    Nice car. I did the same thing a few years ago. I love it. Lsx is the way to go. Mine is a lq4 6.0 with ls3 heads and 90 mm ls3 intake. Nitrous outlet plate with a 175 hp shot going thru a 4l80 then a Denny’s driveshaft billet carrier bearing to a 9in ford. I abuse it all the time. Probably sprayed 300 lbs of juice thru it. No trouble what so ever. Keep the videos coming!!!!!!!

    Curt Schnitzer - that’s awesome. Thank you! I initially had a single 4 inch exhaust from front to back and it sounded amazing. Sadly my state inspector didn’t appreciate it so now I have to switch it to be less loud. This means I also have to move my fuel pump and filter because I mounted them on the frame on the passenger side where the exhaust runs. So they are now in the way of the dual exhaust. Annnnd that’s what I’m currently working on .

    What Master Cylinder are you using? I put a 5.3 in my 64 Impala SS. Engine didn't come with an intake manifold or many other parts, so carbureted for now. Was cheaper and easier at the time. Anyway another temp fix to get it going was to make my own bracket for #7 coil pack to move away from the master cylinder. would like to go w a duel like yours with a smaller diameter as well. Eventually front disc brakes. You didn't mention your driveshaft either. I'm running a 4L60E w stand alone harness. Had to have my drive shafts cut to fit

    I’m currently using a master cylinder and brake calipers that are for a 72 GTO. The master has a 1 1/8 bore and calipers have a 3 inch bore. I actually swapped back to a bigger brake booster from the 7” because the 7” was not working. I didn’t dig into the problem deeply, but it felt like the engine wasn’t making enough vacuum for the booster. So - I also made a custom ignition coil bracket to work with the bigger booster. My front driveshaft was modified to be the right length for my Muncie 4-speed, but it is actually just a stock length driveshaft for a factory 4-speed car (mine was not).

  • @WiringRescue

    Жыл бұрын

    The LS requires a speed sensor if you have an automatic transmission from what I recall. Mine is a manual, and therefore I don’t use one. That being said, you can buy a speed sensor that goes in between the transmission and the speedo cable. It is a super simple design and apparently works well from what I’m told. Good luck with the 63!!

    EZElk - I sadly don’t have any video of the Impala gas tank. However, I can tell you that I bought a new gas tank, then I welded a small steel plate to the bottom of the new tank. Probably like 3x4 inches. Then I drilled two holes through it and welded two -8AN bungs to it. I only use one, but I figured it would be good to have an extra just in case I turbo the engine and need more fuel. Then up on the passenger side of the gas tank I welded another small steel plate and bung for a fuel return line to hook in. So far - it seems to work! :) The steel plate was just to spread out any force from the fuel line movement. The gas tank is thin and I didn’t want the bung to rip away from the tank.

    It's frustrating watching conflicting info from different peoples swaps. Some people say they bolted in the 99-02 Camaro pan and it was a direct fit, others are cutting and using spacers... I have time to plan, but I swear after mine is done, I will have the only usable well documented guide on how to do this in these cars...

    NFA RC - I totally get it. Honestly with the camaro pan being as close to the frame as it is, it’s worth it to just notch the crossmember and not use spacers. I’d bet the difference is within the rubber motor mounts. Different manufacturers probably use different thicknesses, which accounts for the space vs. no space.

    I TIG welded it all to my tank, because I love doing it, but I'm sure MIG welding would be fine too. Just make sure you test it for leaks before putting it in the car. When I was done, I filled mine with water and let it sit for a day to see if any drips happened. Then when I was sure that it was sealed tight, I coated the entire outside of the tank with POR-15.

    Hi Jeremy, I am also putting a LS in front of a 4 speed Muncie. I am reading conflicting articles on if I need a VSS or not to let the computer know if the vehicle is moving or not. Some articles I read say that you will have idle problems or even stalling without one and other articles say they never had a problem without one. Did you use a VSS on your swap? I was planning on using a GPS speedo so I plugged the manual speedo hole in the side of the transmission. Any guidance is appreciated.

    Sherril Hammonds - my impala does not have a speed sensor, and it idles and drives great. That being said, I also have spoken with several people on the topic who tune these engines and they all recommend adding a speed sensor. Apparently it will make the computer happier and tune more accurately because it has more data to work with. So, I do intend on adding the sensor at some point, probably in the spring. Hope that helps you out!

    Jeremy, very nice video and installation. I have a 1966 Chevelle with a bad 1992 454 Gen 5 engine and a Muncie 4 speed. My Muncie is a 1967 M20. I think that it has the coarser spline front shaft. It has the clutch Z Bar ball on bracket that bolts to a bellhousing bolt. This engine does not have a hole on the engine block either to mount the ball to. Do you think that this bellhousing would bolt up to an LS engine? Wonder if the current 11" clutch and pressure plate would work? Another question for you. Is your Walbro 255 External fuel pump real loud? I am thinking about a Walbro 450 in the tank but that would probably be a lot more work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Subscribed. Thank You Eric

    EZElk - Hello! I am not completely sure, but based on my research, your bellhousing and clutch should work fine. The only thing you will have to sort out as far as mating the two together is the flywheel. You can probably get the same flywheel I did, though you should measure your bellhousing first to be sure it will fit inside. My factory 1964 3 speed Manual bellhousing bolted up to my LS great, but there aren’t any flywheels small enough for the bellhousing that attach to an LS. I had read that a big block bellhousing would have worked fine. That being said, finding a good one was nearly the same price as the LS-Swap bellhousing I ended up buying. My walbro is definitely noticeable with the engine off and the pump on. However, the 4” exhaust I have drowns out everything... so the pump noise is not noticed. You could always start with an external pump (they are cheap and easy) and then go to a fancy in tank pump later on if you are annoyed by the whining. :)
