- First start of my 1+ year Jeep YJ 5.3 project. Running an Edelbrock Pro Flo 4 EFI system on a freshly rebuilt 5.3. This has been an amazing project, please let me know if you have any questions, and thanks for watching.
Nice job
By far the best series of a Jeep resto on UA-cam
Nice workmanship. What did you hook the power brake vacuum hose to?
Just wanted to say very clean build. Gotta love that first fire up.
Fantastic job on your Jeep project Bob,,,it looks and sounds amazing. With so many questions to ask,,lol,,I would like to say one thing. THANK YOU 🙏 for posting this video. Watching this video warmed my heart and was a distraction from our current state of our world affairs and our nation to control this outbreak of the virus. Take care of yourself and your family. Be safe. God Bless you.
Man, what a nice thing to say!!! I’m thrilled that this video brought you even the littlest form of relief from the nonsense we are subjected to each day. Have a great one!
My ears hurt from the sides of my smile hitting them! This is awesome. Congratulations, it sounds wonderful. Cheers!
Mike, thanks my man! Project Rowdy and your informational videos are a real inspiration. Life is all about helping others and you’ve done that x1000 with your project. Can’t wait to hear yours!
@@BobWilson84 Cheers! I'm still plugging away. The Bodywork is just consuming alot more time than I expected. Spend 10 hours this past week stripping paint. I know you've been there. Love all the Paint details you shared. It is helping me plan my strategy. Cheers!
Looking very nice you did very good work on it
Just caught this vid...Great job Mr. Wilson.
Bob, when you ran wires from engine bay to cab, did you use and connectors like deutsch so if someone ever had to remove the tub they could disconnect?
Yo. Yep I used weatherpaks. I’m starting to regret selling it. I sold it to a nice guy down by you in Texas.
Looks amazing! You are doing a fantastic job!
I just love this build. She sounds fantastic!
Way to go bob!
Here’s my way less detailed startup video from the weekend, ua-cam.com/video/TvawOwB3IV8/v-deo.html
Awesome video Bob ,,, in my search for more information about the Edelbrock Pro Flo 4 i happened across your Videos.thanks for the inspiration (as my project is a 71' Chevy Vega with a SBC to LS3 conversion)
Cool project you got there. I can’t say much about the efi system yet since I haven’t really got past starting and warmups. So far I can say the connection to the tablet was simple and the initial programming was a piece of cake. Let me know if you have any questions, I’m no expert but happy to help.
Nice build. Nice flag.
Nice work Brother, nice ride.
Awesome!!!
Are those 265/70/16s ?
Subscribed a while back and must complement on the Immaculate build Bob. Very Impressive! My overall question is Did you integrate the factory GM computer in conjunction with the Edelbrock Pro Flo for some components to run, or is it completely operating by way of the Pro-Flo EFI? Thank you for sharing.

I got my fenders back from my paint buddy. did you have any issues with the brake lines on the driver side running on the frame? not sure if I should relocate lines or start cutting the fender. I did the 1" body lift.
Cool, I had no problems along the drivers side. There’s one cross member between the tub that’s a little tight, but with your body lift you should be golden
@@BobWilson84
I got the fenders on. In the end I put the CJ fender next to the mirrored Yj fender on a table. Following the profile with a sharpie. It turned out good. Thank you for your advice and videos
When can we start mine! Nice job love it
Just subscribe tell why the edelbrock thks
How is it holding?? Thinking about installing this system on my lq4 6.0 great job on the jeep
New owner says it runs well, no complainta
It...Is...ALIVE!
What kind of axles did you go with?
Mosiers in the rear 8.8” Ford. Stock Dana 30 up front. 3.55 gears lsd rear
What a great feeling! Are you a engineer?
More like an engine-nerd.
What didnyou do for wiring the alternator? From my understanding there is no wires in the edelbrock harness for the alternator. Was curious what you did for that?
The alternator and associated DC circuits are handled by the chassis harness....
I'm looking to do an LS swap myself into a 79 Firebird and have a stupid question. Does the ProFlo replace the need for a factory harness all together or are there bits you have to reuse? Non of Edelbrock's promotional material or web site say anything about this. Really hope you can help me out.
Not a stupid question at all! The proflo was awesome and I’d recommend it to anyone doing a swap. The only wiring you need to reuse is the harness on each valve cover for the coil packs. If you search for “coil pack harness” you’ll see what I mean. Also, I’m nearly certain they were the same left and right, so if you don’t already have them it should be easy to find used. Ok, good luck!!
@@BobWilson84 Thanks! You've already helped me with that little bit of info!
@@BobWilson84 one other question, what about the knock sensors? Did you use them or delete them?
@@madrabbit9007 The pro flow doesn't use knock sensors, they are eliminated. I choose to cover the engine valley with a fancy plate just for that purpose.
@@BobWilson84 good to know. Thanks for the help.
Got mine on the road this week!

Congrats man! You beat me to it!!!! Sounds great.... is that open headers? also looked like a beautiful day for a victory lap.
BobWilson84 well, I didn’t take my Jeep apart bolt by bolt like you! Open headers for now, going to a shop at lunch to quote putting in an exhaust, I may put an electronic cutout in just in case I want to be obnoxious in the future. My wife said the same thing about the nice day! I’m glad I have an “isolated” hobby during the craziness!
what kind fuel pump and regulator are you running? do you have a return line?
I used the Edelbrock regulator with a return. The pump was a standard Walboro 255 in-tank
Did you make the harness or had it made??
The engine ecu harness was provided by Edelbrock and the chassis harness was Painless universal bulkhead
@@BobWilson84 oh ok I'm in the process now of doin a 5.3 to a ax15 swap in my 94 yj an the wiring has me worried a little
Yea, keeping the old Jeep computer harness would be tricky.... but possible with enough time and dedication.
