Good info thank you
Why you didn't show the heat shrinking part only the installation and that music smh
Around 12:50 in the video i show a bit of the shrinking. I admit the music is not good. I've been doing UA-cam videos for a few years now, but don't post very often so I'm still getting my footings. Thank you for watching and your feedback.
Hey brother I’m getting ready to do a 5.3 in my 99 firebird it has a 3800 in it .. but I’m going do the LS swap ..I subscribed also man !! Just saying I might be hitting ya up lol
I’d be happy to help you where I can.
I have a 2015 dodge dart gt this car is awesome
Need better music.lol
You can't say that without giving me some ideas. I thought I had pretty good taste in music. At least from what I can use on UA-cam.
@ScottsChaos I was mostly just joking, but totally thought your son had picked the music...Now that I know he didn't you look more of a Rock/Metal music listener than Dance/Techno. I guess don't judge a book by its cover. Lol good video though
Lmao. I am more of a rock listener. My son however I felt like the music choice fit the video better. My son definitely listens to rap. If you watch some of my other videos there is plenty of rock music. Thank you for watching the video.
Uno y dos 🤣 👏
See that's what had me skeptical on doing the DBW. I wanted that because that's way more up to date.. but ima stick with the cable...
I definitely thought about going to cable but I couldn't let it beat me.
@ScottsChaos you did your thing man! I MIGHT get it since you figured it out.
Was wondering what you have been up to. Glad to see that you’re making progress again.
Slow and steady progress. But progress just the same.
#1 - Just snug the oil pump bolts then spin the pump, with the bolts torqued that pump is not going to move and it could fail. #2 - There are no dowel pins in the covers, get yourself a set of alignment bushings to center the front and rear covers, without them your covers and seals will be offset and wear them out. They are only 15 beans and worth every penny then once the covers are centered and torqued in place install the oil pan and torque that in place. #3 - That idler for the alternator will fail. With the load of the belt on that long bushing and bolt it will snap it right off. FYI - If you're going to use the truck spacing with an earlier F body it will work. I did it on a '88 but I used a LS3 water pump and spaced it out ($20), then I used a stock truck alt./ps mount and just shaved the upper ear off it and added a ICT Billet idler relocation kit, $34 and I was all done. I even used the stock P/S pump with a $15 adaptor for the high pressure line. Easy-Peezy. The only bracket I bought was a high mount A/C compressor kit. I did do a 5.3 in a '86 S10 with the short Corvette spacing, made it easy to fit the engine and rad in but the accessory drive was a challenge and not cheap.
All great information! Thank you. I have been struggling big time with my throttle body so have not uploaded lately. I have also been thinking about using the truck bracket and modifying it for my application.
inch lbs to foot lbs is just divide by 12, so just shy of 9 foot lbs
Thank you!
Mannn thTs wild. I was using the same regulator! I wonder why it didn't have pressure. Love the video.
I have been super absent lately. I’m a terrible UA-camr. lol. My throttle body is kicking my butt.
Yessirrrrre🙏🏿🙏🏿
Would those motor mounts work on a LT1 k member? I see it says 93-02. I want to Ls swap my 93 Z.
As far as I know they’re for the V6 to V8 conversion using the V6 kmember. If you check their website you might find what you need.
Yessirrrrrr been waiting on this!🙏🏿✊🏿 I'll say I need a good 10 min worth of video bro lol
I really wanted to post a longer video. I’m pretty sure I lost a bunch of footage. I am disappointed in my own behavior with this video. But I felt that I needed to get one out.
@ScottsChaos dang. An nahh man. Can't be talking like that. Video was good to me. Just wasn't long enough
@@kurrentracing thank you! I appreciate your words of encouragement. I have another short one coming. lol. Then I’m sure they’ll get longer.
@ScottsChaos np man. You build for it. Just show that confidence bro. And I like the other video too. Your videos might need to be longer cause you get straight to the point which is GOOD! So you can have longer videos🙏🏿 I can't wait till you drop again.
Nice work and good information
Audi's are special in that way. If you start it without the MAF it will give like 20 error codes for a bunch of unrelated things from traction control to ABS, to tire pressure sensors ...
Very true had the same issue one time lol. Had them replace the MAF but I have a feeling it could’ve been cleaned
Yeap it made my tpms light come on
It won't let me do images, but look up "Speed Handle Wrench". It's what you used before battery powered wrenches..
Ah. I just looked. Okay. I get it now. Thank you!
Booo
You don't like it eh?
I just came into possession of a 1991 Monte Carlo myself, I’m having trouble figuring out well… anything about this boat. It’s missing an engine and I can’t seem to find information on engines that will fit. I can’t help but wonder if you might know something? Any engine recommendations?
The engine in mine is a 350 V8. I'm almost positive (well depending on your mechanical ability) you could put an LS in it. I have been toying with the idea of putting one in mine. However I'm in the middle of a firebird build right now so it would be awhile. Is the outdrive on the boat?
@@ScottsChaos There’s like half of an out drive I would say. My boss bought the boat to use as a parts boat as it already had no engine and they didn’t want to pay to scrap it and I have always wanted a boat so I figured it would be a fun project since besides mechanically it’s not in bad shape. There’s no propeller but there is the big housing that a propeller would go in. I am a former helicopter mechanic so I have the mechanic aptitude, but I don’t know much about boats specifically.
If I was in your position I would 100% source a 5.3 liter LS from a junkyard. And put it in there. Just remember to get the PCM wire harness and if a drive by wire get the tac module and throttle pedal.
what did you do before you layed that stuff down? any prep work? hows it holding up?
I cleaned the hell out of it! Wiped it down with Acetone. It held it pretty well. I haven't looked at yet this year. I'll probably do a better follow up video in a couple weeks than I did last year.
@@ScottsChaos ok, im looking too do my ski boat and ill probably have too tear the carpet out, sand the gunk off, and then lay the stuff down. a follow up would be great
The oh hi there lol. Man you took the super hard route with that harness lol could’ve got you a cheap one for about $100 and just had to do only the gauges.
Yes I could have bought a harness but then I wouldn't have had the experience of doing it myself.
In hindsight I should have made the hole in the fender bigger. Oh well, if it bugs me enough I will.
😂😂 man
Painted EVERYTHING 💪🏾 lol you wasnt playing
Nope. Going to paint more too
You gotta drop longer vids mann!
That's a sneak peek. Longer version is coming.
@@ScottsChaos bet! I didn’t know you been posting and you had a 5.3! I got ya notifs on and just now getting that. You gotta IG?
@@kurrentracing I do. But not very active on it. I should be. But I'm not.
@@kurrentracing what do you use IG for?
@@ScottsChaos recognition, promo. Etc. in the long run I want sponsors, so having good social media and something to show for will be good.
I have one of those the bolt screws in from the bottom, then the nut screws from the top compressing the spring.
So did I build the compressor wrong? I didn't get any instructions with my cheap eBay one. Using the socket as a spacer worked great. Threading the bolt in from the bottom and using the nut makes total sense now. Lol. Thank you for watching and for learning me up on that spring compressor.
Yep, I got mine off of Amazon and it took me several attempts before I figured it out. Glad this help.
Hey, at least you figured it out. I just kept doing it wrong. 😂😂
Decent this is. I think you will be interested in smzeus!!!
The LS1 water pump will work with the truck accessories with a pair of 3/4” spacers that mount behind the water pump. Or you could have purchased a 2010 Camaro & up LS3 water pump without the spacers that also line up to the truck accessories.
I researched that and did purchase the spacers as well.
@@ScottsChaos Perfect 👍 you should be Golden once it’s installed.
@@CooKoo707 ha! I'm not going to celebrate just yet. Lol.
@@ScottsChaos lol 😂 no doubt, but you’re off to a helluva start.
Thank you! I really appreciate it.
LS1 water pump is on its way. OBDX pro arrived yesterday. Thank you for watching.
I know China puts out a ton of garbage

use a speed wrench
A speed wrench? Like an impact? I guess I'm not following. But I'd like to. 😂
At a couple spots in the video it seems to pause. I had to forward a couple frames and it played again. If you guys are experiencing this, I apologize.
Looks good so far.
Thank you! I hope it runs good when done. This is the first time I've built an engine. Fingers crossed. Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment.
Good work bruh I been meaning to rebuild my 5.3 and throw a turbo on it but ya know ,hope the rest of the project goes well!
I appreciate your support. I'm going to see if I can get this engine running and go NA for awhile before I think about a turbo. Not that it's being built for one. Lol. I'm also thinking, if I blow this 5.3 I might go up to a 6.0.
Ima tune in and watch all the fbody vids!💪🏾👏🏿
Awesome! Thank you for the support. I see you have a panhard bar video I need to watch. I'm doing all new suspension during this build as well.
As your wife, I love seeing you work on this project. You have proven that you can do just about anything you want to!
Thank you dear! I love that you support me in all that I do.
It was like you really didn’t want anyone to actually see the flooring!
After reading your comment. I went back and watched the video. I can honestly say I understand why you would say that. I have to apologize. I was trying to make a video that was longer than a couple minutes in length but really had no idea on what to video so I just threw it together. I'll strive to do better. I appreciate all of the input here on the channel.
Spoiler adds at least 50 hp
Lol. I don't know about that. He actually just traded the Dart in for a 2013 Audi A4 2.0 turbo. So we will be doing some videos on that car.
Aaaaaaand I bought the dart. 😂😅 small world.
@@jnastyrista my first thought was "that's friggin awesome!" But then I thought "maybe they're joking." If you did buy it, awesome! It's actually a great car. My son really liked it.
@@ScottsChaos nope I for sure bought this car. Lol still has the wing and everything.
That's awesome man! How are you liking it? My son was always told it was the cleanest dart in town.
I used the same on my tracker but added an extra adhesive just in case
I'm pretty sure I tried that the first time I put the eva in. I probably had some really bad product. The spray adhesive I used stuck pretty good. The adhesive on the eva was separating from the eva it self.
I enameled the deck first then put the Eva on the enameled deck haven't had any lift issues.
I thought about sanding the deck smooth and gel coating it black and then laying in some eva. Oh the work that would have been. Obviously, I decided against it.
Where do you put the compressor hose into the system to start blowing out the water?
I have been told I should have included that part in the video. I apologize. I'm still working on being great at UA-cam. You put an adapter I'll link here into the city water connection. I only push about 15 or 20psi into the system. www.ebay.com/itm/293521669327?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=srz703y3RVq&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=fthbkm2wska&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
Nice, where did you get the spoiler from, my son wants one like this for his 2016 Dart,thanks
From the spoiler and wing king www.spoilerandwingking.com/
Thank you and they are only 20mins from where I live
Yoooooo how'd you wire that up? Lol it's freaking awesome
Thank you!! It was actually a bit involved. I had to remove the plugs from the controller and solder on wires so I could mount the controller in the garage. Then just plugged them into an outlet.
All that is great, but you didn't show HOW TO CONNECT THE COMPRESSOR!
Oh man! I'm so sorry. I'm still trying to find my place on this platform and I seem to constantly get ahead of myself. I will do a quick follow-up video this weekend. Again I apologize.
Should be about just the flooring!
I appreciate your input. I'm still learning this UA-cam thing. The channel is Scott's Chaos for a reason. I'm all over the place.
what was the total cost for the eva foam? Im trying to estimate for my 2002 bayliner
I don't remember an exact amount but I'm guessing it was right around 100.00 bucks. It will depend a lot on where you get it and the brand you get. This stuff is pretty inexpensive but it in no way compares to the name brand stuff. Although, I have had good luck with it. As with anything. Prep is key.
Amazing dad!
I have amazing children. I didn't get an opportunity to learn how to do these things from my Dad and I vowed to be the best one I could. Your comment is the best thing I could have come across today. Thank you so much!
Like your opening graphics. The cranberry is a neat choice. Most going empire red or blue.
Thank you! A friend of mine put that opening graphic together for me. It turned out great! I didn't want to do the really bright red and didn't even think of blue.
I would have guessed orange or blue, but cranberry looks good!
Thank you! I appreciate it. I went round and round on the color. Finally settled on Cranberry. I love it.
Engine work is beyond my skill level, but I'm glad to see progress on the Firebird. I understand the time and money restraints, but keep trying!
Lol. It's beyond my skill level too. But I'm learning and I'm having a ton of fun doing it. Just hoping for the best when it's time to start it.
