    I came across the TL-200T for $200 to recondition a dead acid battery on my channel. It revived the battery and in my opinion i got a free welder out of it, since i avoided buying a $200 battery. The 200T comes with the tig torch, and it has an automatic gas switch/valve and its a high frequency start.

    I'm doing my first it's just a repair and replace though not a swap in the 2005 Silverado I did put a cam in there so I guess I'm going to have to invest into tuner products next. #operationls

    What all wires do I need to hook to the ls fuse box

    • @ItsyaboyR.B
      @ItsyaboyR.B  Рік тому +2

      I used the factory fuse box wire from the C1 block wire A9 which is pink. Hook that wire to the 12v distributor wire. C1 block B11 wire which is red is constant power. I looped that to the screw to battery on fuse box. C3 block F1 is power to fuel pump. Its a grey wire. That's all the wires I used.

      I used motor mount adapter plates from amazon, jegs double hump transmission crossmember, s10 shorty headers off ebay, got the original drive shaft cut, external fuel pump from Amazon. Since then, I changed a couple things.

      doesn't look like it. get a cowl hood or
      remove the "vortec" cover that's on the top. when you have just the intake below, cut off unnecessary brackets on top of the intake. this is called "shaving". also, you may have to cut parts of the hood structure above, without cutting all the way through the hood of course. it may be possible to fit a stock hood then

      Honestly it depends on the type of mounts you use. I find it better to use the Dirty Dingo style engine mounts. This style allows you to not only set the forward and back positions but also the height. Clam shell style mounts often restrict hood clearences when using truck style intakes. But as they say there is more than one way to skin a 🐈.
