Thank you!! It was a lot of fun

Which parts exactly are u looking for?

Block hugger stainless headers. 2&1/2” pipe to a welded muffler. Nothing beyond at the moment but may change. Thinking not enough back pressure

I certainly appreciate that. I see them for sale quite a bit, I’d be happy to restore another one!

Have you considered a turbskie set up on your dildo? The Chevy cyclone was faster than the corvettes. But a 5.3 is always a good choice

Well I will admit that the ls has no where near the low end torque but it sure gets up to speed a helluva lot quicker

@Prevost8686 The Chevy 292 came out in 1963, while the Ford 300 came out in 1965...

@@Burnside1905 Yes, and from the 300’s introduction it proved to be a far better choice.

@@prevost8686 If I may ask, why so? I don't know much about either

@@Burnside1905 power, torque, reliability and durability. The 300 six was so reliable and durable that there are still hundreds of thousands of them running industrial applications, agricultural applications, and lasted in Ford trucks until the 90s. The 292 just never equaled it in any of those categories. I’m a Chevy truck owner but the 300, especially in fuel injected form, was one of those engine designs that are set apart from others in its class. Kinda like how the LS will go down in history as the greatest small block V8 ever produced.

Absolutely!! We have another coming up for my youngest son. Might send an IDI ford to the moon

Part 2 is comin soon. Have a few bugs to work out

I was. When I started that project I didn’t know much about all the different attachments that was capable of

Well if I’m understanding your question you pull the tin panels off underneath and on the left side to gain access to the orbital valve. If I remember correctly the steering wheel didn’t have to be removed

@@redminiongarage4402 the steering is difficult for me too....think that it's the same problem as yours....the majority say it's the priority Valle🤔

@@TransMaxx the priority valve is definitely a known problem as they can get dirty and shut off flow to orbital valve under dash. The problem I had was the steering would just keep going after release of steering wheel. Your best bet is gonna be to pull em both out for rebuild

Heck ya man! Manual or automatic?

@@redminiongarage4402 Same here I have 3 projects coming and currently in planning and gathering info : 84 c10 auto , 85 k5 4wd and 87 caprice , I'm starting with k5 since it's a complete drive train swap , I'm swapping the axles with nissan patrol 2002 axles and 5.3 or 6 with 6l80 and np240c .

@Red Minion Garage I going the automatic route

It’ll keep up BUT we r getting a lot of clutch chatter now. So we r building a manual shift 4l60e for it for a lil more hwy gear

@@redminiongarage4402 ok good to know. I have a built 350 that’s pushing 450-500 hp but I have a t5 5 speed behind it but I blew it up. I’m rebuilding it now and I’m hoping it’s strong enough to hold and it was just worn out before, but I have a stock 4 speed with the cast iron housing that I’ve heard is indistructible but I have also heard they shift slow which wouldn’t help in any street or drag races. Any thoughts? The t5 shifts pretty fast and let’s me go 85 at 2200 rpms

Haven’t really tried “racing” through gears but I’d imagine having a longer stick throw with heavier gears would make it much slower than the t5. We built the truck for my 16yo son so it’s not supposed to be racing 🤫

As far as durability is concerned that old 4spd is pretty indestructible from my experience with em

@@redminiongarage4402 ok cool thanks for all the info!!!

Nope the front cross member cleared just fine. Only had to weld in different engine mounts

Sm465

Thank you! It’s very rewarding when all the hours spent in the little details come together. They are a neat little machine

Thank you!

Bout 3 months of nights and weekends

@@redminiongarage4402 You did a really good Job! What are you working on now?

@@wisconsindairyboys262 500hp 5.3LS swap into 84 chevy

@@redminiongarage4402 What does the 84 Chevy have in it right now?

And also did you get/do something different with the ending part?

Technically yes I do believe so

@@redminiongarage4402 I saw they were rusted white on it. They could be the set of cultivators off a demonstrator cub which were white though.

Yep it sure is. Was a learning experience for me finding out all the cool features the Cubs had

Perfectblue I am in Wisconsin! Just outside Montello

Well I live in East Troy Wi, any interest in doing it?

@@goaatveing I would potentially be interested depending on your timeline. 608-617-4749

I should. I didn’t throw any of it out

@@redminiongarage4402 I am intrested in purchasing, let me know the price on the module and I will also cover the shipping.

@@TheToolReview ok sounds hereabouts r u located. Although it’s covered the engine is worthless to me and probably end up at scrapyard. So make an offer lol

@@TheToolReview call me 608-617-4749

Thank you!

The original round hole was for the air cleaner stack!

@@countrygent4 that's way out front. If you turn the turbo the original hole in the hood the muffler came through still works

Turning the turbo would’ve been an efficient idea if I had been the one that originally did the swap. Either way I had to fill a hole I guess

@@redminiongarage4402 it all works 👍

Montello wi

I have noticed that with parts of the wire loom from coil and distributor are not used on a diesel my alternator is not working correctly so I’m going to swap it to a gm one wire. Having fun making a mutant is the most important part lol!
