- In this video I will be working on getting my LS Swapped third gen Camaro on the road. I will replace the fuel pump. Then find and fix a vacuum leak. Take a shot test drive then try and go on a first cruise with my daughter.
Love your new channel!!!! I used to have a 1989 Camaro R/S that I bought brand new!!!!! I miss that car!!!!
Well thank you very much. I'm glad you are enjoying the channel. I've owned several of these 3rd gen Camaros over the years and have loved them all. Thanks for watching.
Motor looks badass...good work & progress!
Thanks
Congrats!
Thanks
Awesome almost there.
Getting close for sure. Thanks for watching 🤙
Heck yea man, glad you got your build Workin! 👍🏾
Thanks, I'm still working on the 6 speed swap but I'm very happy with how it's turning out.
Keep it up buddy
The hard parts over.
Good video brotha!!!
Thanks
I'm looking for a 1989 one have L.S3 you started the new flavor prices are going up crazy
Prices have definitely gone way up since I bought this car. I am happy to see people finally seeing what I see in these cars though. There was a long period of time that the third gen was looked down on.
Dang I missed the last video that you got it running! Congrats man!!!
Thanks, I'm definitely ready to just drive it. I'm so sick of working on it. Thanks for watching.
16:06 no comment 🤣😂
Gotta love all those "build bugs" that always pop up. You'll have it sorted out and running great before you know it!
It's just part of building custom cars. Thanks for watching 🤙
It's great feeling when you first start, and butterfly during the first drive, all the best to you and your loved ones
You're exactly right, thanks for watching 🤙
WHAT ABOUT THE BRAKES FOR ALL THAT POWER
It has 4 piston Bimbos off a 10-15 SS Camaro. Also rear disk from a 4th gen Camaro. I have a video on that as well.
Factory Trap door?
No when I got the car someone else had cut a huge hole. I just fixed it. No 3rd gen Camaro came with a trap door but they should have.
Great first ride. Few bugs but she's running. And smiles all round. Look forward to the next video. Be safe and stay well.
The hard part should be over. There are always things to get worked out. Thanks for watching Brian.🤙
That’s awesome for a first shake down. Few more bugs worked out and she’s going to be a great driver. I love the sounds of the exhaust. Stay safe ✌️😎👋
It's on the down hill slide now. I am very happy with how it is turning out. Thanks for watching.
Love the content man question where u get your exhaust tips from.
Thanks, they come with the Speed Engineering kit.
They may sell them separately I'm not sure.
Could u send the full info and parts list for the swap I have a 92 convertible would like to do the same thing
I am planning on doing a build breakdown on this in a few weeks. I will be providing parts I liked and would recommend. The parts that fell short will be mentioned but there will be no part numbers for those. Thanks for watching and good luck with your project.
Man, your build is so similar to mine, parts used, issues etc. Including the Trans. Mine has a "new" 4L65E allegedly "built" for 500 HP however, It would not shift past 2nd gear, THEN it would quit working altogether so, long story short, I ended up screwed by a large corporate transmission rebuild shop I purchased it from, and had to find a LOCAL trans shop that would actually help me, of course, they are knee deep and it will take weeks to get to, so I sit without my project during the maybe three months of decent weather till it goes back to frozen again. Living precariously through you now! Thanks
I think I know what's wrong with the one in my car. We will see when I get to work on it again. Hopefully you will get yours together soon. Thanks for watching
Niceeee .. what lights are those? I have a 82 z28 I’m working on rn.
The headlights are on Amazon. Here is the discussion. Hope this helps. ZJUSDO 4x6 Led Headlights with White RGB Halo Music Mode Seal Beam Replace H4651 H4656 H4666 Rectangular Led Headlight for Truck Peterbilt Kenworth Ford Monte Carlo Oldsmobile
Can you show me your tablet set up? I’m thinking I want to run one where my radio / heater controls are for my holley gauges.
It's an Atoto F7 head unit. I got it from Amazon. Then I use a head unit flip kit from ebay. Lots of different people make the flip kit. Not a bad job at all.
I think that's what you were asking.
Awesome video brother. Thanks for sharing. Glad you got her just about straight. Keep the content coming. Hope you have an incredible weekend. Much love and RESPECT
Thanks Tim, I'm so happy with the progress that I've already made. Thanks for watching 🤙
Just checking out a couple of your vids. Man, Im so jealous right now. I commented I had 86' Z28 on another video and this makes me miss that car so much. Yours is definitely next level compared to what I had. Mine had the original blown engine swapped for a LT1 that was basically stock. It still had plenty of balls for what it was. Also had plenty of problems too 😂. All white, no T tops and the same hood as yours. Had it for over 10 yrs before I got into an accident. I damn near cried that day. I will never forget all the good times I had in the car (highschool and after). Thanks for the trip down memory lane. It gave me a smile when I really needed it 😁.
Cheers to you my friend 🍻. Subbed!! Also, I still have have my 94' TA. Awesome car but not the same vibe as the Z28.
I've been dreaming about doing a LS swap on a 3rd gen for 20 years. When I bought this car last year this was always going to be my goal. It has made this car what it was always supposed to be. Thanks for watching and am happy I got to take you back in time. 🤙
@@ForsakenSteel I will definitely be following to see how it turns out. Good luck with the project!
Sounds great. Did you run with the fitech?
It has a FiTech Ultimate LS system. I have had a lot of issues with it and will try something different next time.
@@ForsakenSteel good thats what i bought for my kids truck We are going to 1st fire it soon.
I have an older throttle body fitech on my 350 and it driving me crazy. I have to adjust the IAC constantly and for some reason this summer it struggles to hot start. Frustrating
Awsome to se you driving it after all your hard work. Keep up the good work shout out to you from Mexico…..
It still needs a little work but I'm finally getting to enjoy it. Thanks for watching!
I just picked up a 86 firebird shell for $100. Going to be putting it back together. Nice to see a regular guy like me building something nice to have fun with. Good job man, will be watching all your videos. Check out mine!
Thanks for watching I definitely check you out. Good luck with your project.
I guess now that you got it running you can get the 6 speed in it. I bet you are very happy getting it to run and driving.
I'm going to try to get this transmission working first. I just want to enjoy the summer car show season. This fall I'll swap the transmission back. I'm just honestly tired of working on this car. 😂
How much horsepower are you laying down?
I haven't had it on the Dyno but similar builds are between 450 and 500. So probably somewhere in that range. Maybe I will get it on the rollers one day.
What seats do you have in ? I have gto seats that look little like those but sit high .
They are GTO seats. I lowered the driver seat rails. I didn't do the other seat yet but probably will in the future.
You had me rolling with “I can’t believe y’all let me do this…” 😂
That exhaust sounds awesome man! With the tuning to bring out the lope at idle it’s gonna sound downright mean!
…side note; compared to the first video, your beard has progressed as nicely as your build! lookin sharp brother 😂
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the video and I could make you laugh.
It was cool to finally see it in the road. What front seats are you running?
They are 2006 GTO seats. I modified the driver's seat rails but that's not actually necessary. It's in one of my older videos.
Yayyyyy David way to go on your first drive. Is it in your plans to put the stick shift back in now that it drives?
I'm going to try and straighten the automatic out for now. I'll drive it for the summer with this transmission and this fall I'll do the swap. I just want to drive this thing and do fun car stuff this summer. I'm sick of working on it.
@@ForsakenSteel i understand but don’t give up on the stick take as much time as you need but ultimately that’s what kept me hooked is the tranny swap and all your hard work
Just another LS swap. Nothing to see here..
Yep nothing like reliable horse power.
I bet he’s a ford guy
Awesome! I have a 92 I'm restoring except I went backwards and carb swapped lol. I'd rather run carb over an old TBI system but an LS swap would be choice. I just wanna take that first ride like you did in this vid. Good job!
I love the 91/92 car's. That first ride is always a little nerve racking and fun. Good luck with your car and have a great 4th of July. 🤙
