I love the part where you showed how you get your fingers into the adjustable knob
Are these still available?
the guy who makes these makes batches. gotta watch closely to get a set.
Looks like you can get at it from the left side at the high-beam lever and install an oversized pin without having to dissect down through so much of the column: ruclips.net/video/PLoom3cLaPE/видео.html
Good job on this video👍
Made a huge difference in handling on rough backroads. Installed on my 2000 camaro ss. The whole suspension was upgraded and this was the final part.
Hello, is there a reason that the louvers are sticking out versus inward towards the engine? Thank you
no, just a different design. these lovers stick up so it clears my strut tower brace
I think need a set of those wheels for my 4th Camaro that really is 🔥
If all the criticizers had to actually change out the pump every 2 to 3 years due to sorry ass gas.They'd do the same.If ExxonMobil Mobile is cheap gas than what's any better.
gas is very standardized these days. it's more cheap pumps dying than anything.
I’d like to make one of these for my Camaro! Do you have some sort of schematic with measurements for it? I’m gonna be running same LS1/T56 setup
I don't have any measurements. each car is very unique so the exhaust will vary.
@@3rdGenGuy alright, I appreciate the comment anyways!
Nice job in general, I might have tried wrapping the stretchy bathing suit material over the whole thing like they do when building speaker pods. I like seeing the challenges you faced as the pieces crumble apart.
Why watts link over your level lower panhard?
it's explained in my video!
I just realized that wasnt a stock ls1 maf. Whats it from? A truck?
the later LS MAF have the IAT sensor built into it. I believe the later LS1 corvettes used the same 5pin MAF. the early MAF are 3 pin and have a separate IAT sensor.
Hey bro, Thanks for the update on the gas tank removal, I have a 87 pontiac firebird 2.8L and it was a huge problem changing the fuel pump the first time, I don't know why the GM design it this way but is a lot of work doing it.
Maybe a vise that's actually attached to something?
haha, I'm actually making a vice stand. a shop is cutting some 1in thick Inconel plates I have.
Using this video to remove mine tomorrow. Thank you for the amazing details and making this.
Is that 2inch or 3.5 ?
4in, if I remember right
This cover is 90 -92, my 89 has a totally different dash
The headlight switch should be the same 82-92
@@3rdGenGuy I've replaced the headlight switch & the dimmer on the column & still have no dash lights, have any suggestions?
our cars have a few power distribution wires. best to see where power starts and ends. if the switch isn't getting power, find out why.
thankyou for the information
Greetings from Panama 🇵🇦 alguien me podría ayudar ,ando buscando un carburador así como del video

Sir, you don’t know how much this helped me I own a 1998 Cadillac El Dorado and all of a sudden my car started saying starter disabled remove key and I was told it’s my VA system that it doesn’t recognize it. I have the spare key that I have and when I brought the car sir, you help me out so much. I am now able to drive my car, I just have to get this done. I’ve been looking all over. RUclips your video was the one that explained it the best and actually showed how to do it.
shouldn't the link bars be parallel to each other at ride height? looks like the link should be adjusted up
doesn't have to be parallel. as long as they are EQUAL but OPPOSITE angles.
Will this work on a 1997 caddy Deville ? Not sure of the spelling, but you know..
as long has it has the Key with the VATS chip in it.
Please make one on how to remove the dash
I have a video on removing the dash pad. the entire dash actually comes out very easily, I don't have a video on that though.
Is the ACDelco 45c1065 the correct part number for the center link? Thanks in advance. Also, does an IROC use the same steering components?
the AC delco and Moog center link can be used. either is fine. and yes, all 3rd gens use the same steering links.
@@3rdGenGuy Thanks for getting back to me. I have replaced all the components using the Moog parts purchased through Spohn. I am also using Spohn's Bump Steer Kit - 1982-1992 for GM F-Body's. Thanks again.
Love your videos! They've really helped take the intimidation out of doing projects on my car. Thank you!
great video ✌
I really appreciate this video. I have a 1980 Camaro, 5.3/T56 swap. I ordered the ls1 fans on ebay for $116. Thank you for the inspiration.
Good job
Why did you put the proportion valve backwards?
nope, it's correct based on the GM master ports.
It f ING sucks that gm made it a pain in the ass to replace yhd F uel pumps on these 3rd gens
Worked like a charm man!!! I am the one you was worried about the address on!! Thank you so much!!! The M.C bolt holes were slightly off but i am using a Factory replacement aftermarket type Perfection 39838 master cylinder which is an all Aluminum 3/4 Bore nicely built unit from everything i can tell... Doing a 700-R4 conversion, I am putting a TKX in it, and am going to try and use the 87-91 C1500 - S10 type Hydraulic bell-housing and slave setup which clocks it straight up like Tremec wants while retaining the factory style slave etc. I got a Ram #78131 Hydraulic Throw-out bearing as backup just "in case" but i am hoping the bell will work and it looks like it may clear with just light clearencing. Factory had the T5's at a 20*+ angle which is crazy.... Thanks again!
what are the specs on the wheels? what offset? beautiful ride
covered in my video ruclips.net/video/VlAhCQbKnUU/видео.html
Best example online. U literally saved me $300 in labor!!
I need to know the part number for the fitting going to the wilwood proportion valve from the master cylinder. And is it a double flare used?
the picture shows it at 0:00 - 0:27
What injectors did you end up going with?
OEM LS1/6 injectors. the 28.8lb/hr ones are good for over 400rwhp so no need to replace them.
@@3rdGenGuy Thanks
Muchos Grasioso... 3rd Gen Guy for the 'complete' rundown of the fuel filter replacement... I had a couple of the rubber pieces and the plastic sleeve in various positions, and it just didn't want to assemble correctly. a couple of pauses had me realize the rubber 'cushion' went on the top piece, not inline with the filter and the pump. I bow to thee Corolla Guru.
Almost every input, brake, gas, steering, the better driver will be one hundredth of a second quicker and smoother..there’s a lot of inputs.
How much difference the pedel feel from power to manual? I just drive my bird on street primarily but with built motor and vacuum cannister lose power brakes pretty quickly around town
I like manual brakes. but it's not for everyone.
Made it look soo easy 😮😮 😂😂
where did you buy the engine mounts
those are the Holley 82-92 LS mounts.
Love the in-car cam. Seemed fast to me. Any road courses nearby?
I have a few local tracks I occasional go to.
This was very helpful thank you
Just a FYI: you still need to periodically check the bearing preload. especially if you installed new bearings. as new bearings will wear in a bit and the lash will increase.
hi, where I can buy that aligment tool?
they sell em on their website, but they also sell em on amazon. USA product www.saccitycorvette.com/AlignItTools.html
Have you had any luck with the springs or the RPV? I have the same calipers on the rear of my Monte and the knockback made the car undriveable even on the street until I lengthened that slug in the TrueTrac. It's still awful during an autocross.
turns out probably 1/2 the the pad knock-back was caused by my FRONT bearings and hubs. a DRP bearing spacer helped a ton + a 4psi valve + piston springs. I also added 4 of the bigger wilwood anti-knockback springs to the SS4 calipers. added a 2psi anti-drainback valve for the rear. then installed ticker c-clips from TCE performance. & had a thicker true-trak slug machined from titanium. that keeps any rear knockback at bay. it does slightly drag the brakes though, but a mild drawback to deal with. (more brake dust and noise at slower speeds)
@@3rdGenGuyI just saw you responded. I did put some stop tech springs in mine and it helped a lot, but now I have a leak at the piston and the seals are backordered. The 10-psi RPV's didn't do anything. I also welded up my slug for the trutrac and that did help. My calipers rubbed the rotor just like yours. The parking brake is also underwhelming. I'm pretty disappointed with this whole setup for what it cost.
Awesome video, thank you so much. Cant wait to do it to my car😊
Hola los inyectores de v6 y v8 son iguales
No, los inyectores v6, v8 o big block son de diferentes tamaños.
@@3rdGenGuy yo hice un cambio de motora una silverado tenia v6. Y cambie a v8 pero deje el tbi de la v6 montado en el v8. Crees que lo tenga que cambiar?
He leído que la unidad GM 4.3 TBI y la unidad 5.7 TBI son iguales. Sin embargo, la programación de la computadora es diferente. (Estoy usando el traductor de Google, así que lamento si esto suena discordante)
@@3rdGenGuy si se entiende. Muy bien cambiare la computadora
Were you happy with the box? Thinking about getting one
Good street box for sure.
@@3rdGenGuy Thanks
Consider changing the oil cap to a swivel fitting as well. Makes removing the oil cap to add fluid much easier. Otherwise you have to loosen the hose each time
not a bad idea.
