Will a Silverado HD Motor fit in an 80s Corvette? - LS Swapped C4 Corvette Pt. 2

[@Zcypot]

sold my old Subaru and ive been stressing on my C4 build, this video was informative!

[@terryobrien4644]

Love that good humor. Thanks for the tips!

[@TheJMan1K]

Good God do I wish I was as mechanically inclined as you my man. I was thinking about picking up a C4 and pulling the LS out of my Camaro since it’s wrecked but probably just gonna sell it off for parts and drop in a nice carbureted SBC crate motor of some sorts.

[@SneakyZeke]

I’m telling you, there’s nothing you can’t figure out just by watching KZbin videos and looking it up online, the internet is a pretty cool tool.

[@nateking82]

This is looking like the car I just bought. ‘84 with 2003 rebuilt LS twin turbo. Working out the kinks.

[@SneakyZeke]

Awesome, sounds like a fun project

[@wadebonhomme2142]

Didn’t know you don’t have to remove the hood to get the motor in and out, you make that install look easy

[@SneakyZeke]

Probably would make it easier, but take twice as long, and I’m pretty impatient

[@elianperformance5794]

What headers did you use

[@anaverageguy3022]

What did you do to get the engine to fit?

[@ToastiBrosky]

Did you have to do any kind of modification to the cross member? Every forum says something different

[@gregoryjowers3629]

Hey how did you hook up the c beam on the back of the 4L80e transmission

[@TheBlkac1]

They make an adapter that will mount on the back of the transmission.

[@gregoryjowers3629]

@@TheBlkac1 do you have any idea who makes it. I haven’t found one yet

[@angrykiwi6360]

Do you know which year specifically this corvette is?

[@SneakyZeke]

84

[@pmd7771969]

Things to consider, ls ac different, is the radiater in a similar place, how about the power steering pump being different. Does it fit under the hood. Did you use the ls trans, what about driveshaft length. Angle, are the engine mounts made for the c4. What about the heater core, ac being wiped out on the Cowell. Did the steering shaft clear. Exause fitment, headers. Ripping old pc out for new. Etc Major pain stuff. Bloodviking

[@marionthompson7482]

Isn't that called an LS swap.

[@SneakyZeke]

Same thing

[@pmd7771969]

A big block chevy will fit with the same mods the ls needs to the car such as the firewall heater ac core area so why not go with something that has way more power. The sl is about 300 hp replacing the 300 hp lt1 engine Bloodviking

[@tony7948]

Clearly you don’t know much about c4s, the stock 84 crossfire engine, was garbage and barely hit 205-210 hp, the Ls is a no brainer millions time better option that stock, and the 6.0 mad 350-400 hp stock, even more with a $300 cam and stock heads and internals

[@pmd7771969]

There's something to be said about an old school 350 or 400 supercharged motor. I'd rather have done that. So much more simplistic. The amount of computer crap on these cars is ridiculous. Wait till something fails and your sitting on the side of the road. Bloodviking

[@tony7948]

You have nothing but negative stuff to say, dude just stop leaving your annoying opinions around.

[@pmd7771969]

These cars are known to have electrical problems.

[@destruxandexploze2552]

VATs system is like one of the very few electrical issues.
