D100..440..🎉🎉🎉

I like this guy, great videos man I have struggled trying to find information on this because Noone talks about this if something is rebuildable why by a new set and as far as mods go has everyone forgot about jetting carbs back in the day

⁠the LS gods sent me to the right guy. Would you recommend a stock ecu with aftermarket harness for a turbo sbe 5.3 in a 1st gen s10 (HP tuners) or the terminator x max system. Goal is be a 10 second 1/4 mile truck and roll race. Will be going 4l80e with manual valve body. I will also add analog gauges to it. Will be going to someone to tune it. Boost by gear seems real intriguing to use and what not. After all the add ons and extras on either set up. What is the best solution for the $$$$? Thank you in advance if you take the time to answer my question boss.

“ You will probably have electrical problems, ive been chasing them forever”

I prefer Dickens-cider. LOL Hope all is well JR. Happy summer.

Anyone that watched my swap. Knows we are not experts😂😂😂. It was a learning adventure. With lots of times i hated it and wanted to quit. Its part of the fun. Getting into the unknown

These are great JR

My mother always told me, believe half of what you see ,and none of what you hear 60 years ago, that was long before the WWW came along, but it applies well to the Internet. Happy trails.

LOL 🤣🎉

As annoying as this uninformed comment was, I feel no sympathy for someone who hops on the internet to buy an $800 part based off of a comment on the internet. Do your own research and for fucks sake call the company you are thinking of buying something that expensive from. They will let you know if their product works in your application because most companies want a happy customer to brag about the expensive shit they bought working so good. Even more true the smaller the company you buy from in my experience.

The can probably hear it the one my dad has is loud

6 👍's up DWE thank you for sharing 🤗

couldn't agree more! the amount of shit I see on FB daily frustrates the hell out of a fella and most are those stupid fake parts profiles. would love to watch you tear into that scam shit haha also I figured anyone who locks their profile is either a scammer or a fucking retard. Cheers JR and have a great weekend!!

You will probably have electrical problems, ive been chasing them forever

Buy a ford. Stop trying to make chevy look good.

Damn, hell yea, you don't see 440s anymore...and if I remember correctly, RV engines had more torque-y cams in em!

That's what sucks about buying stuff online,if you can't see what you're buying, you don't know what you're getting.. looking good.happy trails

Maybe that's why so many hotrods have the key on the dash...?

I am glad always have a positive mind set and message not just for hot roding but all of life👍

I didnt want to go to the comments after three minutes but that dog looks like a Koala bear.

What did you do on tuning?

Skim is like you ran out of paint and you add water to make it last more but no matter what it’s still skim lol

True

😂😂😂😂

Bet this guy didn't stop at Starbucks for a soy latte before going to the yard.

Keep these coming!

Wow! There should never be any question on the strength of a 4L80/85 transmission. Hannibal has a 4L80 behind his 572 CID big block with a ProCharger F3R-136, controlled by a Holley Dominator and he has been past 3,000 horsepower. He is a drag and drive car and I drive him every chance I get. He has been 1,200 miles of Sick Ward, towing a trailer. I purchased the unit from Jake's Performance of Texas in a Reid Case, but it was a TURD!!! The torque converter failed in only 120 miles. When I tore it down, I found that it was full of unlabeled, Chinese parts! I got with SOINNAX and installed EVERYTHING they made for the 4L80 along with Raybestos Blue Plate Special clutches and Colene Steels and I've had NO transmission issues since November 2023, he's over 1,800 miles at this point. I took Jake's 4 MONTHS to repair that converter, it took Neal Chance Converters 4 DAYS to make me a new one. Some lessons are expensive! That Jake's converter can go to a new home for the price of shipping, I'll never use it!

They like 500 now

Dude, some of the comments im getting lately, people are weird

Thanks Friend!

The master cylinder said no thanks lol

I like this section

👍 no fuse is just an opportunity, an opportunity for more sparks and smoke 😂. Good basic explanation 👍

440?

Gonna be a little bit more if you keep doing that on a 1st start and a cold start.

I wired my 68 LeMans like that, but a bit more involved with fuse blocks and relays to run the high amp stuff. Still really simple and not much is needed just to make it run.

3 👍's up DWE thank you for sharing 🤗

Alfons here. Internet expert. I can do anything better than you. Just tell me how. Youll see.

Time to trade it for a SBC !

Best oil WAS Rotella T4 when it was $12 a gallon. Still use it in pretty much everything, but goddamn has it gotten pricey.

Good to hear from you JR! I'd say, "come back to FB", but I wouldn't wish that nonsense upon anyone haha.

17 👍's up DWE thank you for sharing 🤗

I'm amazed you had an empty lot and it looks cleaner than it does now with a building and you still have all these parts outside

JR ,its not just their fault . these Aholes that want something done for nothing hire these CHILDREN to do a job INSTEAD of taking their stuff to a reputable speed shop and pay the man that knows what he is doing .pisses me off too.im the poor man doing things on my own just trying to have a little nicer than what i already have .

Just looking at that right valve cover thats a no from me dog. Imagine trying to take that off

I'm amazed at how many people offer advice on topics they know very little about, it just amazes me the responses.

first engine swap 5.3 into a 82 C30 shit box . The driveway engineer way , you're my sole inspiration to even try it . your videos are gods work thank you .#HotRodINGLivesOn

Is that in corpus?

I was going to do some of that next week but a storm in the Gulf changed my plans, have a good time, happy trails.

They are 100% a crap motor.
