5.3 swap almost complete. An apology and a thank you!

[@mazi_nation]

That looks real good man. I just picked up my 5.3l 4l60e three days ago so i will probably have some questions. But the how to video it will flow once you start making it, part numbers and explaining certain situations.

[@jacobdavis1979]

I think what I will do is make a video going around the car showing what mounts, headers, etc. that I used and just point things out here and there. Make that one video. Then make like a part 2 the same thing just a picture slide show with text of part numbers and step by step instructions so people can pause and read if need be. Then in the future im gonna LS swap my stepside I can give steps on fuel injection. I think I can do this lol

[@mazi_nation]

Malibu Jak Sounds like you have it all planned out. Ill be watching. Subscribe so you can see what im doing. You might be able to point me in the right direction before I know it lol

Great swap... Good Job. I'm in the process of doing on in my Monte SS. Can I please get a part # for those header and engine mount plates?

[@jacobdavis1979]

Thank you I appreciate it! I don't have part numbers they were both from ebay. The headers are for an early S10 with an ls swap. The mounts are from car shop inc called 1 inch back plates

[@Bryaniskey]

hey guy what transmission did u use thanks

[@Yellaboimike]

How you regulate the fuel pressure

[@jacobdavis1979]

Mike Lawrence On this setup it was just a cheap Holley regulator you can get at Jegs for $25

[@Ls3guy]

what did you use for a fuel pump

[@mickey6663]

Yea thats my question ?

[@cedzone3]

Did u use the Camaro shorty headers

[@jacobdavis1979]

No. S10 swap headers

[@jimunger6830]

Thank you

[@jacobdavis1979]

No problem

[@antoniowalker5728]

wat that on the radiator

[@jmablaster]

What fuel pump you running?

[@jacobdavis1979]

jmablaster On this setup it was just a Jegs 7 psi inline pump.

[@jmablaster]

Malibu Jak any issues?

[@jacobdavis1979]

jmablaster Definitely not the preferred method. Although it worked fine. In tank is more reliable.

[@jimunger6830]

what year LS is that?

[@jacobdavis1979]

2001

[@check_chaser_tee4699]

2001 5.3 out of what

[@jacobdavis1979]

Travaris Hargrove Silverado

[@check_chaser_tee4699]

Malibu Jak what kind heads are u using

[@jacobdavis1979]

Travaris Hargrove 862s

[@check_chaser_tee4699]

Malibu Jak was it a expensive swap

[@jacobdavis1979]

Travaris Hargrove Not really. It could've been done alot cheaper. I had about $3,000 in this setup. Had I used factory Efi, stock cam, stock converter, I see no reason why it couldn't have been done for $2000 instead of 3. The cam, intake, converter, and carb was the bulk of the budget.

[@atownmajor3120]

why no A/c

[@jacobdavis1979]

No AC "Yet"
