Max! I’m doing this same exact thing to my dads old obs . Already straight axles the truck and had it road worthy but tore it back down to do this swap . Do you have the push button 4x4 module ? Trying to figure out wiring on it due to having to cut wiring harness from doner truck right at firewall

I’d like you to go a little more in depth on getting the instrument cluster working I have a 1990 aswell with a 5.3 swap. People I bought it from had panel all ripped out and an iPad in its place. I went to junk yard and got an oem cluster for my truck. I would love some a little more in depth help on getting this to work

Facts brother 😂

I know this video is a year old, but I had to say. Thank you for making it. Lots of great information for the swap in one video under 10 mins. The way you went about it is very easy, logical, but intelligent & intentional.

Solid video brotha ... my 97 k1500 needs some love and this is inspiring

Great video with a lot of great explanation of what you did. KILLER looking truck!

Good job buddy I love how you actually explain YOUR way of "making it work" which is exactly what some of us are very interested in seeing. Especially with keeping the 4wd working. Keep up the good work man and good job on this build 🤟

Clean job, I did something similar, I highly recommend Detroit true track, I went with 488 but my truck's not lowered it's lifted 9" if I can piggy back your channel for a second, I paid $2,500 for a 2004 Chevy 2500 HD. Sold my blown up tb350 and miscellaneous part off the 2004, so instead of paying $2,500 for a 6.0 on line or something. I only have $750 in a 6.0 4l80e , and the front and rear differentials that haven't been installed, 14 bolt full float disc brake, and a much beefier front differential. Point is sometimes it's cheaper just to buy the whole vehicle. What I want to see, how excited you are after you put a cam in it, I suggest Brian Tooley racing truck Norris or hot rod 👍

Mind me asking how did you connect the t case to the LS harness to the Ecu or how do I get the wiring done on the obs T case with the new LS harness to give it power I also have a manual T case with a floor shifter

Do you have a part number by chance for the 454 radiator?? Can’t see it on your list due to the “next” video tag sitting in the way.

A rabbit hole of videos got me , quick question what c notch and air bags did you use for your k 1500 ?

Did you keep factory truck oil pan? Have to notch frame?

Can you go details about how you got the speed to work

How did you get the 4x4 to work what wiring diagram did you use

what size of serpentine belt you use i got the same brackets for mine

Mine still has the factory tbi fuel pump, do you think that’s enough fuel pressure for a ls swap

What makes the T code block an easier swap? Looking to do a similar setup on my 90'

I’m sure you’ve answered it already, but what’s the color code? Love that paint.

I have a1990 chev 4whl want to swap the Eng trans to LS what kind of money after the Eng and trans can I expect?

Can we see the shift cable on the trans? I also have a 4l80e on my obs truck

I have a 92 1 ton OBS I’m swapping Same trans 4l80e Would love to know what you did with the fuel system ? Swap internal pumps ? And which oil pan you used to clear the differential up front

Amazing job how u get the volt gauge to work

What made you decide a 5.3 rather than a 6.0 Would it be the same with a 6.0

What headers did you use just making sure I get the right ones for my build

Hi my man I need some help to lower my truck, I’ve 98 Silverado k1500 and I want to know the exactly Belltech parts to lower my truck, I did a quick search and I figured the all 4wd truck can lower only 2/2 by belltech kits, is there any parts can install to lower the truck more than 2/2 from the front and back?

Hey Max what color code blue did you use on this obs truck ?

How did you get the cosmis in the 5x127 bolt pattern

What’s the specs on the wheels and tires? Got a lowered 93 k1500 rcsb and am wanting to run 22s but not sure which size to go!

Then you come to the right place

How much total are you in for the ls swap and keeping the 4x4?

What headers are you running?

I have another possition AC on my engine 5.3 Suburban, and cant put in 5.3 in Silverado Ext cab Silverado 1990

What brand and size of airbags did you put on your truck? Sounds like I'm going through the same problems you have already gone through doing a C-notch on a 4x4. Thanks in advance.

What u use for fuel pump n lines

Can you explain the t model vin?

So I'm guessing there's no way to keep the modern transmission and make it work with your 4x4? I'm looking at keeping my 350 and trying to do the sonnax 2.84 gear swap in my 4l60E but if the cost of that could afford me an LS swap then that's what I'll have to do but I still want to keep my four-wheel. drive and get better gear ratios obviously.

We are building one now nv4500 4x4 5speed just put the ls 3 gen waiting on the wiring harness. It’s easy to turn a 2000 dollar truck turn it into a 7500 dollar truck. I’m about to build one and sale it. I’m a ford mustang gt guy but I know what people want, not many can drive a mustang you have to ride it with respect. They don’t call it a mustang for nothing they know what they was doing.

Thank you for this video. I am in the midst of transplanting an 06' yukon LM7 826 heads, auto trans 4l65e i think. , and I have the entire Yukon intact and running .. so I have fuse block , ecm, accelator pedal, all wiring, exhaust, sensors, air box, radiator,etc. The yukon slt has the 4:10 gearing so I may use the front and rear axels at a later day .....way....way down the road. And like you just going stock to start with stock tune. And initially just the engine....but now My Question is :: is it easier to swap the Yukon tranny and engine all in one swap....rather than just the motor as I planned to begin with. Reason my 4l60e died and somebody stole the new tranny I had to replace it Its all going into my 94' k1500 4x4, ext cab z71, currently with 5.7, broken 4l60e and 3:73 gears thanks for the info in this video. It has already helped me. God Bless

There is a factory harness that runs from the front axel and actuator to the t case shifter in the floor. I used that and cut out the purple tcc wire. That wires is used so you can’t lock the converter in 4x4 low I believe. I never plan on using 4 low in this truck
