    You are keeping the budget small - I like that approach.

      I was shooting for $5k total, including car. But with the T56 instead of cheap 5spd it's closer to 8. But still a lot of bang for the buck

    Good video to show how to do this! I kept the truck intake on my swap because I didn’t want to buy another water pump, fuel rails all the stuff that comes along with that but you did it on a budget for sure

      I'm going for the sleeper vibe, so I really had no choice. Zero chance it would have fit without it. Still sucks to put $500 into a $350 engine for 0 horsepower 🤣

      Do you have a link for the injector o-rings? Would they work for an LS1 manifold?

      @Jay Scheick looks like upper is same, lower is different. But I was using an upper in the lower anyway, so it would be worth a shot

    Dude! Awesome info thanks! I’m new to major auto projects and me and my son are putting a 2000 truck 5.3 in a 2001 Camaro and this video is gonna help tremendously! Do you have a link for the exact intake and it looks like the throttle
    Body you linked is not available anymore.

      Intake is ls2 you'll have to find the used..or if you still have your ls1 intake from the Camaro use that

      @@GEARHEADdezign thanks man! I’ll have to find one. The Camaro was originally a v6 car. People want a mint for intakes! I was reading there is an aftermarket dorman intake but I can’t find it.

      The dorman LS2 intake used to be a couple hundred but then people realized it made basically the same power as the FAST 92 and they jacked the price up

    I don't at all care for the injector setup. I've chased injector vacuum leaks with better setups. The truck accessories tho, pretty slick. Almost looks like a long version Corvette layout. Lol

      So far it's been fine. I don't have a lot of miles on it, so I don't know longevity yet
