - Would the LT4 engine fit in, without a hood scoop? Not a fan of the scoop.

@lt4camino Жыл бұрын

Yes, it would clear with a stock hood.

What bracket did you use for the Pcm?

Wheel & Tires specs please

@lt4camino 2 жыл бұрын

I’m not sure what the specs are off the top of my head. I know they are 15” Keystone wheels but I’m not sure what size BF Goodrich tires they are… I’ll take a look next time I’m at the shop!

Sucks family members wait for there love one to die and then they want to do things to there car why not do it when there still alive so they can enjoy it no disrespect but I see this alot..

When my grandfather was alive I was in no position financially to take on a project like this. Not to mention my grandpa probably would have shit himself if he saw me tear apart his car like we did haha This is really my first time doing something like this so my grandfather more than likely would not have trusted me and I can’t say I would blame him. I don’t think anyone realizes how important people are until they are gone and it’s to late. Then all you can do is something in their memory.
