@@dtperformance256 it’s been a slow project. Two years I’ve had the truck. Lots to be done. And I can’t get motivated to be in the garage with the recents temps we’ve had here, north of Atlanta. 😂 🥶 … was considering starting a YT channel for it. Not much of a camera guy though. Currently researching front rotating assemblies for the LS. Truck is still in one piece but is a garage queen 😅 making my list of to dos. Motor is almost done though.

@chuckg3517 Man In totally understand. I started my channel when I started the build in June 2022 so this year will be 3 years grinding to get the truck completed. Iam in north Alabama so I understand the weather too!! 🥶I am getting close now and plan in having it running in a few more months. I am not a camera guy either. I like to think I am better than when I started, but filming and editing takes a while to learn the tricks of the trade. Not to mention when you film it takes 3 times as long to do something. Film, move the camera, film, say something stupid, re-film, and editing takes awhile. I work a full time job and have to travel some for my work. With a family it takes time. It’s fun though. I hope to learn a lot, teach a little of what I know to help others prevent the mistakes I made, and it’s cool meeting and talking to people on KZbin through videos and comments. Hang in there it will come together.
@djrowe105 күн бұрын
Just watched this and had a few things to help you out. The hole size is dictated by psi of trans and size of stall either NA or Turbo. That range is usually (.110-.150). Set scew can be threaded into nut and placed in vice instead of wood. Always use brass set screws in pump converter feed hole simply because if you need to drill larger hole in future is easier and I have seen hardened set screws crack brittle pump passages. Amazon and eBay sell them from a pair at $5 or 100 pack at $40. The cost of 2-5 hardened drill bits is more the brass screws. The converter feed hole doesn't need drilled out when you use brass either since brass is soft and threads will smash in perfectly made from tap. Plus only run tap down hole like a few threads and it will create a stop for screw like NPT fitting. Last thing to mention is cleaning out pump holes from metal shavings which putting grease on tap will keep some debries on it. I'm thinking of creating a KZbin channel just for transmission work since nowadays seems to be more interest. I had a video 10 years ago but the old shop didn't want recording done during work hours. Now I have my own business so will see about making one now. Good luck with your build!👍🏼
@dtperformance2565 күн бұрын
djrowe10 Man!! Thanks for the information!!! I had thought about using brass but those set screws weren’t readily available when I did this. I will order some and keep them on hand for sure now. That makes a lot more sense to be able to easily drill the hole out. I had a hard time drilling the set screws I had. I even heated one or two and quenched them in oil to retemper the steel where I could drill them. This was after I already drilled one out. I was looking for an easier way to drill them out in the future, but now I will go with brass. You should definitely start your channel back up. If you do, let me know the name and I will subscribe for sure. With the information you have shared with me I am sure everyone else would like to see/hear it as well. Thanks again for watching and sharing your experience in the comments. I am not a transmission guy, but I am learning to be and am enjoying the process. Thanks again!!!!!

@ThaHammieJaassee I think I am missing the gen 3 knock sensor harness, but I have my factory one. I am going to double check before I ask them if they were supposed to send one. before you buy another intake, I seen a great tip from a channel called In The Shop TV. His video is called Fabricated Sheet Metal Intake Manifolds- Should you get one? At 3:31 he shows his map sensor loose and he uses heat shrink to shim out the seal. I bookmarked it just in case I need to do the same. Check it out and I hope this works for you and saves the expense of an intake purchase……unless you need an excuse to get a new intake …lol.

Do the stock wheels fit or do you have to go to a bigger size rim?
@dtperformance256Ай бұрын
@jeffturner9747 My truck had aftermarket 14” wheels that would not fit. To start the wheel has to be at least 15” to even clear the outer dimension of the brake caliper. Blazer 15” I know will fit, as you know these brakes are what Blazers came with from factory. Not sure about stock S10 wheels but if they are 15” they will clear the outer part of the caliper, but might not clear the backside of the wheel if that makes sense. Watch the second part of this video. I had issues with my Weld Pro Star front wheels clearing the front caliper bracket and I used a 1/4” spacer with longer wheel studs. I had guys on KZbin that have done this swap say they have never seen that before so it is definitely depends on what the backspacing of the wheel is. Unfortunately I don’t have that measurement to help you out with. But thank you for watching and asking the question. I hope this helps at least a little.
