BMW LS3 SWAP Transmission + Header Installation
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 сер 2017
- I continue working on my LS3 E46 Build. I install the transmission and also install the headers that I bought from CX Racing. However, neither was easy since we ran into some problems.

Selena, I applaud you and your team on these videos. The Discovery network could learn something from this, and no B.S. drama. Actually show the fabrication involved in doing this swap is something the networks don't seem to understand. This is what we want to see, no drama. Looking forward to the next vid.
popping those BMW shift knobs out is dangerous work. Several people on the forums over the years have given themselves black eyes, bloody noses, etc from it! I remember one guy's strategy was to straddle the console with his head out the sunroof, wearing a full face helmet, and yanking upward... lol
Best car video and the cleanest i've seen in a while.
Seriously so cute how enthusiastic you are about working on your own car! Keep it up!
Great to watch the progress week on week. Very methodical structured approach. Keep going.
Project is going great so far! Good luck with the rest, you will make it happen!

Enjoyed as usual! Even if I never do a swap like this, I am picking up tips for in the future that you could use on any swap. I was worried for you that it was going to fit, but so far so good and dang those headers are big and bad!

Great job Selena. When you finish this build, do the same on an E90.
Great content keep up the good work 👍👍👍
Great video!! Didn't know you were from NC!!
Luv the vids girl. Keep it up
Great video👍
great video
Also, as an LS3 owner i must advise you, now that you still havent permanently installed it, i would highly recommend to get the oil pressure sending unit relocation kit regardless if you are gonna reuse the stock sending unit or and aftermarket one. Its like $40 but what it does is allow you to have access to the oil sending unit with a mechanical gauge conveniently right above the driver side valve cover instead of behind the intake manifold. If it ever fails, it a 5 minute fix up there. But in the stock location, with as little room as you already have, you will likely have to lower the subframe again and its too much work if the alternative is a one time cost of $40
Great Job .
Saleeennaaa!!! 🔥🔥🔥 videos, very informative!! Thanks for sharing tour journey with us homie!!
You make this look easy ; )
Love you selena keep on😍
I love your videos
This is great!
Mad respect for your hard work and dedication on BMW project Why not just get a fbody with t tops lol
Good job.
Great video selena, Maybe I should make a video doing one of these swaps as well.
Beautiful
The best tip for removing a BMW shift knob is to start by getting an ice pack. Then pull on the knob as hard as you can. Once it comes off apply the ice pack to your forehead where you just smacked yourself when the knob let go.
That shift knob was trolling lol
Great work as always Selena. Is it just me, or is the CS Racing stuff not as plug n play as it should be?
Great work, move your abs module/pump these go bad from heat as is. Those header will cook it
You should make a Q&A video!!
Youre the best
Here in Northern California it was 107 degrees yesterday.
Great work! The only thing that would suck is changing the clutch in the future. You would have to drop the whole subframe and the engine for it. Won't be too bad for you because you have access to a lift.
"
anything for salinas!!"
Best Girl on youtube 👍
My girl can't even add air to a tire
NOE MARTINEZ LMFAO 😂😂😂
Awesome dammn your so good
Hey Selena were did u go to get the Camaro and how much did u pay i have a 2002 e46 and i have been talking about it for years. Thanks alot by the way your channel is well appreciated
Thank you !🚘🌞
wow . what a wonderful job you're doing selena . keep it up girl. and don't forget to give me a shout out awesome girl.
That’s cool
Es un trabajo difícil, pero estoy seguro que podrán hacerlo... Saludos!
Nice
Looking good.. I need to find a bmw wagon..
Wow you actually get right to the point. A lot of these "bros" on the internet just talk and talk. Would it be easier to start with a manual e46 or does it not matter that much?
You might want to bang in the body around the bellhousing, move the engine forward or do something to give you more clearance to access the bellhousing bolts. If you ever have to do a clutch your probly guna have to lower the whole engine and subframe and that will suck.
IDK Salena, u think its safe to pass the steering rod through the headers. kind of got me thinking
Have any plans for the black auto shift knob you removed? I need one, I have the ugly wood one.
Inspiration. Not because she's a woman doing this but because its not am easy job.
Big respect
Just love this girl
No more to say
#bmwgirls
Are u using the original BMW motor harness or u have to make one
Hey do y'all have any videos on head gasket replacement?
Deserves more subs. Please be detailed on the wiring, hate hearing people talking about these e46 ls swaps won't pass smog, and wiring blah blah.
Selena , ¿Qué ha pasado con el proyecto LS3? hace mucho que no veo vídeos sobre ello. ¿Hubo algún problema?
How are you able to work so easy and stressfree on your car? I'm trying to figure out why my S54 engine wont start after complete swap by myself from 316i. It has to be something electronic I wish guys could help me out lol im freaking out, because I checked everything... FML
