Jared is the best thing that happened to the youtube automotive scene this year.
This guy is seriously dedicated to making sure the viewers learn from him and even his mistakes.
If only he would blink more often :D
Yea no disrespect of any of the others but I would extend that further back than "this year"...
In my humble opinion Jared comes across as both the most down to earth relatable as well as one of the most knowledgeable ones when it comes to "hands on how things work" and even more interestingly how they "can be worked".
Watching one his videos never fails to örighten my day, it feels like You've had a good chat with one of Your really good friends. :)
@@greghercher2068 How long has he had a channel?
Jared 4 president!
that ad with the headphones on the dog was genius!
How to make an ad better 101: Just add a cute dog like Pyrrha 🤣
I’m so glad Jared took over this channel
Hey man I'm not the person to go out of my way and type a comment and especially one like this but you are one of the very few people on UA-cam that is true to your work and authentic. I really like the fact that you and tavarish work together to. Once again man you're my favorite UA-camr and I would love if you could like this comment
A fresh set of eyes will help too . I can't count how many times it helped me or I have helped someone else see something you are just missing because of frustration
I got to say, it’s really impressive that Jared alone could do all the work, whereas the other shop would take around the same day Jared took and build it with team, he’s doing it all by himself. I am really staggered
What no one, except Jared tells you is, theres no such thing as a cheap OR easy LS swap! It still amazes me to this day hearing people spout off this BS that all you need is an afternoon at the junkyard and you're good to go.
Great video Jared, fun project, keep these coming man.
Do something on the Yugo in the background please! They are always fun to see. They are like finding a unicorn you never want to see.
Being a complete novice I can not understand half of this but I’m fascinated and glued to every episode - keep going Jared !!
Jared with the FRESH haircut 🔥🔥🔥
So awesome to be walked through this entire process! Really shows us how much work goes into this. Love the QOTD as well, so true.
Jared is constructing. A kick ass scout 👍 he’s making sure the truck doesn’t lag power
Jared "Let's slip it in the hole, see how big of a struggle it is to get in there and how much wiggling we gotta do"
Me: Don't say it....DON'T SAY IT...
THATS WHAT SHE SAID!!!! :')
stuart cochrane exactlyyyy
Boyz...I think we have a LS swapped Yugo coming our way. Hang on.
it certainly fits jared's advice of making questionable choices...
I had a boosted vr6 swapped yugo. Death trap
This has quickly become my favourite automotive tech channel. Ok well maybe after Binky. Jared is a great tech/presenter/cameradude and the editing is snappy and funny. Also there's several adorable dogs.
There is a Dorman reproduction LS2 intake that flows like the trailblazer ss intake but the size of a car intake for clearance. The truck manifolds are cast steel so you can flip them up and forward and mount two swirly boys on them. Love the direction this build is heading.
i love this build Jared! it's nice to see people building stuff with scrap yard parts, not ordering $3000 titanium stuff! excited to see more of this!
Johnny Rev and Earl Leeker! WHAT!!! UA-cam classics for sure
would love to see a video on how you build the wiring harness for this LS? i think people who are curious about these LS swaps (which i think there is lots of!) would also appreciate that
The wisdom to step away and come back obviously comes with experience! Keep at it man, this is a great series!
I worked at a Vette shop for a few years in college. And one of the easy upgrades for the cast engines is swapping the ls6 heads on.(243) Definitely worth the time to swap the heads away from the 317 heads.
Absolutely blows mind the level of work Tavarish and you put in Jared. Whole new level.
🙌🤘
Jared! Pyrrha! Love the episode. You are so right about walking away. I can't count the number of projects I've ruined because I get so frustrated I just start banging on them like an angry chimp. I love what's happening with the truck and can't wait to hear it turn over for the first time and see its first burnout! Thanks for the great video, everyone's efforts are greatly appreciated! All the best. Cheers!
Somehow my corrupt mind saw the classic Rolls and thought about what it would be like with an LS twin turbos swap or a Cummins 1000ft-lb+ Diesel-turbo swap .... I’m to see if you make a fuse box and relay box with electrical schematics for and projects that get sold so any mechanic can easily troubleshoot shoot issues compared to other restomods requiring tons of time going through and tracing back each wire.
It would be cool to see some car mods using a $400 rapid prototyper to creat electrical boxes to help locate all fuses and relays if old boxes cannot be modified or used.
Thank you for the show and with you well
Nothing can stop Jared once he gets started. That is pure determination.
18:30 you got a James Pumphrey moment right there
Mo Powah Baby!!!
Jared, I think I've said this before but your such an awesome dude! I think it's great to be so knowledgeable yet so humble and open minded.
Jared is the most under rated mechanic on UA-cam. Your work and video's is damn good i watch every video. He deserves a mill subs
1st time viewer and just gotta say you show is done very well, with cool little camera tricks and very clean audio with detailed and useful info someone like myself who loves cars and would like to eventually make my own retrofit with a good background in electronics and wiring and a basic understanding of fabrication and welding
Possibly run the manifolds over the frame like a gasser or go to the extreme and cut the frame in front and behind the cab mounts and move the cab mounts to the inside of the cut section along with. Boxing the existing frame for strength. It would give you the clearance for the long tubes but it would be more work than youre probably wanting to do.
Mhmmmm, i mean, zoomies and a supercharger would look sick😂😂
lots of room for zoomies in that huge bay
Got to love the 6.0 LS I am swapping a twin turbo one in my 1971 GS and one in my 1981 Ram. Bad ass engines
Clearance the firewall for the truck manifold + clearance the frame rails for the long tube headers= almost OEM!
Take the truck manifold, flip them sides pointing to the front. Many guys do this for cheap turbo manifolds. Would solve your issue and allow for a turbo.
the dog cam is a nice addition! also i subbed today
8 individual straight exhaust pipes, canted to 45 degrees, exiting through the hood 70’s top fuel style!
Hi Jarrad
Two things one I am so glad and I bet you are is that you are good at wiring
With regard to the headers how about the pipes going over the chassis rails
And on the outside not inside
Cheers 👍👍😍😍
And the advice is the best advice ever and i even do it at work just walk away go do something else for a bit and then come back to it and usually the problem will solve it self
CUT THE FIREWALL! Give yourself the room you need to get everything put in that YOU want - not what the space is limiting you to. Also, could you notch the frame to give yourself a bit more room for your headers? Cut, then reinforce.
Don't you always say to make questionable choses?
You do a great job! Love to see you work - I can watch you work all day!
So I have a shop. I have Miata, I have a gen 2 coyote. All the videos say 3-4 hours and a piece of cake. This is the best video on reality of swapping motors. Videos have dupped me into thinking I can do things way above my skill level when I just can't. Especially porn.
Love this build Jared! Always packed with exciting content. And as a fellow spaghetti master, thanks for taking the time to clean up the wiring. Glad it wasn't overlooked.
Hang in there Jared, this truck will be worth it when you get done!! It's gonna be AweSome!
That truck makes the engine look so small. You could do some massive turbos in that engine bay. Heck I bet you could supercharge with a blower and still close the hood with everything tucked inside. I’d really like to see the turbos mounted in the bed of the truck.
I don't know a whole lot about structural rigidity issues, but that frame looks like it has a whole lot of real estate to take from and still retain stiffness. Cut and box the clearance you need for the headers and call it a day.
You are the hero that truck needs, sir.
I'm looking at this and not doing it... but if I was , I'd make clearance all around that firewall area I think that will let you run what ever manifold you could think of then. The log manifold idea has a lot of merit if your planning to turbo this rig down the road. If turbos are the way your leaning then you don't need massive primary tubes coming out of the motor and that could help your clearance issues with the frame rails.
I would look at Taylor Ray's video about modding the lifters and rockers if you really plan on leaning on this motor. Also if you have time check out the Skid Factory channel for some log manifold action from Turbo Yoda himself.
Just make some “log” manifolds, MCM turbo yoda style
LOL I was just thinking this as I scrolled to the comments.
Tuuuuuurboooo YOOOOooOoOoOoOOooDDAAAAAAAA
fed up with your fancy manifolds, turbo yoda is....
For those that don't know, turbo yoda chanel is called The skid factory
tea pot black yeah it is and they build some awesome cars
Holley Hooker headers would fix the exhaust issues you are having! We use them here in the UK to squeeze an ls into Land Rover Defenders. The hug the block a lot better than the stock ones.
Jared is a mechanic genius!!!!!!!!
Try some finderwell headers. Route them over the frame then back like they are going to side pipes.
PLEASE Twin Turbo that thing! Two turbos, don’t touch the paint=ultimate sleeper!
When he took the earphones the doggo was like “HEY! I was listening to that!” 😂
You are the man keep it up!!! Also make the room put the truck i take. Don't cut corners when you've done so much.
It’s true, swapping an engine is no walk in the park. I always find it funny when someone says “just LS swap it, it’s cheap and easy.” Usually it’s people who have never done one that say that.
I'm currently in the process of LS swapping a caprice wagon. If you don't care about having working AC and factory gauges its not a horrible job. It's definitely more expensive than people lead you to believe. I knew going in it'd be more expensive than I thought, but I still wasn't expecting to spend anywhere close to what I've got in it now.
Bringing jared on fulltime was a great idea!
Also, Jared needs a badass mullet...I can see the turbos spoolin’ and hair flow in’ now!
Thank you yet again Jared, I look forward to each of your videos. I may never build any of the motors you do, but I feel like I could get seriously close to building one watching you though.
Turbo Yoda says 'log manifolds'place turbos high up.
Or put exhaust outside the frame rails.
Wait who said it was easy? That truck is awesome btw
Maybe you can use a set of headers like they use in gassers, they go up the frame and out to the sides
Small block Mopar engine swaps used to be common for old I H vehicles. Now I know why.
This is my new favorite build on UA-cam! Great project! Makes me wanna ls swap my third gen firebird.
Be the change you want the world to be.... Real talk.
Hey Jared why not run the manifolds through the wheel wells like have them come sort of straight out then down and out the sides or if you want them to come out the back then you could just run them down the frame rails and that might actually fix your header problem but I do know I'm pretty late on this and you might have figured it out already but thought you might like that idea and could use it but great job man it's looking awesome stay safe man
You had the same.idea I did. A header kit and run them straight out over the outside of the frame.
This thing is going to scream!
Can you mount the exaust manifolds to go on the outside of the frame like a gasser drag racer?
Congrats Jared! The '71 international looks amazing!! I hope you can change the firewall and drop that truck manifold in!! Would look so much cooler! As troublesome as it would be...
Jarred looks like he went to the Latin barbershop
Get a Holley dominator it will make your wiring simpler. And go for turbos.
Hey just out of curiosity you could try some headers intended for a trip five swap. They look to hug the engine a bit better.
Run an after market computer like a haltec or holly so you can get way more power and control for when you turbo it.
LS belongs in everything. To bad most engineers are short sighted and use other powerplants where now we have to fix their design. Also, exhaust should always go out the hood, so you can see the flames. Big Blower with flame throwers on the side of it. Sounds like what an international scout should have been.
Easter Egg!!! A European classic from the 20th Century - Yugo ( Zastava Koral), seen at 5:41 :) Wonder if it will make its way into the Wrench Every Day series...
"classic"
This video just like all your videos are very informative. I love how you explain to those who dont know to much about the Ls the know how and what is what. Great video can't wait to see the truck running brother.
Here is a crazy idea, why not extend the tubes on the header near the mounting flange and the headers on the outside of fram. Kind like the side pipe idea on the 60's corvettes
Am I the only one who doubts those headphones actually fit on his big ol head? Lol. But I'm loving this build... Also with the room you have you could fit a giant supercharger under the Hood too.
You see him wear them in this episode... -_-
Change mounting go up and forward with motor this will help with exhaust and running the better intake and not having to take so much of the wall out
Stage 2 of the muscle truck should have a texas speed 427CI motor, a set of turbos and a 9 inch rear end
Thank you ! I got so bored I started watching young static videos
There is a company in Michigan that makes moulded adapters for ev1 to truck electrical connectors. They're like, 20 bucks for a set of eight.
Build your own exhaust manifold that goes over the frame rail
Hi Jared nice video 📹 and workmanship
I would love to see Jared working on that YUGO in the backgraund
Coyote swap the Yugo? Hellcat it? :o
Congrats on being a uncle! Congrats to tavarish for being a daddy!!
Such a positive guy, great spirit
Nice Hair cut! Walking away for a bit always helps.
Yes , TURBOS!!!! Mounted in all that space above the engine.
Don't ever underestimate how much people want to see dirty things become clean on camera.
And vice versa to be fair
Stainless steel headers.com..............build the headers up and out over the frame rails like the old mopars.........not easy but a solution if you are going NA......Loving the build !
Regarding the emissions delete. 71 might not have had any emissions requirements, but in states that do have emissions testing, if you do an engine swap to a newer engine, the emissions requirements for the model year of the engine is what they go by. So here in CO if you were to attempt what he's doing using the same parts as he is, at least after you jumped through all the hoops and inspections and got it to the point you had the paperwork to actually register it and have it emissions tested, you'd have to pass model year 2004 emissions. Or whatever year it is for the truck block he ended up going with. This isn't going to happen with emissions deletes since they check for this equipment, as well as the tail pipe tests. Just an FYI for anyone wanting to do a swap in an emissions state.
Please do an 8 into 1 forward exhaust like Tanner Foust's VW Passat! That would be unique and sound oooh sooo Goood!
Just the stock manifold will fit if you flip them to the front for a y pipe where you can install a turbocharger
Ls7 manifolds cut flanges add v bands reroute exhaust maybe..? You'll figure it out because you're jarred just throwing ideas out there into the universe!?
This engine needs compound-turbo's with inter-cooling and after-cooling!! Max spool in full rev range!! You got the space for it.
For a channel that Freddie started, he's been absent for most of the videos lately. Kid or no kid, he needs to step up!!!
Dayyyumm!!! Jared’s looking sharp with that fresh haircut!
The cute fluffy dog, enjoying the Kove headphones. Awesome!
Love the Pyrrha cam!! Needs to be a regular feature!
Love the dog collar cam!
Definitely needs to be a thing.
We need more Pyrrha cam! Great video Jared, keep up the good work!
