The subframe the same but the SS subframe already have the cuts made for the 5.3. All you have to do is straight drop out everything from donor straight in to what ever you have easy, if u have this body style
@@teewild290 yeah same body style. I fw the 3.8 , I sold my girl my 08 ss and wanted to make sure I didn't have to change nothing but the motor and components that come with
@@quis8589 now the dash and other guts you have to figure if u want to retain those or not most ppl just change it to keep it all original but I retained mines
@@teewild290 yuh that'll be wuts up. Try to put a sts or eldorado etc motor in it. Pull up on some of them 06-09 ss. You should post more videos on this. This will do some numbers
@@cooperbee408 thanks man♥️ the3.4s they good engines, I always wonder why gm put those lil motors in these cars they body is too heavy for them in my opinion. Whats the idea to swap in?
It was never really done before good engine to play with even though it's a complex engine, ppl say it will never fit..well here it is. Had a donor car laying around n had this 1, Since both car was kinda set up the same and this 1 was lighter.
Plan ahead and which options you wanna go l67/l32, ls4(5.3) or this one. All are unique motors. Look up some parts that'll give you extra power before u go in with the project
What did you have to do to change out the cluster? Same exact car except 05 and I want to do the same swap, also did you use the ls4 with the 4t65ehd trans? Or did you use a lighter 4t65e?

They should've put the V8's in the Impalas a long time ago.
That's tough G, out of all the swaps I've seen I've yet to see this one somehow
Thanks bro bro 💯
Did it drop right in or did you need to modify the subframe?
Had to mod the subframe some to fit it on.
@@teewild290 thanks

Thank you greatly appreciated bro💛
This is dope and its fwd idk why I never thought of this... sounds mean

@@teewild290 clr is cuts just for CLR clearance? Just so it fits right? And you meant 4.6 not 3.6 right?

I’m trying to Motor Swap and Trans swap my 3.4 05 Impala, I’m new to the car scene, what would be my best option?
Well you got two options this one or the ls4 5.3 power train if u plan to keep it fwd

Hola que motor v8 le colocastes y que transmision y que tipo de computadora mi pregumta es porque tengo un carro igual a ese
Es un N* /4t80e y sintoniza la computadora de la etapa 3
So I can take an ss impala 5.3 and swap it out with my 3.8 with no cuts or nothing?

So a ls4 be done the same way you just use a ss subframe and ls4 obviously and you won't need to cut the subframe like you did for the north*
@@torreypires520 right
I like this bruh. Thinking outside the box. U gotta do a MC now.
Thanks man I working on getting 1 and if I get a hold of a black one
@@teewild290 yuh that'll be wuts up. Try to put a sts or eldorado etc motor in it. Pull up on some of them 06-09 ss. You should post more videos on this. This will do some numbers

How difficult was the wiring process? Looking to swap my 05’ Monte
It not too bad some stuff had to be converted to fit.
@@teewild290 I'd love to hear more about the project. Any plans on making an in depth video?
@@BookieSwish I'm sure I will
My Dad had a 2000 Impala ls that color. Very nice swap
only northstar swaped impala on youtube NICE!
you can put an northstar engine in an impala?
what made you want to do the swap?
It was never really done before good engine to play with even though it's a complex engine, ppl say it will never fit..well here it is. Had a donor car laying around n had this 1, Since both car was kinda set up the same and this 1 was lighter.
There were several versions of this engine. L37, LD8, LH2 & LC3. Do you which one you have?
The older 99 ld8 vin y 3.11final drive trans
Very nice job on the swap. I’m really considering this. I found a remanufactured one with a 100,000 mile warranty for $3000.
@@truckermiket7558 go for it man😊 what car u swapping it in?
‘05 Impala
However, the LC3 is 469hp. It’s a RWD, but I wouldn’t mind putting that in my ‘88 chevy pickup.
Is it worth it?

Beautiful 🔥
Thanks bro
Where are you located?

What tips do you have for someone looking to a v8 swap
Plan ahead and which options you wanna go l67/l32, ls4(5.3) or this one. All are unique motors. Look up some parts that'll give you extra power before u go in with the project
What did you have to do to change out the cluster? Same exact car except 05 and I want to do the same swap, also did you use the ls4 with the 4t65ehd trans? Or did you use a lighter 4t65e?
Modified the backing part of the dash so the connectors to the cluster clears. This 1 a northstar 4.6 with the 4t80e trans no more 4t65e.
You went from a reliable motor to a trash motor
This IS a VERY reliable motor now, unlike you that are scared to fix them.
Mayn I would like to have my 01 Impala sound like that
good vid....and always remember...Jesus Christ is God ..... Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ, !!!!!!!!!
So how is that northstar life treating you
Doing me good man how yourz?
Tee Wild is really good and it’s good to see more people rolling with a FWD V8
Sounds exactly the same as my Pontiac Bonneville GXP
Same engine I believe
Is this Bun B beat? I can't remember but I know whoever song it is went hard af lol dope ass swap man that 2000-04 Era was weird with US muscle cars but shit you makin it right.
