at the brake module there is two brown and two brown and black wires for the highspeed lan network all you have to do is connect the browns together and the brown with black wires together to bypass the abs module
😁 Yeah... I had to do it for 2 reasons. 1 it's kind of cool to see engine running on the floor. And 2 I have not done an LS before so I wanted to make it run ..... to make sure that I actually could make it run🤷♂️. And after all that I didn't even use the impala pcm/engine harness. I ended up using a truck pcm and modified truck wiring harness. I did the same 'engine running on the floor' with my Celica Street rail. Good way to make sure you have all the pieces/parts to make it go.
Uhh 🤔hmm... well.. maybe🤔... no.. Not in the buggy/ rail. I'm thinking.... put it in something with doors heat and AC. I'll start the project soon (I hope lol) getting a few more things done on my truck project.
Get rid of the Afm system and rebuild the top of the engine around 150,000 the valvetrain is wore .GM stunk it up with Afm them engines have half the life of a 2002 ish 5.3 .You did amazing work most mechanics would be scared of this one.
Thank you, this is exactly why im just gonna get a rwd with an actual tranny on it lol theres no way ima rip the whole dash out in my garage and do all that
👍 The only reason I tore out the whole dash is I wanted the complete wiring harness..... Eventually, I ended up using a different wiring harness and pcm(2004 Chevy Truck), so ya, it was wasted time in the end🤷♂️. Converting new harness. ruclips.net/video/IL79MJir44s/видео.htmlsi=BXqR5k_EDovfRbq-
Do you have to pull the wiring harness with the engine or can you unhook it all? And get away with the harness hanging out in the car while you work on the engine?
Was there something wrong with the Impala? It looked to be in great condition, even the tires were good. Would hate to detroy a perfectly good Impala SS even if they have flaws. Mine is fully built

@@GarageFab Um well Ah... 🤔. Excellent question..... I wasn't thinking about that when I answered. I've done a fair amount of looking around online and haven't found any definite answers on that. What I have found is. The pin out of the 20 pin plug is different. From the pin out diagrams I've seen (not sure yet if I am right) some wires are in different pin locations/ have to be moved. Some wires have to be move to the 20 pin from the pnp (park neutral) switch on the truck. ( My transmission does not have the external switch). I am not sure yet if what I'm doing will work. Some other changes may still be needed. I will show what I am trying (if it works) when I get this car running and moving. I don't want to be responsible for destroying somebody's transmission. I really don't want to be responsible for destroying mine either... but🤣. Let me add. What makes the results even more unpredictable is, I know almost nothing about automatic transmissions.
@@TSRGarage Hahaha!! Well thank you for taking the time to share all that info. It means a lot. One final question, when you swap to the truck manifold, are you required to also swap to the truck harness? My current goal is to get both drivetrains into the truck working using ALL of the Impala components. Once I succeed and the truck is drivable, then I’d like to venture into performance upgrades like the intake swap. Hopefully you won’t mind me bugging you once in a while. Thanks again man!

@@GarageFab I've seen videos of truck intakes on ls4 cars. Keeping in mind that I'm rather new to the world of ls. Learning as I go..... 2 things I can think of. 1st would be injector connectors.

LS4 has a small V6 transmission bellhousing bolt pattern different than all other LS engine's it will work but you will have to use a RWD 2.8L or 3.8L transmission out of a V6 S-10 or Camaro 4.3L will not work. Most people don't use LS4 engine's for swaps because of this reason they use the LS engine's out of RWD trucks and cars because they have the same bellhousing pattern as the old school SBC engine's.
Is it possible to put a 5.3 in an 07 3.5 LT?? Been debating it, 3.5 still runs fine but would love to get a 5.3 and build it up with my son over time and install it when the time is right.
