3RD GEN CAMARO LS SWAP WIRING 

All of it. All day. Everyday.

It’s really not that hard as long as you have a pin out to go by. I’m actually still a bit confused about the speedometer wiring but other than that everything else was pretty straight forward. I’m actually about to start on the battery relocation video right now myself. Don’t have the pay per view for the Freedom 500. 😔

Hell I was about to throw it away and just gorilla tape around that hole but that’s a great idea! Thanks brother. 👍🏻

Welcome aboard!

Glad it helped brother. 👍🏻

As long as you download the correct diagram for your car you’ll be good.

Both. You’re going to set it to manual because it’s no longer controlling the transmission. You can then buy a speed sensor on eBay that screws into a th350/400/glide/etc. most are 16,000ppm. You run that to your PCM as a vss input. Then set the output to 4,000ppm and run that to your factory speedometer. You can then correct for tire size and gear ratio the same way you would for any vehicle.

Bad Luck Garage awesome thanks for your reply sir.

What did you do with the red alternator wire coming out of your stock bulkhead connector?

Yea I literally just sit in a chair and as I go through the C100 block I throw the wires I’m keeping behind my neck. 🤣

There are a few wires you may or may not choose to use but for the most part the engine harness won’t be needed.

The C 100 is two plugs in one. The smaller one closest to the engine has all your lighting in it you have to keep that one.

@@BadLuckGarage I kept that on the same but for some reason I have no power when I turn the key on but I have power to the horn hidlights, marker lights its my first time doing a ls swap

I don’t remember but it’s pretty simply. Go on eBay, spend $20 on a one wire kit that comes with a resistor and the correct connector for your alternator. Run a 12v switched ignition source to the Connector through the resistor and done. Holley sells the kit but you can find it cheaper from an eBay seller usually.

@@BadLuckGarage thank you, very much appreciated my friend!!

Yes and no

If you're referring to the exciter wire, I believe I removed it. I then used a different switched 12 volt wire to trigger the LS alternator. You will need a resistor and a connector for your new alternator. I actually covered that in a later video in the Chaos Theory playlist and even put a link to the parts I used.

Yes. Google diagram, get his of what you don’t need.

You can use any 4L80 but the 99-up will have the extra bolt hole in the top of the bellhousing to match the top LS bolt hole. The later models also have the better rear feed system. Just look for one with the top bellhousing bolt hole AND the transmission line connections that’s are front and back instead of right next to each other.

Explained in the video

Ebay and I don’t recommend it. I explained why in other videos.

I really can’t say for your particular application brother. Hell my C100 doesn’t even really match the pin out I have. As an example, the pin out says I should have two grounds coming out of my bulkhead....one labeled for engine and one labeled for the inflatable vehicle restraint. However mine had no pin in C7 which was supposed to be the engine ground. Only in F8 which is supposed to be the ground for the supplemental inflatable restraint (SIR). So F8 is the only ground I have at the C100 connector. That’s why I said in the video that I wanted to do a step by step but it would have been useless since all these cars are wired slightly different. Did your car originally had a ground coming out of F8? If it did then it probably needs it.

@@BadLuckGarage that's why I was cerous. I have the f8 black and white to ground and I have another black and white to ground. I will look at it tomorrow with fresh eyes. Probably something simple I am missing.

I’m not sure exactly how you have everything but F8 should be an engine ground, not a chassis ground. And it does make a difference.

Okay didn't know that! I will switch f8 to engine ground and see how that goes I have them both running to chassis. I will let you know how I make out thankyou.

Got another question for you. I am in the same. Build right now as you at the same stage. For the cruise control I am deleting that. there is a vaccum line running in to the vehicle. From the ball when I put a vaccum pump on it it holds vaccum do I need to put that to manifold vaccum or cap that line. And for the HVAC wires there's a vaccum line coming out of there from diagrams I saw thoes lines connect. What do I do with the vaccum line coming out with the HVAC power?

The fat purple starter wire

Thank you. I have the same wiring diagram as you and I believe my Purple one has a larger connection same size as the battery connection so that threw me off. I will put a smaller connection on it.

If you went through your harness then it’ll most likely be too long and need to be cut anyway brother. So it’s a good time to crimp a new connector on. But it should have a fairly small connector to begin with unless the previous owner changed it.

Can u help me with one? My brother its in the middle of a ls swap, his 3rd gen is a rs 91

@@carlosmostro Sure what do you need.

@@MrRock861261 I got questions to

I’m gonna need some help soon... I’m ls swapping my 1991 z28

😂

Yea just gotta put your head down and do it brother.

Bad Luck Garage yup tomorrow morning I’ll be putting up a video

It will be cheap and it will look ugly but I’m new at this lmao
