Reminds me of my brother and i workin on my 69 super bee. In our 1 car garage) the good old days. He passed last year. His spirit lives on in all of you younger racers)
Crazy how much you’ve learned in such a short amount of time Tommy. It was what a year ago I’m not sure if you knew what a ratchet was. Now you are building a race truck. And I love Alison. I’m happy for you two. Her saying “that’s what I’m here for”, was the sweetest thing. Thank you two for allowing us to come along for the ride.
You can see the weight slowly lifting from tommys shoulders as the new parts get installed. I know the feeling. You spend so much time taking it apart you start stressing more and more cause most young mechanics dont always have a lot of faith in their abilities and will worry that they are going to bail on the project. Its so nice to see the progress finally happen. Thanks for your honesty
You are correct about the 4L80e being a TH400 with overdrive and electronics added, essentially. The reason you see a lot more TH400's is they don't require an electronic controller like a 4L80e. There are options to make a 4L80e completely manual with no electronic control. Love the build. I built the red OBS truck you showed in one of your videos, and you commented "goals".
Tommy that truck is sharp beau!! Really really nice job!! If you ever want to get your engine back further, you can cut out the recessed part in the fire wall and support what you cut out with some small channel and you can use a dog house off of a older cheverlot van. That way everything is coverd and you can basically put your engine anywhere you want. Thats what im planning on doing on my old Chevy! Pretty Work!!!
I have a LS swapped OBS Tahoe Limited with a Gen IV L96 (LS3 heads) cammed 6.0 LS with a 4L80e and mild converter upgrade. It rips and gets like 20+ mpg highway on a stock ECM/TCM with a tune. May do a turbo later on but it's a good daily/shop truck situation. Have not drag raced it yet, still sorting some things and don't want to murder the stock diff but I do want to see where it's at. But you're right a 4L80e is more or less a modern electronically controlled TH400 with overdrive. It is a bit heavier and longer. The 4L80e flexplate is the flat one and the 4L60e is the indented/concave one. That spacer is normally only necessary for some early LS truck blocks and I think you have a Gen 4 5.3 (LC9) so it shouldn't be necessary.
4L80E came behind sbc and bbc before the LS spacer really is for if you a torque converter setup for sbc, not needed if you ordered torque already for the ls setup.
nope...SBC uses a standard 4l80e flat flexplate withotu spacer....that snout support is for using a 4l60-e flexplate as it needs 0.400" distance and the 60e plate is dished...4l80e on a LS uses a flat flexplate with a 0.400" spacer between the flex and the crank
Looks like a Dion battle axe 4L 80e special LOL he does build one hell of a transmission. Tommy been following this build from the get-go can't wait to see it finish two thumbs up
Nice work Tommy !!! If I can make a suggestion I see you guys always us a pump engine hoist, Harbour Freight and has a air assisted it will lift a motor and trans...plus it works manually as well. We have one in our machine shop and works great
The 4L80E is a revised th400 correct. Because of the big bulky mass of internals it takes away some hp just to spin it. So more or less, a 400whp vehicle will make in the 380hp range when done. 4l80e. This transmission is really used in 600whp+ vehicles is where it shines the most. When your 600+ hp Malibu has to be turned down with a 700r4, this tranny doesn’t.
Install video for the Dirty Dingo crossmember. When I installed it I couldn’t find instructions either 😂 ruclips.net/video/HzvMbIK3buY/видео.htmlsi=QBXE1Pl0FWauVogu
hope to meet you and the whole family soon I bought a 4L80 for my 90 gmc short box today. I might make the old man happy with a 1971 BBC 402 in it on carb on spray
I just love how all the channels are connected but different this is the best content I love how you guys give us multiple videos every week you guys get me through my work week and never disappoint god bless thanks so much for the content 👍
Landrum race spring. I have a 1 inch ext balljoint, stock spindle, stock arms in my c10. It sits 5 inches lower and has 6.5 inches of travel. The 270lb per inch moroso springs with 2 coils cut, drop spindle and a 2 inch extended balljoint. It sat 4 inches lower than stock and had 7 inches of travel. That was in a big block c10
Luv the build,that’s how you learn. A moneymaker would be new posters I have both s10 posters but need the Falcon, Chevelle, both 55s, Malibu ALL in wheelies
11:58 when I went with solid motor mounts. I also went with a solid transmission mount under a heavy load the tail end can want to kick sideways think about an old fashion swivel when you try to twist them real good at just the flattest anal they want to kick sideways just something for thought
Keep in mind Tommy you still have 600+ lbs of sheet metal and parts to put on the front end put it together and you can still do the drop but do it now and if too low you create twice the work . I really like what you are doing and like seeing you learn along the way. I'm a sbc dinosaur like the om but still appreciate it. My nephew has a black on black obs step side he turbo LS swapped and it is badass and done so well it looks better than factory . He calls it Black Betty
2000-2004, is when Chevy hd2500 came 6.0,4l80e that I know of. Of course they used it for years I don’t know of, lol. I’ve been waiting patiently to see this OBS move under it’s own power. Doesn’t have to be right,just running for now, lol.
English is hard,even for native speakers.Take,,took,taken Tommy.This is just me Dunning-Krugering myself to feel better.I still wonder what they teach in schools over there!I studied Finnish,Swedish,English and German in school but it sounds like you guys were not taught even basic grammar over there.
Oh no…. Grammar nazi has entered the chat!! Tommy you talk like Tommy and I’ll just listen… I’m not perfect myself, please just keep popping this awesome content out!! Scotty from Lancaster.
@@scottsmith5623 Nobody is perfect,I was just wondering what you guys do in school.Finnish has a lot harder grammar yet school children can conjugate verbs better than you guys.Why are americans so proud being illiterate?
Get yoga/gym mats to lay on under the car, so much better than creepers or nothing. They are cheap, about $5 at cheap shops, and you can throw them away if they get covered in oil. You can just throw one under and keeps you off the floor. Bolts and fittings when dropped, don't bounce to the "where the f@#$ did that go" zone also.
Great job. JUST DO IT...STOP being so timid all the time. Less I don't know, I'm not sure and more I'm gonna do it and kick ass. Love your content but every time I get done watching I'm like what is going on with this guy , was he beaten at a young age,home schooled, Mormon, Amish... keep up the good work and get angry for once 👍👍
4l80 is a 4 speed with o.d. Where as a th400 is only a three speed. But both are similar in strength. 4l80 4l85 and 4l90 are some serious ls swap transmissions for racing. Looking good Tommy!! Really nice body work for your first time!?
I really like to see how happy you get after you complete something on your truck pretty soon you will get so close you won't be able to stop till it's done (the light at the end of the tunnel) good job Tommy.
Gotta say I was curious why Tommy didnt build his S10 but after watching this video and seeing the excitement he had when the suspension settled it was obvious .... OBS Chevy's are just what cranks his tractor I hope you build and maintain this truck as a drag and drive...drive...drive truck and it would be so cool if you and Allison did Sic week together like she suggested you can always alternate vehicles every other year but I believe you will have more fun driving and talking and experiencing the whole adventure together than you will separately. (remember to thank your brother / family for helping too)
Bro calm down and just do what your doing. It fits and looks amazing. She's only asking you questions for content and editing sake and ol lady frustration lol, I know. ........I can't wait to see this first timer finish this build on his own with help from only his ol lady. Life time goals. The rest of the help your seeking is just because you are second guessing yourself. JUST DO IT ! If it don't work you'll find out what happened and what not to do. I love all the work yall are doing. Its a nice change up from the other couple of channels you see around. Wait til the 2nd and 3rd and....builds come along. *Edited because RUclips will not allow freedom of speech*
Turbo 350 is a great all around transmission. Turbo 400 the strongest transmission ever Built. Then you have the 2 speed power Glide. That the aftermarket made nasty.
4l80e tip, if it has the stocked bushed drum and not a roller drum keep the rpms below 6200 for longer life span. Rev em high on stock drum and they will eat the bushings out quick.
They arent all that different. Its real simple. The only time you need that snout spacer is for mating a th350/pg/th400 to a LS if the converter company doesnt use the LS specific snout.
I have an 88 obs, with 434sbc, who did you use for the Transmission, I want to use a 4L80e and want to get a good one. Yes the trans is basically a turbo 400 with overdrive, just is heavier unit.
The truck is coming along nicely. It’s good to have help doing certain things. Nice to have your brother and girlfriend helping. Do you still need a tailgate? I have one that’s in good shape. I’m in Rochester NY close to the Brockport airport tha you raced at. Let me know
The trans probably almost as heavy as the engine hahahaha. They Arnt light at all. In my younger days I'd lift a c6 by myself. Don't do that. That's why I don't have a back anymore.. Among other, many other physical issues.
Keep in mind your gonna add like 200lbs in fluids 100lbs of engine accessories 50lbs of coolers then rad supports and fenders and bumpers approx 200 300 lbs
I 🤔 you gone like that ls.you want have the headache like the old small block.i have always ran a stroker smal block but after my 2014 ls3 all aluminum 6.2 ill never run anything else.no more headaches
Ok DRYFIRE that comment that little miss just said about getting that truck done for sick week and not in the Dart you definitely need to put a ring on that finger KID.
Bummer yes it is an actual bummer when the latest gen 2 comes out and its about a chevy pick up you should do a survey to see just who exactlys watching gen 2 garage most likely mopar folk i was hoping to see more on the new dart on gen 2 garage Tommy why can't you wheel that truck over to s.r.c racing garage keep gen 2 Mopar 2 darts and a duster and we're watching a chevy pick up being put back together never seen that before more darth vader please let's see Tommy or jeff give it a real shake down please more darth vader
This truck is going to be sweet.. But I'd gone torque storms instead of turbo. It's gonna be a street truck not a tack truck with a cage.. Gonna beimited on the track due to lack of cage. But bracket racking isn't easy either. Looks like fun though I love wstching Allison and her dad in the last viddy
The crank about spacer is for using old school transmissions with the LS engine. Yes company’s make converters now for these older transmissions so that the snout spacer isn’t needed.
Respect 🫡 Tommy I have no idea how you even have time for this channel… but great fucking job man… this is perfect extra work and great time you all have. Best life to you and all your ventures.
Put ac in you have the people to help you. You will regret it if you don’t believe me. And you and allison make a perfect team get a ring on that finger bud! Awesome content
The oil cap on your valve cover that big thing that runs up out of it you can take that off and then you can just screw the oil cap into your valve cover cause I’ve done it before on an LS. It looks cleaner and it don’t look so weird looking.
Reminds me of my brother and i workin on my 69 super bee. In our 1 car garage) the good old days. He passed last year. His spirit lives on in all of you younger racers)
Oh are you a mopar guy?
That's my favorite year of super bee
Glad it's coming together
Iam sure u have to use spacer on th350 with ls engine
Next month that cute boy Wyatt will be wrenching 😮

Lot of us don’t know what we’re doing until we get done.
Don't panic... Tommy is outside again making content!
Last month's you tube check must of been on the light side. Got to hussle to get that grip😅
its mst have been, not must of been. Hustle is not hussle. i caught that. im looking out for you!
Love seeing Tommy getting fired up about this build. Him and Allison make a great team.
Coming along nicely Tommy. Hope you and Billy get some wins this weekend. This truck gonna make for an Awesome Sick Week. 😎
Quit calling your GIRLFRIEND DUDE. LOL
Brothers wrenching together warms my heart.
Good for you Tommy its looking great. That was cool of Allison to say its time to concentrate on your ride now👍
We're so happy we get to see Miss Molly (and of course little Wyatt!) more and more in the awesome SRC family videos. 🙂

Thank you, been waiting for this truck to get some love amd can't wait for it to be running, driving, cruising and racing! Keep it going Tommy!!!
That pilot adapter is to put the 4l80 to a SBC old style. Looking really good keep it up Tommy.
4L80E came behind sbc and bbc before the LS spacer really is for if you a torque converter setup for sbc, not needed if you ordered torque already for the ls setup.
nope...SBC uses a standard 4l80e flat flexplate withotu spacer....that snout support is for using a 4l60-e flexplate as it needs 0.400" distance and the 60e plate is dished...4l80e on a LS uses a flat flexplate with a 0.400" spacer between the flex and the crank
I had to use one of these for my 5.3 to TH350 it’s for older trans to the 5.3
The spacer is for an older style trans to a modern LS. They also make a specific flexplate to where you don't need the spacer
I think the 4l80 converter hubs were different lengths for sbc vs LS.
You are not wrong about the 4l80 being a turbo 400 with a overdrive
I am happy for you tommy
Looks like a Dion battle axe 4L 80e special LOL he does build one hell of a transmission. Tommy been following this build from the get-go can't wait to see it finish two thumbs up
Flat out lovin the content.....See you next Sick week!

Truck is gonna be awesome buddy .I can't wait to see it going. Also you won't haft to cut the springs 💪
An 1/8" of pullout. Not sure that's advice I'd take from a guy pushing a baby stroller.
Install video for the Dirty Dingo crossmember. When I installed it I couldn’t find instructions either 😂

Everything I know about automotive work I learned on my own your killing it tommy
Allison is right you should get the truck finished and all lined out for sick week next year
I just love how all the channels are connected but different this is the best content I love how you guys give us multiple videos every week you guys get me through my work week and never disappoint god bless thanks so much for the content 👍
Love the videos y'all.. I have a 96 obs and your giving me good ideas for mine!
Landrum race spring. I have a 1 inch ext balljoint, stock spindle, stock arms in my c10. It sits 5 inches lower and has 6.5 inches of travel. The 270lb per inch moroso springs with 2 coils cut, drop spindle and a 2 inch extended balljoint. It sat 4 inches lower than stock and had 7 inches of travel. That was in a big block c10
Gotta have AC !!! Sick Week in about 5yrs at this rate
You need the spacer with the dish flywheel and a Turbo style transmission. The newer 4L 60s and 80s should bolt right up. Is on a flat fly a wheel
Great content Tommy! I figured youd like those sprangs! LOL It's coming together nicely!
Piece by piece you’re getting together. Good job Tommy.
Luv the build,that’s how you learn. A moneymaker would be new posters I have both s10 posters but need the Falcon, Chevelle, both 55s, Malibu ALL in wheelies
11:58 when I went with solid motor mounts. I also went with a solid transmission mount under a heavy load the tail end can want to kick sideways think about an old fashion swivel when you try to twist them real good at just the flattest anal they want to kick sideways just something for thought
Came here for that. All solid or all rubber insulated.
Tommy I'm so excited for you man!! This makes me want to pull the big block out of my OBS and LS swap it loo
Looking good Two Guns !! Keep up the good work.
The pilot lines up the converter to the engine if its not right it will wipeout your pump bushing
Proud of ya Tommy your building a sweet truck! And I even hate LS
Keep in mind Tommy you still have 600+ lbs of sheet metal and parts to put on the front end put it together and you can still do the drop but do it now and if too low you create twice the work . I really like what you are doing and like seeing you learn along the way. I'm a sbc dinosaur like the om but still appreciate it.

I had friend in Florida that built a 84 full size Chevy truck he took a hole saw and lightened the front cross member
I really enjoy and appreciate yalls videos
Lets gooooo 2guns 🇺🇸💚🏁
Thanks for new video 😊
Bill has to be the center of attention no matter what
Tommy put the link to the k member PLEASE.....AND TY MATTY FROM MASSACHUSETTS HELLO #SRC FAMILY
Coming together nicely my friend, great job its crazy how far back the engine sits pretty awesome

They arent all that different. Its real simple. The only time you need that snout spacer is for mating a th350/pg/th400 to a LS if the converter company doesnt use the LS specific snout.
You probably should have welded those motor mounted in before putting intake on ,but I may be wrong. Looking good Thomas...lol

Great video brother trucks looking good
Tommy that is a sweet looking truck you doing a great job with this build
Not complaining, but this video was fuzzy and not the normally clear type you guys make.
The trans probably almost as heavy as the engine hahahaha.
They Arnt light at all. In my younger days I'd lift a c6 by myself. Don't do that. That's why I don't have a back anymore..
Among other, many other physical issues.
It’s coming together fast now. Can’t wait to see her fire up and drive out the door.
I had my son 3 weeks ago and that doona stroller is a game changer....i use the hell out of mine
We’re did you get your solid engine mounts from? Thanks love you build
Keep in mind your gonna add like 200lbs in fluids 100lbs of engine accessories 50lbs of coolers then rad supports and fenders and bumpers approx 200 300 lbs
I 🤔 you gone like that ls.you want have the headache like the old small block.i have always ran a stroker smal block but after my 2014 ls3 all aluminum 6.2 ill never run anything else.no more headaches
Ok DRYFIRE that comment that little miss just said about getting that truck done for sick week and not in the Dart you definitely need to put a ring on that finger KID.
The Spacer is for mounting old school transmissions to LSX so th350 th400 PG to ls requires that adapter other wise not needed !
Wish I had one like that when I was your age.. She's a keeper bud.
I tried waiting, but life happens.. I got. Trapped, literally lol.
No like a 400 more like the 700r4 your dad uses but 4L60 suck so we get the heavy duty gas burn 2500 power train and you get a
Bummer yes it is an actual bummer when the latest gen 2 comes out and its about a chevy pick up you should do a survey to see just who exactlys watching gen 2 garage most likely mopar folk i was hoping to see more on the new dart on gen 2 garage Tommy why can't you wheel that truck over to s.r.c racing garage keep gen 2 Mopar 2 darts and a duster and we're watching a chevy pick up being put back together never seen that before more darth vader please let's see Tommy or jeff give it a real shake down please more darth vader
So I put the 4l80e on my aluminum 6.0l and I don't need the pilot spacer but the spacer to space my flat flexplate I needed. Lol
This truck is going to be sweet.. But I'd gone torque storms instead of turbo.
It's gonna be a street truck not a tack truck with a cage..
Gonna beimited on the track due to lack of cage.
But bracket racking isn't easy either.
Looks like fun though I love wstching Allison and her dad in the last viddy
Tommy u got it right the little spacer is really for older chevorlet transmissions but the 4l60 and the 4l80 use 2 different flex plates
This truck is awd correct? I notice everyone is building awd trucks now and most are crazy fast.
I’m glad to see you doing an LS swap Tommy! I can’t wait to see this truck done and making hits!
The crank about spacer is for using old school transmissions with the LS engine. Yes company’s make converters now for these older transmissions so that the snout spacer isn’t needed.
Respect 🫡
Tommy I have no idea how you even have time for this channel… but great fucking job man… this is perfect extra work and great time you all have.
Best life to you and all your ventures.
Making some good progress Tommy, hope to see it reving soon!
Put ac in you have the people to help you. You will regret it if you don’t believe me. And you and allison make a perfect team get a ring on that finger bud! Awesome content
I could see your old man is not happy until you finally finish your project. Proof him wrong.👍
hey bill how cool is it to be a grandpa you are a natural.
Got my 5.3 sittin in my bedroom waitin to get dropped in my obs, looks like I gotta catch up 😂
Some body has to put a Charlie Brown curl with mascara or something on Wyatt and get pictures before he gets hair 😂 ❤️
The spacer is for early converters with spacing for sbc/bbc.
LS converters have a longer snout that goes into the crank pilot.
I hope you blocked off those oil passages under the valley pan. If they don't have o rings or pins in them, you will have low oil pressure
The oil cap on your valve cover that big thing that runs up out of it you can take that off and then you can just screw the oil cap into your valve cover cause I’ve done it before on an LS. It looks cleaner and it don’t look so weird looking.
