Man she is looking good, this car is going to be amazing, and your quality materials and install will give many enjoyable miles of driving / racing. Cant wait to hear it run, mine was one of the joys of my life when she fired up the first time. Cheers!
New subscriber. As a retired electrical engineer building a 70 Camaro that will be my first LS swap(going LSX-LS7 route) with a T-56 Magnum. I was so happy to finally find a channel that shows how to do a quality job on the LS wiring, panel, etc etc. I have been paranoid about getting the car stolen too as I plan on it being regularly driven all over the place. Thanks for the information.
I'm very interested about your bulkhead fitting for your fuel pump and sender connector. It makes sense. Is this something you are planning on selling? In kit form with pins and connectors?
Do you have a link for the connector you hooked the 2 red wires too from the c100? Also is the connector hooked to your LS harness in anyway? I’m currently in the process of this swap
yes, that chassis green wire is the only backup wire. the 4l60E has that wire connected to the shifter plug so you'll have to search a guide on what wire to use on the 60e.
What up bro how u doing I have 87 camaro Berlinetta I did my First ls swap And I got a crank no start I have power at Ejectors In Coil. Packs And I have spark. And then dakota digital dash and every time I turn my key over my Cluster goals black I'm not Sure what I did wrong And I can't figure it out
i just installed mine 3 days ago refresh my memory the ground wire aeromotive sent with the assembly was that for grounding the sending ground terminal or the pump ground terminal? and as far as the other wires in the factory harness... purple was sender positive, white is pump positive, and black is pump ground or sender ground? i might have wired mine wrong i can't tell from your video because of whatever wrap you put on your wires🤨 edit: i just fetched the aeromotive instructions from my car and it says to hook the included ground to sender negative terminal and the other end to a clean chassis ground, so the black wire you hooked to your sender ground....was that from the factory harness that passes through the bulk head? and if so isn't that the pump ground wire?
the (+) and (-) sending unit wires are 2 separate wires and run to the front of the car. even stock the sending unit wires aren't grounded through the chassis as it causes too much electronic noise. if you have a stock gauge cluster, just route the 2 sending unit wires to where the stock wires connect to the chassis harness. tank: Fuel pump (+): to a 12v source/relay fuel pump (-): to a ground source. In my case, the chassis. Sending unit (+): to gauges sending unit (-): to gauges
@@3rdGenGuy thank you! I have 10 gauge wire. Just not sure what size fuse to put in line. And do I need to put a fuse for each wire or can I put both together one just one fuse? Thank you for your time
I'd probably use something like two 40amp inline fuses for a mostly stock 3rd gen. I used a 30 amp fuse for each wire (2x 30amp fuses), but my car has very little power draw. mainly because I removed a lot from the car.
As a 3rd gen owner, its a very simple and cheap platform to get into. But if you really want something special, you become passionate about the car; you put a ton of time, money, and care. it's not a hard concept, its like that about anything someone is passionate about.
I sell those Fuel Pump bulkheads for anyone interested.

Thanks for providing beneficial and in-depth information! it's nice to not have to scrounge around decade-old forums for obscure install questions.

I do sell them, but it's still a prototype.(sold 1 so far)
not cheap either, they are currently about $80 shipped.
@@3rdGenGuy Thanks! To order, do you have a web page/contact info?
I usually deal with messages on my instagram "@3rdgenguy"
Hey, what's up, ,yo So the two red wires that you're talking about in your video those wires running into the starter ?
the 2 Big red wires are the stock chassis power distribution.
so headlights, windows exe.
Do you have a link for the connector you hooked the 2 red wires too from the c100? Also is the connector hooked to your LS harness in anyway?
I’m currently in the process of this swap
the 2 c100 power distribution wires are connected into my custom fuse box.
all you need to do is feed power to those 2 wires with fused 12V power
Hi bro .Can I still use that green wire on 4l60e for my back up Lights too ?
yes, that chassis green wire is the only backup wire.
the 4l60E has that wire connected to the shifter plug so you'll have to search a guide on what wire to use on the 60e.

always check fuel and spark.
i just installed mine 3 days ago
refresh my memory the ground wire aeromotive sent with the assembly was that for grounding the sending ground terminal or the pump ground terminal?
and as far as the other wires in the factory harness...
purple was sender positive, white is pump positive, and black is pump ground or sender ground?
i might have wired mine wrong i can't tell from your video because of whatever wrap you put on your wires🤨
edit:
i just fetched the aeromotive instructions from my car and it says to hook the included ground to sender negative terminal and the other end to a clean chassis ground, so the black wire you hooked to your sender ground....was that from the factory harness that passes through the bulk head? and if so isn't that the pump ground wire?
the (+) and (-) sending unit wires are 2 separate wires and run to the front of the car. even stock the sending unit wires aren't grounded through the chassis as it causes too much electronic noise.

Are you selling the fuel pump bulkhead plug setup?
Kind of, The issue is, the cost.
it's pricy at around $140 each.
that stupid bulkhead plug isn't cheap
What size fuse should I run for those two red wires ?
two 10 gauge or 12 gauge.
needs to be thick wire

@@3rdGenGuy thank you so much! I love your videos by the way. I’ve learned a lot from them
OH NO A TRAP DOOR....ruined it...cars no good now 😂😂😂
Why Eli you waste your time and money on a pos 3rd gen ?
Why do people waste their time on a pos Honda? Because who cares. Go elsewhere and be negative.
why jim do you waste our time with your stupid comments? it's his time and money. how about you just mind your business and worry about yourself.

we are car guys. If we weren't, we'd be buying new cars and not modifying old ones.
I love how people feel the need to tell others how to spend their money. Go away.
