Using a PLC and a HMI to control nitrous oxide in my C4 Corvette
Просмотров 97Год назад
Just me being nerdy on a Sunday. I programmed a PLC and an HMI to monitor my nitrous system. It checks front and rear wheel speed, bottle pressure, bottle temp and line pressure. It can run my purge solenoid and sends the signal to the Holley ECU letting it know that all parameters are met. It also gives me simple and easy to read info.

This is how I do idle tuning for a streetcar. I am a professional redneck. So, use this information at your own risk. Sorry the resolution is so low. I have a lot to learn about video editing.

LS Swap C4 Corvette Tips and Ramble
Просмотров 43 тыс.2 года назад
Just some tips and my opinions on LS swapping a C4 Corvette The radiator is Griffin part # 1-25241-X The Stall converter in the 4L80e is a FTI 3600 stall
Can you tell me which wires on the relay you hooked the two wires from the motor to.
Thanks for explaining this about the shock mount size. I was wondering why RideTech only offered full coil over kits for 89-96. Now that makes total sense. Thanks 👍🏻
" I am a redneck with a camera" I love it. lol
what about the dumbell? Will higher Rev's make the oil foam via hi-pressure?, so 3 ugga dugga's, So ur thoughts on diy LS drill thru Piston oilers? Gr8 Content btw!!
U sir r ROCKET MAN!! Ground Control 2 NOS! R u gonna go 8's for $7k?? MOTT foFityyFo w Fo Bolt MAINS w be PROUD!!!
Well gear swap OR Salt flats TOP SPEED run, w a 8 point cage + HANS device + fire XtinGusher, The Lincoln Tombstone, YEssssss, Sloppy Style 4 da WIN!!! 4.8 iron, SS2 iron LOG gt45 burnouts n Ice Cream
Love it!! nice work, Real vids and Built Not BOUGHT, Bring us MO!!!
Your paint/whole body of the car looks terrible. No need to ls swap if you're intelligent. Just a cam, stroker kit, and decent cylinder heads. You're not to bright, and your welding jobs are terrible!
what throttle cable did you use?
I had a tps glitch at idle, causing tps % to go past 2%, making it go into iac ramp down
holley still has a idle firmware issue v3 😅
A janky, cobbled together jalopy
What did you use for pvc valve brake booster connection ?
Rubber hose.
"I'm a redneck with a camera" Love it!!! you sir have my subscription!
I have a 93, just thinking about "swapping" out for a C5/C6 that comes from the factory with an LS... 😉
Thank you sir!
i have an 84, im 20 and want to do the same as you but suspension kits are so expensive. shocks are 2 grand alone, any suggestions? should i get a decent c5 and build it up or keep the c4 and swap it
I would keep the C4 and swap it. Rock Auto sells the Bilstein performance shocks for a good price if you don't want to go coil over. Honestly you could LS swap one of these cars and do a nice budget suspension and be faster than a C5 for a lot less
What size cam are you running?
84 corvettes can still be had in excellent condition shop very little money. They’re not desirable because of the goofy fuel injection system.
Great video. I just had to switch out to brass gears on both sides in my 89. The more info out there, the better so thanks!
You're certainly the keeper of the flame when it comes to hot rodding a C4. I just got a 1984 black auto vette that runs and drives for 2500 bucks. This is the perfect solution for a smog controlled junk powertrain. i love rowing gears but you cut it down to size, in large theyre all autos till about '89, no matter what the 84 will have a dana 36. I wished you had the go pro because this would have 100k's of views. This really sheds light on how much our engines have evolved and what we take for granted, it will be a tough moment for me to modify an incredibly preserved vette with just 82k miles...but it's for the best. I've owned over a dozen TBI vehicles from 1984-1995 and they all suck, but this is the worst, the single TBI L89 is a reliable unit but this cross fire is horrific, like trying to balance 3 carbs on a 3 cyl snowmobile or pwc, the Million dollar question is...what preserves the cars value, because one day, 1 couple million people will realize the 84 was the best seller year and only about 55K were produced...then where does the price go! We don't want to butcher these cars, i think you've found a solid middle ground and to that, I say CHEERS!!! To LS swap and beyond!
Hello can you sale me a jig
I need one also
Do you have a schematic you can share? The wires from the Amazon relay box are numbered, and with your wiring diagram, it would be most helpful.
most only drive them for 3-6mnths and stored in winters.great info.
Yes most people don’t put miles on their vette, I daily drive my c4. I go anywhere and drive as long as possible
Best informative video I ever saw on RUclips on LS swap, you rock
I'm here because of the coil over shocks. got any content on that?
Yup I sure do ruclips.net/video/8LwlPtaNNjw/видео.htmlsi=tvZjp0RUpu_8h1n8
Just swapped a 5.3 LS1 into our 87... runs great. But what alternator bracket did you use?
@@TrainerGuy it was from a company called Street & Performance. Unfortunately they are out of business. But there are lots of other companies out there now with similar setups.
Can’t wait for the update!! Somehow you have 3 of my favorite things in the same video, nitrous, LS, and PLCs!!
Trying to get a new camera that's why I haven't made a video in awhile. Hopefully soon
Guessing your front brakes are low.
Wait! ''This engine is about 100# heavier'' Heavier than what the L98?
100 lbs more than the aluminum LS6 I used to have in the car.
Chad, How hard is it to swap an LS engine into a C4? The mechanicals I could def do, but I'm asking more about the wiring harnesses and all of the wiring? Thx @@chadk6938
What type of exhaust headers would you use on a LS swap on a 86
Now I have a set of cheap C5 long tube headers on mine. They need a little modification but not too bad. There is a detailed thread about how to use them on the Corvette forum.
I ordered this cam shaft and man I’m glad I did your car sounds great bro
It sounds a lot better now with a better tune and the TEA stage 2 heads.
Any dyno #s guys?
funny we love doing this stuff when fuel is $5 gallon , very nice computer tinkering on the '84 it was when computer age got rolling along so your car is loving it! 😊
Smart guy thinking outside the box.
i LS Swapped my 1986 K10 to make it a daily driver last summer . i work 50 miles from home each way . i got 12,000 miles on swap so far . but if you plan on making it a daily driver dont worry about miles get an old motor that runs with all the brackets and stuff . Do the swap run the hell out of it till it dies then get a long block from summit .
trying to install by LS1. I have it connected to a 4L60e and have a couple of questions if you can help. What engine mounts did you use? I have the ICT brackets but can seem to find a good mount that will fit the C4. I need to move the block forward about a half inch to keep the heads from hitting the firewall. Second, what kind of linkage did you use for your transmission? Will the stock shifter work, or do I need to find an aftermarket shifter? Thanks for your help and advice.
I used cheap steel motor mount adapter plates that I got on eBay. First I tried a nice aluminum set be they were just too thick and wouldn't line up. But as far as a brand name I can't help. I would suggest looking for a steel set with lots of holes so you have options as to where it mounts. As for shift linkage I used a B&M ratchet shifter. I never tried to use the stock shifter. I'm sure it could be done. But you might have to fab a bracket.
Chad the C4 legend!!!! Thankyou for this simply brilliant idea.
wow thats a sick vet dude. my 95 when I turn the head lights on they stutter and make a bunch of noise. any ideas on how to fix ? thanks. I'm not sure if I'm smart enough to do all that relay/electric stuff you did but that is really cool how you did that!
Stock pushrod length on the 6.0?
84 vette is 🔥
I have the same PCV setup on my 99 corvette bc the previous owner deleted it and just had it venting to atmosphere. However, I put a one way check valve on my clean air in and on my dirty side (so the system can’t reverse). Now I’m questioning if I should take that check valves out if the system is trying to reverse at high rpm and building pressure. I don’t what to blow seals out at high rpm. I’d love to hear your thoughts on it if f you have time. I’m just running a big cam.
Well if you think about it all the older PCV systems were just check valves. But my only concern with what you have now would be if it can move enough volume at high rpm. This is what my issue was. That tiny little PCV just couldn't keep up and the gas had to go somewhere. So mine was coming out the filter. If I were you I wouldn't run a check valve on the clean side. But I would just use a catch can
@@chadk6938 I think you’re right, it’s probably not a good idea to run it on the clean side also. I think I’m going to do an experiment and setup a vacuum gauge inline (at the clean side, then dirty side) and see what exactly it’s doing at low and high rpm. With and with out the check valves. I’m really curious now after seeing what yours was doing. Also, I want to avoid over vacuuming and pulling air through the main seals. Thanks for giving it a thought, I appreciate it.
Do you still have telescopic on your steering wheel? And if so, so you know what part number?
The telescopic slide is still in there but the lever is removed. I set it where I wanted it and tightened the nut down. So I would have to remove the wheel to adjust it again. But that's not a big deal.
How about some John force burn outs in Mexico
This video is amazing. I think I am more impressed with your dash setup than anything. Even if I don’t do an LS swap…I want to build my dash like that. Wow !
photos.app.goo.gl/98vzzy4Lpd4Z2bxT8 It looks a lot different now. I upgraded to Intelitronix gauges. I have a mount for the Holley touchscreen too that isn't in this pic. Hope the link works
i Just picked up a 1986 with standard transmission! Didn't realize it was not that common. Its been sitting on a lot for 6 years and hasnt run in that long either. I am planning on doing an ls swap(mostly because shifting feels...odd. Not to mention some better reliability and something im a little more familiar with. Thank you for this overview!
