1969 Camaro LS3 Swap Gets a Brain: Holley Terminator X Max!

Finally back on the 69 Camaro! With most of the mechanicals sorted its time to get to work wiring the Holley Terminator X Max. Lots of progress made and we even crank it over! Lots more coming on this car. getting excited to hear it run!

[@iamrichrocker]

what i like about you Chris, is that you are a measure twice cut once craftsman..well thought out, organized..and encounter few problems due to those traits..you deserve so many more subs, but they will add up with this great content..the 60s Camaros were just killer..

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Thanks!

[@jesusleal1496]

Most satisfying feeling! Can’t wait to hear that baby crank! Freaking amazing!

[@nuce79]

Damn dude your automotive knowledge and what you can do to an automobile is impressive. By no means am I a mechanical mind but have to say I'm learning alot. Thanks man! Another great video!

[@StebbinsGarage]

Great video! Will be very helpful when I finally get to installing the X Max system in my 92 Firebird project car👍

[@Nightfall68rs]

Awesome, looking forward to first ignition

[@Nickyb801]

You will love the Terminator. You will will want to put it on your z06.

[@CorvetteJoe_204]

Love your channel. I'm studying to become mechanical engineer and it's my dream to someday have a garage like yours. I'm hype for all of your builds! Keep the content coming brotha!

[@ChrisSullivan69]

I am a fellow ME. Keep working at it my man!

[@98Vette]

I’m studying to be an Electrical Engineer and wanting the same !

Thank you great video, was checking for your latest, and was happy to see this one .

Hey, I know you are looking for a dash for the 69 that will go with the Holley Terminator setup. There is a company call Anvil Automotive out here in SO CAL, they make a carbon fiber dash that fits the same year (but for a Nova) that is flat and fits the space perfectly. I have the setup in mine, can send a couple of pics over if you'd like to see it. The only other issue is you would have to use a Nova Dash pad along with it. DSE also makes a metal dash that will fit, without any changes, and I believe it will fit the Holley setup. Have really enjoyed all of your builds, but love the 69, having two myself (one street, one with an F3 Procharger for heads up stuff). Always look forward to the next video. Blessings, Doug.

Love the vids brother, keep them up 🔥

Thanks

Another banger, love this channel 🔥

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Appreciate it!

[@tractorman007houge8]

You’ve done a really nice job on that 69 Camaro but I just think the rally wheels is the ultimate look.

[@sick7camaro482]

I would highly recommend swapping the car harness to a American autowire update harness. If you haven’t yet. Good for the long run. I used the stock 67 harness on my car and I’ve been having electrical problems.

[@richardrupe]

Great Job

[@coreymitchell2756]

VERDY NICE!

[@cooterbrown7681]

Been waiting on this 🙌

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Me too man!

[@trentdawg2832]

I give you less than 1 year before that ls3 intake comes off and you put a supercharger on there…..that’s about as long as it took me!!!

[@aaronxl5366]

Been Waiting !!!!

GREAT JOB CHRIS !! LOOKS LIKE A PAIN IN THE BUTT !! JESSE VIA LAS VEGAS

[@Craigmax929]

Hey Chris I'm putting my ecu under the console as well but wanted to ask where you put you relays for fan, fuel, etc? Thanks

[@cdnbroncolife1889]

I want to know what the green film is called that is draped on the painted panels for protection .. lol.. been trying to google it no luck

[@tsar-bomba2413]

I couldn't really tell if you're going to be soldering the wires together with heat shrink tubing. Crumple connecters are inferior to solder. Just wondering ,great job as always chris

[@ChrisHaroldfreelancewebdesign]

Cool build, thinking about doing something similar. How many man hours do you think you've spent on your latest Camaro so far?

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Hard to say. Just been kind of picking away at it so far. Not too too many

🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@sgtbehrens]

Hey bro, installing the same Holley harness on 68 firebird to my LS2 swap. Can you guide me to where you found the MAT wire schematics at? Its that or hack the harness and get a new sensor. Thx again. Glad you got yours up and running

[@ChrisSullivan69]

I ended up just using the MAT sensor

[@sgtbehrens]

@@ChrisSullivan69 thx, sorry for the late response. Could I bother you for a question on where you wired your neutral Safety Switch wire to? I know the one in the engine bay goes to the starter, but the one inside the car is where I am having an issue finding where it gets wired to? Thx again bro

[@reinaldocruzado8619]

Chris I was just wondering if you could answer the question of what year 4l60e transmission will be supported by the X Max with said trans controller?

[@cliffordsellars8212]

Chris I’m doing the same thing you’re doing I took apart a 2010 SS Camaro to put into a 1st generation Camaro. Have you figured out how the speedometer works with the tr6060?

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Youll need a T56 magnum speedometer sensor. I'm using Holley GPS speed though so I wont be using it.

[@hugopadilla24]

Sup Chris, I’m installing a LSA with Tr6060 manual in a 69 Camaro , I’m not sure if it’s very different then LS3 ur just installed in your camaro. I’m hoping I don’t have to cut the tranny belly

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Should be the same. I massaged a few areas with the hammer. That's it

[@hugopadilla24]

Thanks for getting back to me. Do you have a suggestion on what manual shifter I should get?

[@dalton_carp]

Is the engine from a Camaro SS? Did you use the factory throttle body and factory throttle pedal?

[@ChrisSullivan69]

@@dalton_carp yes, yes and yes

[@dalton_carp]

@@ChrisSullivan69 thank you sir. I have a 1975 dodge dart sport I acquired an LS3/TR6060 from a 2015 Camaro SS. I seen Holley recommends a truck or corvette throttle body, a different part number than the stock Camaro throttle body, and a truck pedal, different than the Camaro pedal. Was curious if someone used the stock ls3 throttle body and pedal. Thank you

[@ChrisSullivan69]

@dalton_carp yeah idk why they recommended that. I had the pedal, so I tried it, and it worked just fine

[@dalton_carp]

@@ChrisSullivan69 thank you sir

[@ezeqkro]

Did you sell the ctsv

[@jcook69camaro]

the MAT is manifold air temp sensor. and of course holley doesn't give you one.

[@jamesguirand8243]

Firssssst

[@kingofthanorth]

Should have bought a hp. If you don’t need trans control

[@ChrisSullivan69]

Drive by wire tho

[@kingofthanorth]

@@ChrisSullivan69 that sucks.
