First lemme say your videos are very informative to the people who haven't done much in the past or are getting started in building. That being said ya come across as condescending Alot of the time, which is purely non intentional, I'm only mentioning this because your videos are very helpful to Alot of folks, I imagine that you do them to help others avoid costly mistakes which is great but sometimes it seems like ya really don't wanna be doing it, this is just my observation. You do a far better job than I ever could .... I know I'm an asshole which makes it impossible for me to do anything like your doing so thanks again and again these are only my observations God bless you and your's
For anyone about to notch their frame on their s10, if your using 302-1 oil pan. You need to notch more than 9 inches go a little over 10.5 inches. Because it's possible to lose distance after welding.
Great info bro, it's a damn shame, that I've seen an been hired to re, square , plum an fix this exact thing people do without proper prior knowledge of basic math, mechanics, an welding skills
Hes right those mounts dont last very long theres a guy here in youtube he just posted a video about this motor mounts he upgraded them to a diffrent style polyurethane for 75 I'm getting thise and getting Rudd of the 4.3 mounts they brand new but since I'm doing a 5.3 swap I need to thanks for the advice👍👍👍
New to the swap out v8 I am putting a older 1963 SBC in a 94s10. And hope I don't have to cut the frame rail it's been a bitch so far 😂don't what brackets are going to line up with the power steering pump it's a older block with no holes for all the alternator or pumps any suggestions would be appreciated
so youre telling me if i put a 5.3 from a truck i can use the stock oil pan and i shouldn't have to notch the cross member and it wont hit? if that is the case im happy to hear cuse alot of these youtubers dont seem to know what they are talking about in the other videos that ive seen
The top part is a speedway motors column. The lower is from a 90's jeep Cherokee or Comanche truck . i beleive it is 3/4 30 spline at box and 1" DD at column.
Depends on the application. He explains why he needed to. Thats the nature of swapping and fabricating stuff. Sometimes you have to modify things cause they don't make everything bolt in.
@@SOLDOZER i guess that depends on specific application but id rather cut a crossmember than a firewall. And how often even in "the old days" did something like that thag was done right fail? If you put quality metal back you can cut ane notch anything, or heck even build a new crossmember. Its his truck and he explained his choices so whats the problem? And his point was more that the engine isn't center than it was to cut the crossmember.
This is some of the best V8 swap information I have found. Thank you. The info about the motor mount is priceless! Thank you!
Nice video Brother, I did not know about the engine offset. Great info thank you.

What if you motor plate it.
Don't forget to offset your cut. we got it, we got it, we got it, we got it, we got it.
I measured it once, and cut it twice. And it was still too short.
May I know what steering shaft that is?

I got mine off a 94 Cherokee
DO NOT notch your crossmember. Theres is zero need to.

@@brendonmanship8854 Cutting the crossmember was the old way because there was no brackets or other options. There is now, so no need to cut.

Maybe if a big block is going in.but definitely no need for Ls or sbc.i sure as hell didn’t have to.
@@SOLDOZERI notched mine. I have the Holley pan and it wouldn't clear like they say.
