A Cheap Way To LS Swap A Caprice! 

These cars are b-bodies not g-bodies. Great video, thank you

Super good work and informational. Shows its a way to build a budget ls and get reliability plus gas milage

I have a 82 el camino and im looking for an engine to get this resto going, lots of great advice, Thanks! Shout out from Fort Worth!

Super sweet car always loved those cars looks good w the corvette rally’s

Been toying with swapping a couple of my cars. This just made me want to pull the trigger. Didn’t think the wiring would be that easy!

Thank you again for doing this video. Do you ever put cam's in and have a recommendation on which one you like for daily driving.

Straight forward, simple and informative channel. No fake drama, dog tricks, politics, life stories, long intros and unnecessary editing. Right to the point. The only thing I disagree with Krusty is the choice of DBC over DBW. I think DBW is simpler, more flexible and is free. The DBW parts come with your junkyard pull-out. Nothing to buy or convert. Lastly, if you do a swap, ditch the Turbo 350. The 4L60E's OD and lock-up converter will give you a huge gain in MPG. Let the PCM do the shifting.

No leaks solid car

Nice build! 😮 glad I don’t have overheating issues in my sbc 350. 🥲 LS swaps are nice! 🫡

I can't really find how the B bodies differ from the Seville K bodies of 76-79. They look similar enough, but that could be deceiving. I do know that K's are basically stretched X's. (Nova's), so it's probably doable. I remember there was an LS Seville swap thread a few years back, but I can't find it. Anyway, that's kind of my dream swap.

Love the vids man and have you every swapped a 3rd gen Camaro?

What wires from the original body harness do I need to pin to the relay box??

Good stuff.

Will it do a burnout?

Thanks!

Good info

I got a 1979 Buick LeSabre curious on doing a LS swap Gen 3 How much was something like that cost???

I was see if you can hgive me any pointers been going with finishing my ls1 5.7 swap for a long time . I have 77 caprice with ls1 5.7 stand alone harness

Is that a line lock on the master cylinder

Nice.. what do you charge for a swap?

How difficult you think it would be to swap a ls in a 1965 buick riviera?

No engine coolant reservoir ?

What transmission you have

What length is drive shaft

It looks like it can be done in 1984 Buick regal 👍🏼 if you can put the links to every part in , I’ll be eternally grateful 👍🏼👍🏼😂

How can you hook 5.3 up to 700r4

Besides ground clearence . Can you still use the mounts you mentioned and a factory truck pan and still clear crossmember

If it had a 305 in it you're probably going to need to swap the rear end. That LS will make mincemeat out of the stock one. The 12 bolt they used in the wagons will bolt straight in.

Where/what straps you use to mount the radiator?? Where you get it from

What year?

Do you run your standalone wiring harness in the car or no

How far are you from cincinnati

What about the wires that go to the transmission from the engine harness? TH350 doesn’t have wires

6:26 my b body has a th400 will the trans cross member be the same? And can i reuse the driveshaft?

Just to be sure, you're stating those are oem factory truck exhaust manifolds that came on the Vortec truck LS based engine (i.e. 4.8, 5.3, 6.0 or 6.2) (Tahoe engine)? I ask, b/c oem exhaust manifolds on mine doesn't hug the engine like it does in this vehicle.

Hey man I have. 2004 Yukon xl 2500 and I keep getting a “reduced engine power” light and limp mode. It’s been a nightmare can you please help

How can I connect with you ? I’m interest in a Ls swap

When it comes to the neutral safety switch do you bypass it or use it. If you bypass it how would you go by doing it.

He’s gotta hook up his vacuum modulator on his tranny so it’ll shift like normal with out manually shifting. I used the dirty dingo adjustable plates and factory frame mounts for my 79 caprice. I got the Ls motor and turbo350 mounted in factory location and used the original drive shaft didn’t have to drill new holes for the cross member and I used a 87 grand national fuel sending unit with a walbro 255 intank fuel pump in the factory tank. Or you can use the 96 ss tanks and pumps. I swapped the fitting from the 305 PS pump to the Ls PS pump and used the factory 79 caprice PS pressure hose factory 79 caprice radiator with truck accessories Tahoe radiator hose 305 lower hose eBay computer Amazon harness. And I used a 69 skylark gas pedal that mounts the th350 kick down cable on the gas pedal.

Will these mockups be the same for a 78 Cadillac Deville Two door🤔

So I do not need any of the brackets for accessories… like to move the alternator or AC brackets

❤😅 like LS

Where you getting the tunes?

Did you delete the ac

49 Seconds in an I'm done...lmao! 😅😅

Caprice is B body

Those are gen 2 trucks lol
