LSA BRICK SENSOR SETUP.

Please watch: "(2) LSA Swap (Advantages/Disadvantages) Is The LSA Supercharger Worth it?? "
• LSA Swap (Advantages/D... -~-
When installing a LSA, there are 2 MAP and 1 IAT sensor. Terry shows which MAP sensor is needed and which is not, and how to separate the IAT sensor from the MASS to create a IAT connector for the LSA brick... Check it out...

[@jesseraatz6989]

The red sensor on the lid is the map sensor. The one towards the front of the engine reads ambiant air pressure

[@Coverman66]

Jesse your right, im in the middle of doing a video update.. thanks for noticing..

[@PS-ig5xm]

Thank you Terry. As always very good information! You should have your own tv show! Love this KZbin channel.

[@Coverman66]

Much appreciated PS.. thanks for viewing, its all about sharing the knowledge..

[@MendingThings]

I always enjoy your video's Terry, thanks for doing them. I know you have some of your own lingo, like calling the snout a snoot, lol, but you may be confusing some people by referring to the lid as the brick. Most people call the little radiator like heat exchanger in the lid the brick. I am sure you know this but maybe someone reading the comments might not and this may clear things up for them. All the love brother, keep these coming.

[@Coverman66]

much appreciated.. i can see your point.. thanks..

[@MonkeyFabGarage]

Good info. Been thinking about doing this to my volvo wagon

[@Coverman66]

with an LS? of course.. thats will be a sick build..

[@MonkeyFabGarage]

coverman66 yeah. I’ll call it the R.E.O. Swede Wagon hahahahahahaha

[@Coverman66]

lolol very cool.. keep me posted with that build brotha..

[@juiced71]

You just saved someone a lot of time! Great tip terry! One step closer your almost there buddy! 👍

[@Coverman66]

hahah whats good juiced.. whats up in your neck of the woods partner..

[@juiced71]

coverman66 nothing much man your going supercharged and I am going turbo I have a first gen sbc 400 I got a 80mm billet turbo from VS Racing headers are on just made a set of msd wires so they can run under the headers and next week I am hoping to get the turbo piping done once that's done I can hook up the oil feed and return lines and then get the 4 inch piping done from the turbo to the rear axel .. I have an 850 Holley with the hanger18 mods for blow through... Getting there slow but sure

[@freedomfighter1000]

great tips, and no shit I was thinking , what does MAP stand for... i know it would be so easy to look up and understand but just as I was thinking, YOU explained it... really like the simplisity of your vids...Thanks again

[@Coverman66]

much appreciated..

[@OhMar1210]

Love the fact you give details and share information! Sad to say, there's people out there who don't share. 👎🏼

Where would you plug in the vacuum line for the heater/ac vents?? 1970 Cutlass LSX376 B-15 Lsa blower with ZL1 lid 4L80E trans..

[@Coverman66]

whats good TD.. here is a video ive done hooking up the vacuum lines on the LSA to work the vent doors.. simply T into the vacuum line as in the video and running to the stock vaccum ball.. let me know if you have any questions. kzbin.info?o=U&video_id=sMdcaLf5WJw

[@sublazer]

You are the LSA master! When it comes to tuning, are you planning a video on how it's done? I have been successful street tuning my last 3 ls swap projects but they have very minor bolt on's (cold air & long tube headers). It would be insane to see how to tune using the factory computer with this setup. Thank you for your knowledge, and keep on kicking ass bud!

[@Coverman66]

Brotha Robert i would love to, but im having it tuned on a dyno so we can get those real world numbers thanks for viewing and the compliments.. much appreciated.. when might have to talk about tuning one day..

[@feedinc2735]

Good info, Terry. Those Gates 3/4" hoses with 90 degree bends really clean up the plumbing along with some Billet Specialties hose separators. But hold up man... You're gonna do a TBSS next? You've got too many projects! Make me a deal on one of those classics so you can free up some room!

[@Coverman66]

whats good Feedinc.. thats a good one.. im going to check them out and clean up the compartment when it get it up and running.. thanks for the offer to clear up some space.. i will keep you in mind. lololol

[@feedinc2735]

Worth a shot! Haha

[@roberthanna4400]

That's sweet!!! I'm excited as if it was my my own ride!!!

[@Coverman66]

my man Rob.. thanks buddy.. looking forword to get those numbers..

[@pFbSpecV]

Great info! I was wondering what the top part was called and nice to know the difference now.

[@anthonymontoya6950]

So do you completely remove the two wires from the 5 pin harness and connect to the zl1 harness ? Or do you just splice in to the two wires and leave the pins plugged into the stock harness ?

[@Coverman66]

i worked with Ballenger motorsport to create the Coverman Special. its a simple plug and play harness. check it out www.bmotorsports.com/shop/product_info.php/products_id/4290 www.bmotorsports.com/shop/advanced_search_result.php?x=0&y=0&search_in_description=1&keywords=coverman66 let me know what you think..

[@Icysoles60]

So you cut the AIT wires out of the MAF plug completely, or did you just Y into it with the additional two wires. Sorry for the question I just couldn’t really tell in the vid if they were cut from the actual MAF sensor

[@Coverman66]

i got the connector for the iat and separated the mass and iat and made 2 connectors.. Ballenger makes a connect call the Coverman Special www.bmotorsports.com/shop/advanced_search_result.php?x=0&y=0&search_in_description=1&keywords=coverman

[@Hiflier68]

Hi Terry, your reply was confusing... Are you DELETING the IAD in the MAF, and just using the IAT in the LID ? You’re not using both.

[@shoegod2311]

I was cleaning my supercharger blades with some awesome just giving him a really good scrub to get the carbon off them I noticed that when I spend the pulley my supercharger doesn't spin as fast as before I clean the blades just a little difference is that something to be worried about

[@Coverman66]

whats good Shoe.. sorry for the delay in response.. sometime you have to take a rubber mallet and strike the nose.. the front where the pulley attaches to the blower.. if it gently but firm to remove anything that got caught in the gears.. you have to do the same thing when you remove and replace the isolator to re seat the lobes.. keep me posted on the build brotha..

[@shoegod2311]

Thanks appreciate it brother I will keep you updated on my build

[@shoegod2311]

I'm running an LSA on a 5.3 on my wiring harness will the connector for the map sensor work

[@Coverman66]

on the intake of the 5.3 there is a connector for the map sensor.. it should click in the map sensor that comes with the brick.

[@jesseraatz6989]

coverman66 i needed an adapter that i found on amazon

[@shoegod2311]

Do you have the part number for that manifold sensor pigtail

[@Coverman66]

hmmm i think i might of thrown it away..if i come across it i will sent it to you, in the mean time call Barringer and tell them what you have and they will send you the right connector.. thanks

[@ballengermotorsports]

CONN-85643 -> www.bmotorsports.com/shop/product_info.php/products_id/855 . Butt Connectors CONN-66657 are a good idea too -> www.bmotorsports.com/shop/product_info.php/products_id/421 . Or if you want to do your own terminations, here is the kit instead of pigtail -> www.bmotorsports.com/shop/product_info.php/products_id/850 . We're going to make a PNP setup for this scenario in the next few days and will post here too with that PNP Adapter too.

Another nice vid Bro, Terry can't wait to here it run, will you have to have your pcm retuned?

[@buddyrebel_Garcia]

Hi Terry, I’m doing an LSA SWAP on my 2006 gto. On mine, which ones are the IAT sensor? The colors are different.

[@Coverman66]

what type of maf are you running?

[@buddyrebel_Garcia]

coverman66 I was going to use the gto but I’m not sure if I need to change that..

[@Coverman66]

im using the on from the truck, i think its the same if its a 5 pin maf.

[@buddyrebel_Garcia]

coverman66 hi Terry, I was able to do more research and it turns out the gto IAT wires start from the other side. Also, I was able to find a harness online that is able to connect to the maf and have a separate wire plug to the IAT sensor. Thanks anyway. This video helped a lot.

[@Coverman66]

my pleasure, i had to re route several wire to make them flow better..

[@jtmartin8445]

Hey man i've been watching your videos for the last couple days and i'm impressed lot's of great info keep up the good work !

Great video! We've had some people ask for the parts used here. The pigtail used is CONN-85643 -> www.bmotorsports.com/shop/product_info.php/products_id/855 .

I think it is mandatory for every hot rodder to have a Jegs sticker on his tool box. Correction... on his or her tool box.
