1999 Chevy Silverado Vortec 350 Converted to Holley Carburetor , 262 Cam, HEI Distributor, Headers 

Nice job guys! I converted my 1997 5.2L Magnum Dodge Ram 1500 to Carb. Just use the computer to read sensors and feed the gauge cluster. I got tired of only being able to find chinese crank sensors for the 5 speed model that I have, sensors that crap out in a week or two. I got tired of changing them after 5 times. Put in a '73 Charger R/T electronic distributor, Accel Gen III HEI module, stand alone alternator controller, Dual Plane RPM performer manifold, 625cfm Carter AFB Carb. No longer have any problems and I can find parts at any auto parts house. The power increase was substantial.

I did the same dual air filter thing on my 1985 Chevy C10 with a 97 350 and aftermarket Vortec Summit heads. It's better than paying for the expensive tall air filter

Thank you!!!!!!! Now I know what to do this summer!

No one has ever said that can't be done. But what can't be done is the instrument panel. Genius

That is awesome,,,thanks so much for posting

I have a 97 vortec 5.7 with an aftermarket hei distributer. Did you have any problems with the stock distributer gear if it’s a roller cam? People say you must use a melonized gear. Plus did you change the front timing chain cover? Mine only has a molded in notch on stock cover and not a degree tab. Thanks

Those wheels are awesome. I've got the same Ultra type 50/51 on my OBS but mine are six lug. Very cool build.

I 've never seen a carburetor on a ls motor good video

What are you doing with the bulk head harnness for the original injectors. Asking because Inside it there is 2 wires per injector. Do you just cut them off and tune it out? Or is there a spider to 2 barrel conversion harness or what?

Same wheels on my 89 Cheyenne, good look

did you have re change a lot of the wiring for this conversion?

What distributor upgrade did you use? I like your setup bro nice!

I'm about to do same thing but I'm gonna use the stock vortec roller cam at first. I'll be pulling it from a 97 k1500 sierra and dropping it into a 90 c1500 sierra . I've already got a carbed swapped 5.7 tbi and will be switching some stuff off of it to the vortec. Figured it was time since it's got a low rpm knock.

Did you have to degree the cam or were you able to drop it in and go?

Did they keep the 4l60 transmission though

what transmission you use stock? you said you tool out all the ecu’s?

How much did you pay to do all that work I have a 1998 Chevy k1500 4+4 just wondering if I can fix mine like that I like to put a383 in it

Mine has a manual transmission so I don't have to worry about the shift kit I just need to make the instrument panel and the fuel pump work

Stock flex plate and balancer or older non EFI style?

Love it man great job! Can I by chance get a parts list for this? Very intrested in the swap. I'm going to get the stand alone my trans 4l60e is built for power so want to keep it. Any help would greatly be appreciated!

You can turn any gas burning motir into a carb engine and I have a buddy who converted a 6.0l chevy 360 ci fuel injected vortec into a carb motor with no computer just msd 6al ignition box with msd coil and billet racing msd distributer and he put it in his 2003 mustang saleen that had a blown motor and trans when he boight it as a roller we was drinking beers one night at my racecar shop and had a idea. That 604 crate motor in my asphalt car is the same motor as the 6.0 L vortec 360 that came out of a chevy 2500 HD except its carb motor with 500 lift cams and a holly 850 cfm vdl carb on a low dual plane aluminum intake cuse that makes more power then a high rise dual plane does at 7300 rpms. So we got to work using the intakes and parts in my shop that are left over from a few old 604 crate motors that blew up and we basically converted it for free excelt about 200 dollars in parts we needed I didnt have and we put a 4 speed muncie in it that has all straight cut gears with dog collars for clutchless shifts and dont meed to rev match ro ahift either thats what we use in asphalt oval cars and we put a quarter master triple disc clutch with quarter master hydraulic throw out bearing and a 80s style hurst 4 speed nascar cup series shifter setup and Ford nine inch rear end floater with lightened gears and lightened nascar detroit locker in it. We know these cars are worth big nmoney and only 15000 made but this car was destroyed rear end was twisted in it from a light pole motor was blown up and trans blew up cyse the kid was doing doughnuts in a parking lot with it while dad was out of town so he sold it and my friend got it for 500 dollars lol. We had a contract wrote up saying we are both half owners of the car and if it gets sold we get half of the money each and we share it every other month and we use it to go fishing for suckers to race at the drag strip for money. He will line up his stock ford lightning next to me for a race or two i sand bag loose one by a long shot abd other by 2 car lengths then i ask ppl in line up if they wanna run for a few grand and I will ask ppl with hellcats and vetts and camaros and end up going home with a few grand. We travel to different tracks to do it

I got a 99 Tahoe engine and same trans . I plan to put this in a 63 international pickup. Can I please get a list of the parts to carb it and idea of total cost. THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!!

So you put a single tailpipe after headers and dual 3-inch?

I’d be surprised if the truck didn’t catch fire, sure ain’t any electricians at that shop

How did you run the heater hoses I know the water pump has 2 pipes coming out of it

What is that wider belt called on some 350s, like what is that belt running?😮

I'd like the wire diagram on that shifter gadget

I have a 96 automatic 4x4 looking to swap to carb how much is the shift controller and how hard is it to wire?

This is exactly what I’m trying to do. I’m trying to swap a V6 to a 350 carbureted.but I’m changing my transmission to a mechanical. Any help would be appreciated.

What did u do for the fuel system

I want to know how did you get the throttle cable to work?

Doing this right now as we speak !! Didnyou ever clear up the cluster?

how do you run the wiring to make everything work

Qué no te de vergüenza mi paisano hablamos en espirt González que kedo chingona

I have a 1998 GMC Sierra 1500 4x4 350 vortec 4l60e how could I convert my motor to carburetor If my transmission needs electronic To shift

What did you have to do to your gauges to get them to work

Thats cool man power increase?

Did you get the cam custom ground to 262 profile?

What problems did you run into

Do you have a build thread anywhere. I need details on what to do with the computer wiring.

I'd like to drop a 350 in my 2000 sierra , I wonder if those headers would fit ? what brand are they.

How is the US shift box holding up. I just ordered one and I want to know is it reliable

What is that for transmission

What state are you in

I have a 99 Chevy truck 4x4 2500 , doing a carb swap, almost complete...needing advice on best way to run throttle cable. I have a Eldenbock intake and carb

10-7-20220 radiator hose is too high, it will make air pockets ( hot spots) so the air can bleed out. I experience that with my van . I lower the radiator to the level of the radiator and No more overheating . But Very Good Job.

Yes, I am doing the same the spyder injection is garbage Did you use the stock gm throttle cable, and how did you adapt it to the carb?

What’s the muffler model number truck sound nice

got a 1999 5.7 vortec suburban would like to convert how much money are we talking about ?

the breather is just wide open? no filter?

How did you wire up the 4 L 60 to work still without the computer

What is it cost to do a swap like that

And I also converted my personal old long wheel base chevy 2500 HD 6.0l vortec converted to carb. A carb 350 vortec sounds so much better then fuel injected wgen converted with short tube headers with 8 inch circle track exaust pipes that turn out under both doors it's a beast. You live in Texas i see based on window sticker how did you pass indpection with this mine wouldn't pass cuse they said tgat it has no emissions control on it. Like a cat on it and illegal mod cuse its a carb motor wgen its supposed to be fuel injected computer trucl lol. Went somewhere else it passed

What intake gasket is on it

How is your transmission still working I thought those 4 l60e was electronic transmissions

Hey bud I am trying to do the same thing to my truck is there I could get tour number to talk to you about the setup

I have a 99 Chevy Tahoe 5.7 and im planing on puting a carburator van you give me any advice on the parts going to need for this job

Keep your old ecm to run trans everything will work just need tps kit you will have it all working speedo dash gages way less $$

How can I make my transmission work after I just went from fuel injection to carb ?

Does the flat tappet cam drop right in the vortec block?

Que le hicieron al motor para que corra así

I got a vortec out of a 97 chevy truck wanting to put it in a 64 Impala. Could u put up a complete parts list of what all u used to make this happen? thanks great video.

why not hook up the wire from crankshaft sensor to rpm side of distributor and eliminate need for shifter module?

Do you have a shop

What about fuel pressure regulator

Hey can you send me the info for that controller? I need to get me one

What fuel regulator?

how do you make the fuel pump and Dash or instrument cluster work

How did you delete the mass air flow

Name of the shop? I just want to drop mine off

Why not hook it up so your stock gauges work and u also don't need the trans controller

Gassing it in a school zone...Thats fucking smart

mine rubs rubber off dry standing still. why is this so gutless?

Yes sir I've just been doing the same thing you did I don't really I'm new at this phone stuff I'm going to try to save it somehow so I got a vortex I'm putting a 84 Monte Carlo or the elder brought carburetor probably need to talk to you somehow there's a way

Pancakes

Use the brakes for a brake stand

If you want your truck to have more power like mine messages me u can see how it breathes easy on my videos

💲???? Parts and labour???? Ball park

My stock 98 is faster

That exhaust system made me physically sick to look at. A drunk 13 year old could have done better welding

That thing is a turd well I hardly spend Tire with the tires wet

Looks like a very expensive down grade
