I would not recommend doing that way, it was incredibly stupid and would start to leak when it started to get cold. I have swapped to the correct fuel lines now

@jonatansanchez3279 sounds like your not getting power to the interior. Got power at the fusebox?

@@misterglock.4282 Speed Engineering 3in true duals

@msh6865 that's a hard question after 12 years lol, 3k in the motor(crate motor ls1) and 1100 in everything else

Add the cost a motor, accessories, k-member, harness, pcm, radiator. I originally built this car when the parts were a tad bit cheaper. The original cost of the car was $5,100 with 107k miles. The body has over 200,000 miles now

@lazylion420 it was a v6 originally..... only things not factory are the hood and ws6 deck lid. People give me confused looks when they see Firebird on the doors and it's got a ls1 lol

I actually have no idea where that black white wire goes to fusebox. I just followed someone else's tortorial. It just worked lol

Ya I noticed that, hoping once I get it tuned properly it will run a tad smoother. It's not very old at all

There is only one wire to add to make it run. Ls wiring harness plugs right into the v6 body harness

Looking at my receipt from 2012 (which I somehow found lol) the motor retailed for $3,554.44 and I paid $2,978.13 Can't find them that cheap anymore lol

It was cheaper to do when I did it. I was able to score a complete drop out for $2100, had to return motor due to a broken piston then bought a crate motor ls1 from GM

Would also need f body oil pan and balancer I believe as well. I'd go with a factory harness, custom gets pricey. I had parts from a donor when I did mine. Lots of options to wire the motor tho

@@evanhall19 yes I had to get the f body oil pan too. Thank you for taking the time to respond!

@@evanhall19I’m doing the same thing with a 5.3 in a 99 firebird .. should I get the factory Ls1 harness and also the Ecm ? Any help would be greatly appreciated sir .. thank you 🙏🏼

@EricAtkinsonMusic after a quick search most people had a ton of issues trying to use anything other than a factory harness, as a truck harness has the PCM on the other side of engine bay. I would also find the correct pcm for the car as well. Less hassle, unless you have HP tuners to adjust a truck pcm to work in the firebird

@@evanhall19 so I’ll just get me an ls1 99 trans am harness and pcm and go that route..I have all the fbody parts adapters brackets and stuff and I’m not sure what size transmission is in mine ..it’s got a super big pan but will I have to change the transmission as well .. also that injection 2 wire is already hooked up on mine for some reason

I have a newer video going over roughly what I did, a donor car would make it way easier. Need the v8 K-member, accessories, harness, ECU, Radiator, transmission lines (if auto) gotta add a wire to the fuse box so all the injectors will work. The v8 harness plugs rights into the v6 body harness. The v6 cluster will work with the swap, ran mine for about a year before swapping.

Well about that lol, your gonna have to add a pin. I went the lazy way and just jammed the fuse down over the wire. One side of the injector 2 fuse location is hot (mine was)

@XenoSeven86 now that you've asked me this question, my install is now bothering me..... guess I'll order a pin to install into the fuse block lol

@@evanhall19 I just went to a pick n pull and grabbed one off a Tahoe. But yeah think it’s called Multi-Pak idk the number 150/250?

Just plugged in the V8 ECM into harness and it worked

@@evanhall19 Great I have a stock PCM and was about to order one with VATS delete. U just saved me some money

As long as it's a 99-02 F-body should be simple ecm swap, with the added wire for the added injectors

@@evanhall19 ‘01 V6 A4 swapped to ‘01 LS1 M6 can’t wait to fire it

I did upgrade the fuel pump and the line with the green cap is a EVAP line. Also within the last 2 weeks got around to replacing the v6 fuel lines with v8 lines. So everything is now correct

@@evanhall19 thank you for the reply.

Never hooked it back up..... I do miss it!

@evanhall17 ahh that's about where I'm at

@@williamkosarek780 I still got the wiring tied up in front of the fans for the electric throttle body.

It's just a stock 99-02 camaro/Trans Am engine/transmission harness, they plug right into the v6 body harness

I have not had any start up issues with my fuel system set up. only need to change mine to AN fittings to be safer Yours is clean BTW.

I made a new video, hopefully it helps answer some of your questions

@@evanhall19 Oh bet dude, thank you!

How much would you think you spend for having it like the way you have it right now I have my 01 firebird and trying to do the same as yours just curious about how much $ would I need ?

With motor slid into factory location it did not. We will eventually get a top mount style. The motor mount adapters we used did not allow enough space. I think if u make your own it will fit, but frame normally needs notched

Speed engineering C10 ls swap shorties, and ICT brand ls c10 swap engine mounts. Could not run low hang AC compressor with the engine mounts

My dad and I swapped it ourselves. I can't remember the cost. We ended up having to have the engine fully rebuilt after the seller lied to us.

@@evanhall19 oh man that sucks...but it came out real good, truck looks and sounds 👌 👏 👍

@@ricardoeaglertowing570 thanks man. Been a good truck! Been in the family since 1986

Its hard to say now... i did it back in 2012. I went the expensive route and picked up a ls1 crate motor from GM Performance for a little over 3k. Got the transmission, k-member(with suspension), accessories, wiring harness, and a radiator for around $1,100 from a local salvage, spend 500 to have 4l60e rebuilt by a friend i worked with at the time. Im still driving the car, body has over 200,000 on it now, motor i lost track of.

jensen vx7020, its pretty old. Works good though

Original 3.08 open diff that came with the car. Has survived my lead foot for the last 8 years lol

Thats good. Poor Finnegan lol

I used this guys methods. I think pictures are broken now. Took me two days to swap from a running v6 car to a running v8 car... whoever says its hard is not intelligent ls1tech.com/forums/conversions-hybrids/1165822-99-l36-v6-01-ls1-v8-swap-w-pics.html

I think i had had a magnaflow muffler welded to the original piping... now i got full exhaust. 1in7/8 speed engineering headers and their 3in true dual stainless exhaust with bullet mufflers. I have a newer video of the car

Evan Hall Awesome Thank you so much

Yup. I ran the v6 cluster about a year before finding a low mileage v8 cluster (which shows 160mph)

As long as its a 99+ its super easy. 98 might be the same. Just use the engine harness from a camaro or trans am. Yes you will need the v8 k member as well. This swap took me two days to do in my dads garage without a lift. The harness plugs right into the body harness as well.

Evan Hall thanks! The Firebird I bought is a 2000. I talked to a performance shop today and he made it sound like it’s a huge headache to swap over but from what I’ve been reading by a lot of guys who have done the swap, it doesn’t sound that bad of a job. Thanks again!

Not any current ones. This motor blew up and he is now rocking a LSx 427 thats pushing a little over 600hp to the wheels. Built 9in rated at 1500hp. Equally upgraded clutch and t56 as well

Originally was gonna cost $2100. Got a deal at a salvage for a Engine, transmission, subframe, ecm, wiring, and accessories. Motor ended up knocking and gave it back, got $1000 back then spent $3000 for a GM performance LS1 long block (which you cant buy any more). So id say a little around $4500. Getting a brand new engine hurt the wallet the most lol

I believe 99-02 is all the same. And maybe 98. 97 and below you have to change quite a bit of wiring to make a ls work. Havent looked to much into it

I've had it up to 130 pretty easily. I don't have Z rated tires so i don't do it very often. Its a runner though! Itll handle the speeds just as good as the Trans Am/Z-28 counterpart. Its my daily so i try not to abuse it to much.....

Evan Hall Yeah I hear ya. When I finally get mine, I plan on putting some new cams and headers in the ls1

i got a complete lift out from a 02 Z28. came with craddle, engine, transmission, accessories and harness. as long as you get the F-body LS1 harness it plugs directly into the body harness of the v6 car body. only got to add one wire to make it run. had it running in two days on a weekend

Evan Hall you didn’t have to switch out the radiator or fans?

Evan Hall what wire did you have to add to make it run? Was it the wire splice on the passenger shock tower to get power to bank 2 injectors and coils?

Angelo Edwards I need the answer to this as well what wire is it mine is only firing on bank1

Christian Del Bosque you’ll have to look at the wire schematic. Basically all your doing is splicing into power that feeds bank 1 with bank 2. The main issue is the bcm (chassis harness) is still V6 and the 6 cylinder cars only has 1 fuse that powers all 6 coils and injectors. Well with the LS that side fuse on the body harness will work but it only sends power to bank 1. AL you have to do is get power to bank 2 and that should be all the wire management don’t take my word on that tho

Devon Lewis use this guys build. he did an excellent write up. its what i used. ls1tech.com/forums/conversions-hybrids/1165822-99-l36-v6-01-ls1-v8-swap-w-pics.html

Evan Hall Hell yeah you the man bro. The donor car is in fact a WS6 2000. I'll post video and pictures soon bro. Again thanks man

Devon Lewis i didnt have a donor lol. so i skipped changing the fuel lines. figured out a way to return fuel to tank another way.

Evan Hall cool bro... so you kept your original electrical harness?

Devon Lewis the body harness yes. engine harness came with the motor. all u gotta do is add one little wire from engine harness to a live fuse location and itll start right up. took me two days to finish the swap. easiest swap ever

SteveSeiwald Same here brotha! Doing a 94 3.4 To an LT1
