[@stevejohnson8703]

I've got a 68, been wanting to do this to, so big thanks for the motivation. Great show, I didn't see anything that I would change. Killer.

This video is what people should look at and see how hard it is to swap old school engines to modern HP makers. Tyler is covering every base and thinking into the future and doubling down on the making a great car that can be driven everyday and raced on the weekend. Great video. Five stars⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐

[@Frisco_kingz]

I just found your Chanel and I have to figure out the tr6060 instal trans tunnel and clutch cylinder. You have great explanations that are very detailed. Thank you for the content.

[@squidusn71]

Thanks for the PS line items and info.

[@takuacheperformance4740]

Tremendous video my friend! I’m LS swapping a 67 Camaro with same exact mount kit. I love it and will use it again and again! Thanks for the video!

[@joeknowski675]

Currently have a 1970 chevelle with ls3 swap and t56 6-speed transmission. Fitting all of it is easy. The wiring I went with terminator x max from holley and it was plug and play. Hardest part is the money aspect I would totally agree the small things add up. Great video

[@danaowen9014]

The camera was so clear. And great content.

[@sebastien9514]

Your one of the few people that I know of that can work on both cars and bikes that’s actually good at both

[@ClassicOctane]

Thanks!

Video quality is fine. So is that Camaro.

[@Evl_67]

Been dying for this video. Keep up the good work

[@treycurrieba]

Keep up the awesome work!!

[@robbys67rs]

Do you remember what headers you used?

[@JamesPNeal]

Wow you really know your stuff, I didn't know there was so much involved in an LS swap. I'm actually in the market for a 69, found one online with an LS2 already done. But now that I watched your video makes me hesitant if I purchase I might have to deal with costly repairs if things go out compared to a traditional set up. I kinda feel I wish I knew someone to peek at the listing and provide feedback on it. Good detailed video..

[@DoRC]

The best thing to do before starting a big project is get a good reasonable estimate of cost and time and then double both then double the time again. That'll get you close to the actual numbers....

[@jcook69camaro]

painless wiring has the connector for your alternator. what brand and part number header did you use.

[@armandosolis6708]

when you replaced the front oil sump pan what oil pan did you go with? also how did you install the new oil dipstick into the block?

[@macbook802]

If you put a 4 guage crossover wire from the positive terminal to the negative terminal on the battery the alternator will go into automatic balance mode. So the pigtail connector will not be used

[@stevejohnson8703]

So you're saying short the battery out. Ok

[@JoseGutierrez-by5gc]

Did I miss it? But I didn’t see the link for the power steering hoses. I like how you kept stock as possible.

[@freddyjovel2385]

Do you have any pictures of video on how you mounted the fans and radiator to car?

[@joseiturbide4175]

what headers are you using bud? nice build

[@scottmassey4330]

Good video as usual.

[@miguelguerra1816]

What brake booster did you use,Do you have a T56 transmission,and if you do ,did you use the same pedals for the brake and for the slave cylinder ,Thank you really would appreciate the info.

[@hectorcervantes5462]

Question, i have an LS2 as well thats coupled with a T56 already. Can i bolt on the whole thing to the car or is better to separate the engine and T56 and then bolt it on? Would do you suggest?

[@hectorcervantes5462]

Pretty good so far. Question, whats the price range for a LS1 engine and trans?

[@jameswilson1120]

Did you have to cut tunnel for trans

[@xcluded00]

Whats a ball park cost of doing this swap?

[@Fredoman1968]

Great content! What front suspension did you use? Control arms and bushings?

[@matttweed9153]

Super nice car man can I ask what you ended up doing about ur alt. Wiring

[@aaron4757]

What headers are those?

[@49firme]

Have a question Did you use the stock Throwout Bearing for the gto And just add the adapters

[@ClassicOctane]

Yes, stock replacement with the adapters for the bleed line and the line to the master.

[@49firme]

@@ClassicOctane Thanks for the help

[@69camarossrs40]

With the 370 gears what rpm you running on interstate? I thought about going 391

[@bubbacox5130]

How do you like those seats? I just bought some for my 68.

[@69camarossrs40]

Did you go with close or wide ratio t56? And where’d you get yours from?

[@JoseFernandez-tk9ip]

What did you do with the 4 speed you had on the camaro

[@49firme]

Been following your build have a question did the oil pan Holley 302-3 Fit with no issues. And did you have any trouble With the fitment of the transmission in the tunnel

[@ClassicOctane]

Yeah the pan fits great and has a ton of ground clearance. No issues with the tunnel, just the new hole for the shifter.

[@49firme]

@@ClassicOctane Thanks for the info I'm building a 69 as well with a GTO set up Look forward to some more videos. Thanks

[@aaron4757]

You have to cut the windage tray to fit it

[@garymeredith2441]

On your conversion that you did on your Camaro when you put in the T-56 could you have made it fit in the factory hole in the transmission tunnel without modifying at the way you did reason I ask is my 67 Camaro powerglide car and I want to convert it to a 6-speed without modifying the transmission tunnel if you can please send me an email and tell me how can a T-56 be put in a 67 without modifying the transmission Channel and anyway or any shape thank you for help and my name is Gary

[@DillonHuffmanOutdoors]

Great video as always, Taylor. What tires are on that new customer build?

[@AndricLibreSinn]

Did you use an LS Swap kit or no?

[@mshhz]

what 6 idiots gave a thumbs down.... very informative.. thank you

[@jcook69camaro]

looks like the drivers side header is hitting the steering box?

[@ClassicOctane]

No it has about a 1/4 inch clearance.

[@jcook69camaro]

cool are you not concerned about the heat on the steering box? the only reason i'm asking is because i'm getting ready to do the same thing to my 69 camaro and i just want as much info as possible.

[@ClassicOctane]

@@jcook69camaro It's not any closer with these headers than the old SBC headers so hopefully, it won't be an issue.

[@franksilvestri7665]

holly makes a 4 pin part number #197-400

[@omygunny4978]

How much was the total swap cost?

[@mig_migs27]

Awesome work doing a truck motor swap at the moment @migs_69camaro

[@michaelkhmukid]

What oil pan did you use

[@ClassicOctane]

Holley 302-3

[@geoffreyjones2000]

Do you plan on air conditioning sir... southern comfort

[@ClassicOctane]

I do but will probably wait to figure that out in the spring. Out of the budget currently.

[@Spanky_Lugnutz]

Please dont use a tablet it's just so tacky and I hold you in high reguard and yes I know gauges are not cheap but just ugh on the tablet idea

[@opiatool]

What about Autometer gauges as a cheaper alternative to Dakota Digital?
