dear god. getting the same vibes with those LS kits to adapt your cars engine bay to handle it. Heard they have them for a tiny honda civic, and that I might be able to put an LS3-LS9 in it (assuming the frame can handle the weight and I replace many of the other parts). Loved it.

Nie this really interesting and well put together. I wonder if this is easier or more difficult with automatic transmissions where there's no clutch (previously centered) to be used as a guide. This may be onbvius to someone who did it before, but I am only first time in my life in the process of doing this with an auto.

Could you add a spacer between the flywheel and block the same width as the adapter to avoid having to cut such a large opening for the flywheel or would that impact the engine's balance? About to do this in order to mate a 65 Ford 200 ci block to a larger 66 bellhousing. Very informative video.

I’ve got a 2006 Silverado that needs an oil pump. The engine still runs fine until it gets hot and the oil pressure drops. When I install the new oil pump, do I still need to prime it this way even if the engine was running and oiled before?

No, I only did this because I did a cam change and replaced the valve train. You still have oil circulated through the engine

You should draw a line leading into the pattern that you are cutting. Then a line leading away from the part that you cut.

@scantronsgarage28 күн бұрын
The 5.3 I did this repair on is distributor less. No distributor. Therefore the the wiring will be different from an engine with a distributor using one coil pack. Check your coil. that may be the issue

Sorry for how I write. I am Italian and I use Google Translate. Perhaps the relay problem could be caused by the absence of a diode that prevents the induced currents of the coil from returning to the machine. I have a plasma that cuts sheet metal up to 20 millimeters. The user manual says that when you do not use the 1 millimeter nozzle (for small thickness cuts), but you use the 1.2 or 1.3 millimeter nozzle, you must keep it raised by at least a couple of millimeters. This is to avoid damaging the nozzle, the electrode and to improve the quality of the cut. Also in your case, since there is no contact between the nozzle and the piece to be cut, you solve the problem of losing steps in the motors. I hope it can help you.

Cool! to be honest with you, I didn't read the plasma cutter directions. But I will look into this. I would like to improve how this works. Thank you
