removing and installing torque converter 4l60e ls engine

installing a tci automotive 3000 stall on 5.3 ls mo

[@swervinrigg209]

Add fluid to your torque converter before installing Also stop for converter bolts did not fit It's easier to check fitment size prior to installing

Swervinrigg 209 Gotta grease the engine side and ATF on the trans side of the TC

Very helpful I’m use to older vehicles having that dust cover or whatever under the flywheel my 02 Yukon did not so I wasn’t sure how to go about that. Saved me so much time thank you!!!

[@TheJcrandazzo]

I think very good video and in plain terms .. Very informative and well done explaining step by step illustration ..Every job will have its problems and quirks but you hit the basics pretty good. Thanks

[@beyondmywildestdreams6942]

Awesome bro,thank you for the video

[@richardvandusen720]

Future. On LS flywheels have a pilot hole put that bolt in first you don't have to keep rotating it

[@kyleallen3857]

Amazing that dealership gets $1,200 for this swap

[@RockyRepairs]

Amazing because he didn’t need to lift up a truck, remove a drive shaft, replace seals, lubricate bolts, use a transmission jack under a truck … then also add fluid, run through the gears, test drive it, warranty the work, etc. $1200 sounds fair considering it’s usually $100 hourly rate

[@joecepeda4897]

What about the spacing between the torque converter and flex plate

[@swervinrigg209]

Measure the gap then subtract 1/8 anything thats left thats the gap you have to fill with washers use 1/8size washers if you can

[@joecepeda4897]

Does it matter what material the washer is made of or as long as its 1/8 thickness

[@TXTRUSTUD]

Is there NOT a bolt stud (for the bell housing to the block) in the 1 oclock position? I see one at the top at 12 oclock and one at like 3 oclock. Is it just missing or not needed? At 11:32 you can see what I'm talking about. Thx.

[@swervinrigg209]

Lol dont worry about that one that literally has no bolt or stud for it G.M shenanigans I even went and checked a block I have out here

[@TXTRUSTUD]

@@swervinrigg209 Ha ok, yea it looks shallow on mine too. Looks like there's 2 bolts at the bottom and 5 stud bolts around and then that weird one by the start that is it's own bolt, so 8. Sound right to you? Thx for going and checking your block man. Appreciate it.

[@joshgray2024]

Hold camera correctly i had to stop 1 min in. And also. Those 13mm are studs with 15mm behind them

[@swervinrigg209]

Get used to it or dont watch all my vids are like that

[@danielalfaro4933]

How about the gap between the flywheel n torque converter

[@swervinrigg209]

I think no more than a 1/8

[@lightningsurvivor1432]

So yours had a plastic piece in front of converter, mines got a metal piece?

Not sure what you mean

How much torque converters cost when you doin a ls swap?

[@swervinrigg209]

A stock one not much... but an aftermarket one for a cam swap go anywhere from 3-600 easy
