Travis I'm doing the exact same project you got my dad had a old school 350 Chevrolet in the garage I just yanked out the V6 4.3 L everything is working real fine except for the motor mounts do I need to move the motor mounts forward 4 and 3/8 of an inch Center of motor mount to center of new motor mount or is it from side-to-side that's the only Dimension I don't have confirmed

Awesome ! You’ll need to change the frame mounts to make it all line up. Then you’ll be ready.

[@mikeflaherty6291]

@@DAGOLFER34 so hey Travis, just to be clear, I would use the same engine mounts from the 4.3 but I would need to purchase new frame mounts for a 5.7, then the v8 will bolt right in?

[@fred1706]

What manual transmission and differential oil does it have? I have a 1995 Chevrolet Cheyenne pickup, a 305 tbi 5.0-liter 8-cylinder engine, 238 thousand kilometers and I don't have the vehicle manual. They are the same models from 1988 to 1995.

[@DAGOLFER34]

041 heads and up the compression with a .125 dome top piston. Add EFI and you basically have the same engine as me. Mines nothing special lol

[@patrickallbritten8580]

You have mentioned the gear ratio difference in these trucks a couple of times. Here's an easy way to tell your ratio. Open the glove box and look for the RPO code. For rear axle ratio, look for this: GU6= 3.42. GU4= 3.08 GU2= 2.73 GT4= 3.73 This is from memory from my days as a tech at Chevrolet. Both of your trucks will most likely have one of the first three I listed. Keep up the good work!

[@johnbazemore7038]

John What do you the Muscle Truck timed at and what fueled pressure.

[@DAGOLFER34]

Currently it’s running Holley EFI. Check out my newer videos. It’s 15 degrees of initial timing, 35 at WOT. 58 PSI.

[@MrMrBurnablunt]

How do you do a swap from a 98 chevy with a efi to a carbirated engine how would all that work

[@DAGOLFER34]

1 wire Distributor takes care of that. It just needs power from a key on source. Super easy. Rear bumper is from LMC

[@TerrionCarter]

Going from V6 to V8, have you towed anything? My father-in-law just bought a 92 that was swapped with a 350. Not sure about the transmission or the rear end yet, but I wanted to pull my 86 Camaro with it and wanted to make sure it'll be able to; depending on the rear end.

[@DAGOLFER34]

I’m running a flip kit with no hitch. So I can’t speak for towing. That NV3500 is pretty tough to be honest. Long as you aren’t pulling huge mountain passes you should be fine. I’ve abused mine really bad with the stroker motor and its took it.

[@Long-nd8bq]

Both should be TBI so it's pretty easy. You need the V8 big block frame side mounts. You'll need a trans that can take the V8 abuse (4L80E) and then you'll need the ECU. The front accessory brackets should bolt up but you might need the big block brackets. I'm not sure if the big block frame side engine mounts are the same as the small block or not but they are different than the V6 ones.

Hey Travis, thanks for the awesome videos! I hate to beat a dead horse, but can you clarify on the motor mounts for the v6 to v8 conversion please? You say I will need to change out the v6 frame mounts to a new v8 frame mount, that's fine, they are readily available for purchase. My question is: Will the motor mount half that is currently bolted to the block of the v6 (the engine bracket) work for the v8? I ask because I cannot find anyone who makes a new engine brackets for the v8. Thanks again!!! :)

You’ll need to purchase them online or pull from a donor truck. Then use clamshell mounts like a g body.

[@DAGOLFER34]

Honestly it’s much stiffer... if you’ll use bell techs kit it’s not horrible. Most of ththe stiffness is from the spring rate in the front. Not a lot of change in the back. It’s worth it... you’ll enjoy it

[@obsdude7611]

Travis Campbell Man thank you so much for answering my question. I'm totally on board with it after your comment. I've watched alot of your vids and they are great, you know alot about these trucks!

[@obsdude7611]

Travis Campbell something I forgot to mention, I heard about alot of vibration issues with a 4/6 drop on an extended cab, do you know how true this is? I appreciate you taking the time to answer my first question.

[@DAGOLFER34]

No problem man ! I will admit you might get some shake with the extended cab.. only reason I have a little bit of shake is probably because I’m running such a huge wheel in the back and a small one up front. The pinion shims will help a lot with the pinion angle... one thing I did add that I forgot to mention. Use pinion shims under the rear axle if needed. It helped me out a lot with that vibration.

[@obsdude7611]

Travis Campbell Thank you for the information. That's my worry, I'm going to be doing an ls swap before long and it worries me about the shake. I can lighten the load of shake, but that shake will probably be worse after dropping in an ls3 with the much needed extra power.

[@FaDeDStudios]

Thinking about using a 350 HVAC system and install on my 262 v6. But I’m going to have to use the dash harness. Can I splice the harness from the v8 to the v6?

[@rafatrill]

If u use the same manual transmission with a LS swap everything also works and lines up the only thing is u would need a different clutch and flywheel and throw out bearing most immortal thing u have to use V8 350 clamp style motor mounts and the adapters for the LS are off a 85 Chevy c10 for some odd reason those are the only ones that work unless u pay a arm and leg for adjustable motor mounts

I swapped out my 305 for a 4 bolt 350. I did a ton of tbi mods. I put a 454 tbi body that has bigger ports. Stock tbi ports are 1 5/8" & flows 420 cfm. A 454 tbi has 2" ports & flows about 800 cfm. My 454 tbi was mobbed to 2 1/8" ports & flowed 1100 cfm. It's all about air in & air out. I also opened up the intake to match the 454 tbi ports. Also had shorty gidson headers & 3" y pipe. Got 20-22 mpg depending on how heavy my foot was.

You’ll need to reuse all the stock speed sensor components for the NV3500 and also the factory sensor for oil pressure at the back of the block.

Definitely a nice truck. But you had to do alot since you went with carburated instead of fuel injected. I did a 4.3 to 5.7 vortec in my 98 an all that had to be done was motor mounts computer flash and rewire the injector pins. So really it isn't as much work as you were saying. But no doubt a nice truck. Good job.

My truck is a 94 4.3 vortec throttle body injected truck and I wanna swap it but will I have issues with the wiring because the 94 5.7s weren’t vortec and had a carb.

Those engine mounts are cheap at the parts house, brand new. Also, you may not need "that" rats nest coz you are running HEI distributor with a carburetor & just a fuel pressure regulator & fuel return to RUN your, project. Someone who LSx/LT1, swaps, will "require" more, wiring. In comparing your explanation(s) to that truck & the quality of that, build? Something tells me there's an honest chance you paid somebody to build that, truck? (Most) guys who work on vehicles in a regular basis are more informed about their "parts" and "pieces." The last time I changed frame mounts I paid like 5ish bucks each, new. The clam shell in the engine was like 8ish bucks each. Also 2 different parts stores back in the, 90's. No disrespect intended amongst cat guys. I love your, project. Wait til you get sick of project vehicles. After that, then have children. Otherwise, they will SIT!
