I love El Caminos! I like to think of them as the workingman's muscle car.

[@dalehall2993]

Its his wife's car...workingwomen's muscle car.

[@leroygreen1877]

4"L"65E "L" is for Longitude mounted! It kills me you didn't do a simple search on google before you spoke!

[@DDIAZ-we4dz]

Why not just use a 4l80? I feel like it would be cheaper and you got a bulletproof transmission with more room to grow.

[@seabcopeland2228]

Made no sense I put a 80E in mine was great

[@dalehall2993]

Why not a 6l80e? Why not an lt5 with an 8 or 10 speed?

[@RipRider916]

You gotta hand it to Friedburger. He knows his trans swaps. Good info dude.

[@ultwarrior3664]

That el co is dope

[@youngnation901]

What kind of rear ended does it have is the next big question. Gears?

[@samrushing7509]

Can you put out the extended version of this video.

[@multihappythoughts]

What was the approx. cost for all the work done to the car?
TK

[@HD-nm1iv]

Good trans info

[@jeffcorbett9678]

Thanks for the video. Do I need to make modifications to connect am LS3 to a 6R80 transmission (F150)?

[@jasoncroft4822]

What kind of flex plate did you run and was a spacer required?

[@DieselDayDreamin]

This is cuts from a much larger, more detailed video... They deleted the original video for this cut down Gearstar advertisement. The original had part numbers, Holley oil pan, Chevy performance plug and play wire harness kit, all kinds of helpful information and yes, a Gearstar transmission. Finnegan, where's the original?

[@larryk2937]

Ever find whole video?

[@andrewlopez6195]

With those 3 major mods (brakes, suspension, motor) how much did it cost with the brands you used?

[@alphylopez8779]

I have a 78 el Camino I am using a 4l60e trans column shifter what did you use for your shifter if you had a column shift

[@BeeBopGaming]

Will any LS engine fit in a Camino without mods?

[@dalehall2993]

beebop shopbop
YES😉🤔😕🤐🤥

[@og-greenmachine8623]

That thing cornered like a senior citizen!
👉🏽no sway bars, or is it just me🤷🏽‍♂️

[@PrincessTS01]

4l65e what is that compared to a turbo hydro 400 ?

[@brent440]

I predict a bent rim and alignment problems not related...

[@tarkuspiper8533]

Left out a lot of details

[@1fast10r]

His lb-ft ratings are off

[@mastertek383]

It doesn't matter but as a long time GM tech I hear a big pile of wrong bullshit in the specs he's calling off

[@caseygriffin1117]

Gearstar overpriced transmission
