Chad you might think about after lining up the engine mounts, I’d tighten up the bolts on the shims that are attached to the motor mount on the engine and weld them in place and you wouldn’t want those to move after the engine is bolted in place if that makes sense. I figured it a few minutes Jimbo would’ve said the same thing. Lol
You remind me of me when I was young. Doing crazy things with cars that nobody would ever tried. Thankful for the technical equipment that people like yourself can share. I can say, you are so blessed that Jolene loves what you are doing and has the capability of working on cars also.
It's going in the one way or the other,it's always nice to have Jim around with his talking and advice,he also knows a lot of the old cars,great filming again Jolene,thanks for sharing
I have to advise, by introducing linkage system to your engine mounts you run the risk of having the engine Shift to one side or the other. Engine mounts have to be a hard connect. A good fix for this is remove the engine brace from the frame bolted to the engine then drop your edge back in weld the cross brace when you are happy with where the engine is sitting.
Chad I sure hope you're going to weld the new brackets in , once you get them where you want.. You don't want any movement, and hope that 4 nut's and bolts do not ever work loose. Anyway It's really going to be a sweet ride. Love the colors.. And Come on Miss Jet Set. We are rooting for you Jolene.
Here we go rd 2 you'll get her in. Looking real good for sure. Perfect motor for build. Glad to see Jim's in the house again. Was glad to see him yesterday. Hi Jolene great camera work as always
I used a 2001 Tahoe for a donor car for my 68 elCamino. As far as what I heard that 5.3 had 285 HP from factory but you can tune the ECM and get close to 500 HP without buying extra parts. Haven't tuned mine yet but want to when I get it all done. :)
I remember enstalling a 383 mercury engine in my 56 mercury about 55 years ago. I didnt use any fancy ready made brackets. My install was a stick welder metal cut offs and a little engenuity. But everything worked 100 percent.
It's always a process swapping an engine into something different, I've done my fair share of that too. Always great to see how someone else goes at it, and learn something from them! Way to go Chad and congrats to Jolene! We gotta keep voting for her, guys!!!!
Second time went smoothly and again Jim knowledgeable suggestions were a big help in getting the job done his knowledge of getting things has been timely all through this project. Thanks Mark Dutka Oakville Ontario Canada
Great, a little closer. Trial and error is always part of these projects and it’s always nice to have some help. Good job Boys! Great vids guys, keep them coming and good luck to Jolene.
Glad to see Jim helping, passing knowledge, rolling smokes, drinking Pepsi, dressing for the occasion, wired for sound, and watching Chads face. Great show, super entertaining, I cannot stop watching. Keep up the great work, hi Jolene, I voted, well everyday I do!!!! Love you guys !!! Now the only tape I buy is green. Lol
Love the way its all coming together, you sir are a one of a kind car guy with a style that is like nothing anyone has ever seen. And Jolene is awesome for all the work and behind the scenes stuff she does, good vibes from down here in Missouri.
Chad I put the bolts in from the front on my LS swap and had to drop the oil pan to change the o ring on the oil pickup and had to unbolt the engine to jack it up and the bolt on the drivers side was a pain to get out because it was hitting the power steering pump,so when I put it back in I went in front the back
Good to see you guys working together again....always like to hear you guys discussing and working through the issues..big thumbs up..went in pretty good 👍...thanks to you all for another cool video...way to go jolene on jetsetter...cya tomorrow
On your old chrome bumper on Elvis, even if it is pitted, try polishing it with a very fine steelwool. You will be amazed at how good that works. It would be worth a try. After polished, put chrome polish or wax on it. It doesn't really take a lot of work and will look great usually. Love the daily videos.
OMG!!! Jim is Killing me!! When Chad said we should have put Jim in high heels I was laughing so hard I couldn't see but then when Chad comes out with the intake and Jim says boy you make that look light and Chad says it's plastic I couldn't stop laughing! Thank you for making my day!!!! Jim for President.
This should be a good one. As long as the oil pan clears the steering and is not below the bottom of the frame it should be fine. Great video by Jolene every day. Have at it Chad and Jim.
I’ve been fooling around with building mini bikes and go karts and that takes forever and is a ton of work. I can’t imagine building a car. Way to go Chad. Great to see Jim. Thank you Chad and Jolene
Great video as always...got to love manoeuvring an engine/trans in & around an engine bay. They are expensive, but the foam mockup blocks are well worth the money.
The idea behind the bolt orientation is to prevent or at least slow down the separation of parts if a nut vibrates loose off a bolt. It is an aircraft traditional guideline. Back/Down/In. Does it work? Do not know for sure but when working on airplanes the back of my cranium begins to creak when it comes time to bolt things together. Been doing it for so long it happens anytime I pick up a socket wrench. It cannot hurt and it helps keep me from going insane!
You noted the problem of the engine moving 'side to side'. I trust you are going to weld something to not let that happen. (maybe weld the 'extenders' to the engine mount?) I wouldn't expect the bolts to hold it in one place, once you get on it. Wouldn't want the engine to, say, move sideways and lock up the steering, for instance.... Mr. Positive
Chad and Jolene, you guys are awesome. My wife watches with me everyday. I would never have guessed that. Fina has even caught the eyes of my two dogs a couple different times. Keep doing what you’re doing. We all enjoy it!
Good job Chad, Jim and Jolene! Great to see Jim again today! Stay the course for a bit Chad, before trading off on another of your cars! Viewers, let's keep voting! "Jet Setting Jolene"!!!
You are correct sir… the hardware is installed with the head of the bolt most forward (or inserted from the front towards the back) and mounting hardware from the side the bolt head should be furthest out (or inserted with the threads inboard)
Looks like that you had a good time yesterday with Jimbo and the LS task. I hope that Jim will show up in the future. Full of experience with a lot of fun doing these things and always a joke on his lips. Great job team!
And when you get that motor in there where you want it make sure you put you some mounts on them out to the frame in spot weld them because that LS motor will break them and if you ever need to pull the motor out Yes and do the spot welds
Can't wait to start my 84 c4 project Body is in mint condition going to change color. I bought all brand-new rubber seals and carpets and headliner for it. Going to do a super Retro into the future upgrade with the car. Back up camera Touch screen radio you name it. LED Corvette door projectors. Probably Stripping down the motor doing a New Cam and upgrade on whatever it needs wires ect... I want the 205 HP motor to be around 300+
TO Jim: you should have a jetway Hydramatic transmission. NO park check linkage. Un hook linkage at transmission. Put it in Low, then push it to park position and see if you now have park. Push car to verify it is in park. If you now have park adjust linkage to align with transmission. If no park You have a broken park pawl in transmission that locks it in park. Try the first one first! I assume transmission is original. IF NOT SAME PROCESS WITH OTHER AUTO TRANSISSIONS.
I’ve seen guys section the LS oil pan for ground clearance, Halfass Customes is one of them. Mark it with painters tape. Cut along the tape and tig it back together. Add a smear of JB Weld for insurance. This thing’s going to be a bad ass hot rod with that LS in there.
I'm sure others said it also but I remember saying that bolts should go facing rearward in case the nuts fall off the bolt stays. I'm glad you are doing that Chad
Making it happen. Two minds figuring it out is as real as it gets. Nice job you two and Jolene you’re getting my vote for not laughing. Best video on the tube!!
You can certainly tell that Jim has been "around" engines and has an eye for adjustments. His technical knowledge is great... a great dry sense of humour which allows Chad to segway into his next point and it's a bonus that he (Chad) has linear thinking!
Sometimes it's hard watching you struggle with things that can be so much easier. Brilliant body design, but the mechanicals often cause you a LOT of grief. Will be great when it's done and still voting for Jolene every day.
I was laughing when Chad got all dirty on the floor as I was thinking of Jimbo’s comment yesterday about if he laid down on the floor he’d look like a snowman ⛄️🤣😂 👍
I like watching Chad & ol' Jimbo working together they good ol' boys & good thinkers there's a lot of truth to their philosophy. I can tell jimbo & Chad's been there & done that to take what it needs to get the job done without a whole lot of hassle.. Yes sir they a really cool cats when working together & so is Jolene 👍 Ps. The 5.3 LITER Ecotech3 is a 325 cubic inch with 355 HP with 383 foot pounds of torque. More then a 300 HP 327 cubic inch engine. 17 mpg city 25 mpg Hwy 😉"
Love this cause I've been working on GM FI systems since 1990 and have tuned into Chad for body work tips. So enjoyable to listen to Jim and Chad talk themselves through this.
Keep up the great work Chad & Jolene!!!! Learning a ton from you that I am using over on my bagged '52 Chevy 3100 project I'm documenting on my channel :)
Great show tonight with Jim on board to help out, fun and games fitting the engine and trans, but got there in the end, another lesson learned, great work by all
I’m building a 66 Pontiac bonneville right now putting a 6.0 LS engine in it and the best intake I’ve found is one from a 2000 ls1 camaro I painted mine to match engine
That LS is gonna make Elvis run very well trust me I have one in my 2004 Chevy and it goes with 260’000 miles on it and I could jump in it and drive too you that’s how reliable they are I love it
That happened to me clean up the engine bay took the time to wet sand paint it, then when my brother and Pop's installed the engine scratch the engine bay installing the engine. My POP'S said I should have taped or put cardboard to prevent it from getting scratched, I either touched it up or just left it as a reminder. After all the dress up on the engine and sleeved all the wire's in looms everything looked tight and right when lifting up my engine hood. Everyone is running LS SWAP? I guess if you want good gas mileage and reliability that's the way to go from what I hear.
Only recently started watching. I like raw working at home content which gets lost on TV when the money rolls in the workshops and tools become out of reach for normal folk. As said in other comments the engine mount adapters you made need welding one side to stop movement. Looking forward to the progress.
@ 35:00 The conversation about chrome. Polishing stainless gives as good a look Stainless is not easy to work with, but is much less expensive and lasts longer.
My favorite show of all. Laughed out loud several times. I am glad everything went smooth with the engine install. Jim had me laughing hard. Don't get depressed. Lol
Great team work. 😎👍 I assume that you will have to weld the brackets you added to the engine, otherwise it could move with the vibrations. Greetings from Switzerland
I'd bet Chaddy and Jimbo were wild men in their younger days.....kinda like me. BUT, we still have our memories. At least the things we CAN remember! Congrats to Jolene on her win!
Your going to have to weld those tabs either on the frame or the motor brackets because it can turn and buckle with all four tabs being not stationary the motor can twist
Chad and jolene were you have put the home made brackets on the engine mounts will you have to weld a plate between the two pieces to stop the sizzor action going on a plate across the back will stop that from happening. Keep up the great work the both of you 👍 👏
I use a rubber glove like the dr wears to stretch over the tail shadt of the transmission and tape it up to keep from making a mess with the fluid leaking... great work though I love watching your show everyday
Vote for Jolene here: miss.jetsetmag.com/2022/jolene-macintyre
A little late but done
LS motors are the way to go!
Try and remember to do it every day right after the video.
The Legend JIM the G.O.A.T. 1:07:16 😁👍🟥🍁🟥🏍
Good job guys 😮
Chad you might think about after lining up the engine mounts, I’d tighten up the bolts on the shims that are attached to the motor mount on the engine and weld them in place and you wouldn’t want those to move after the engine is bolted in place if that makes sense.

Two consecutive days with Jim is a real treat! Thanks Jim for keeping things real!

Great, a little closer. Trial and error is always part of these projects and it’s always nice to have some help. Good job Boys! Great vids guys, keep them coming and good luck to Jolene.
The car is coming along great! Glad to see you have friends like Jim to stop by and help.

This should be a good one. As long as the oil pan clears the steering and is not below the bottom of the frame it should be fine. Great video by Jolene every day. Have at it Chad and Jim.
Its awesome to see the comradary of friends working together and leaning as you go. Congratulations Jolene go get it

Mr. Positive
also, you can add any engine angle you want by drilling the holes on the "straps" different on the front and back...
Chad and Jolene, you guys are awesome. My wife watches with me everyday. I would never have guessed that. Fina has even caught the eyes of my two dogs a couple different times. Keep doing what you’re doing. We all enjoy it!
Good job Chad, Jim and Jolene! Great to see Jim again today!

Looks great! Always like to watch the way its comming together and how you solve the problems and issues!

Great content! I look forward to the program daily! Thanks Chad for sharing your art!
Back to back Jimbo episodes, double gold. Jim pushed the process forward and was a joy. Thanks
I'm sure others said it also but I remember saying that bolts should go facing rearward in case the nuts fall off the bolt stays. I'm glad you are doing that Chad

Chad and Jim did a great job getting transmission and engine aligned. Great job Jolene keep going !
It’s always good to have to heads on a job. I like how detail oriented Jim is.
Love all the information from your videos, no drama that you have on the big box shows, keep the videos coming
I'm sure everybody that was watching was trying to figure it out right along with you guys. Great episode!!!
Jim your unintended humour with your normal speaking is refreshing.
Your sense of direction in getting the job done is often right on.
Love this cause I've been working on GM FI systems since 1990 and have tuned into Chad for body work tips. So enjoyable to listen to Jim and Chad talk themselves through this.
“In the hole” huh? Jim’s gotta good sense of humor, always a pleasure to see him and hear more wisdom from him!👍
Keep up the great work Chad & Jolene!!!! Learning a ton from you that I am using over on my bagged '52 Chevy 3100 project I'm documenting on my channel :)
Great show tonight with Jim on board to help out, fun and games fitting the engine and trans, but got there in the end, another lesson learned, great work by all
It is really good to see Chad and Jim working together again. Another great audio and video from Jolene and as always it is good to see Fina. Bill
Best kinda visit is with a friend like Jim to assist you, he shares your sense of the basics of motor, and tranny installation, Chad
that ls is good to look nice in the car when you get it done. thank you Chad and Jolene for a great video
It's always good to have help installing an engine. Good one Jimbo.
Once again Jim is a valuable guy to have as a friend. Tough job for sure, squeezing a motor in.
Chad, the ls engine is looking great. Love what you did with the dash and the chrome moulding. You're a genius!😊
I appreciate that Chad listens to Jim,s ideas. Jim has experienced mechanical issues and has a lot of ideas 👍
I’m building a 66 Pontiac bonneville right now putting a 6.0 LS engine in it and the best intake I’ve found is one from a 2000 ls1 camaro I painted mine to match engine
You Guys got this...It will fit like a glove in the end
I always get a kick out of the way Chad handles working with Jim! Love the videos!
That LS is gonna make Elvis run very well trust me I have one in my 2004 Chevy and it goes with 260’000 miles on it and I could jump in it and drive too you that’s how reliable they are I love it
If you find that the intake is to tall I think there is a Camero that had a shorter intake that will work. :)
Great to see it moving forward and great to see good friends working it out together.
That happened to me clean up the engine bay took the time to wet sand paint it, then when my brother and Pop's installed the engine scratch the engine bay installing the engine. My POP'S said I should have taped or put cardboard to prevent it from getting scratched, I either touched it up or just left it as a reminder.

I guess if you want good gas mileage and reliability that's the way to go from what I hear.
It's always good to have a second pair of hands ✋ to make the job go easier ! Way to go Jim ! Thumbs-up Jolene 👍 and 👍 Chad and 👍 Jim team effort
Hope we find out if the LS with intake fit under the louvered panels. That will be an awesome look! Thanks Chad and Jolene.
Your mate Jim is one funny guy and cracks me up ... love the way you solve problems without any drama's
Only recently started watching. I like raw working at home content which gets lost on TV when the money rolls in the workshops and tools become out of reach for normal folk.

I watch this and learn something new every episode. Your amazing guys , keep up the good work.
Nice to see different ways of coming up with something to make it work. Awesome
This is the way real people do things like this , Chad , Joline and Jim , doesn’t get much better than that
My favorite show of all. Laughed out loud several times. I am glad everything went smooth with the engine install. Jim had me laughing hard. Don't get depressed. Lol
Enjoyed watching. Always learning something.
Nice to see bodyworkers do some mechanics work.
You doing it fine, everyone has his own way but this is your way. 👍
Looking forward to see it be mounted with the transmission.
How you change the brackets and how it fits.
You scared me Chad but made it! Great job, I’m still learning everyday! Thanks to you and Jolene.
love it, it is good to see jim helping, you are a good friend to him
that engine is going to be a tight fit , But you can do it , Love to watch you work very inspiring Thanks for letting us ride along
Great team work. 😎👍
I assume that you will have to weld the brackets you added to the engine, otherwise it could move with the vibrations.
Greetings from Switzerland
Holy Power! Thank you Chad and Jolene!
I'd bet Chaddy and Jimbo were wild men in their younger days.....kinda like me. BUT, we still have our memories. At least the things we CAN remember! Congrats to Jolene on her win!
Your going to have to weld those tabs either on the frame or the motor brackets because it can turn and buckle with all four tabs being not stationary the motor can twist
Twist left to right as it revs up
Jim always gives the show a different type of entertainment… He would be a great friend to have around helping..
Love watching and learning. Thanks for the hard work you two
One thing to avoid is drawing the transmission to the engine with bolts. You can break off the tabs on the transmission that way if not careful.
Or tear up the trans pump with the convertor sticking out some.
Years of experience yet you learn something new in every build.
Chad and Jim will get it done. Still worried about the oil pan. But sure Chad will get it done. Thanks for the video
Chad and jolene were you have put the home made brackets on the engine mounts will you have to weld a plate between the two pieces to stop the sizzor action going on a plate across the back will stop that from happening. Keep up the great work the both of you 👍 👏
I use a rubber glove like the dr wears to stretch over the tail shadt of the transmission and tape it up to keep from making a mess with the fluid leaking... great work though I love watching your show everyday
I did my "daily" vote for Jolene and a big thumbs up! Good work.
