Thanks for the information I'm working on a g body also. I have one question how many wires do you have going to the small terminal on the starter and how many on the big terminal from g body harness just looking for verification I have some wiring issues.
Hey man this vid helped alot. Doing a c1500 91 ls swap and trying to figure out what wire to hook up to the crank signal and 12v when the power is on but cant figure it out the diagram and got no power to the truck to check it lol any tips?
Thanks you..... really help love the videos! What did you do about the Camaro fbody headers on the driver side I don't know to cut it or let the muffler shop make a S style pip to work. I bought the same ones off eBay as in the older video.
SO TELL ME IF IM CLOSE OR MOSTLY RIGHT HERE; typicaly GM runs a very large 12v cable directly from battery to starter. Then a large ground from starter to frame or engine block. then a still large but smaller cable directly from +12V starter post to fuseblock under the dash, this is the feed for fuseblock and also a much smaller wire from the key igntion switch back out to the starter which triggers the bendix to kickin and starter to turnover? if this is correct can i reuse the large red wire from starter to fuseblock to refeed fuseblock, and i can reuse that trigger wire to the new LS fuseblock to trigger starter from ls fuseblock/harness?
F-body headers from eBay. At the time, there were very few alternatives. I wouldn't do it again. You may have to pay up, but just get the correct G-body swap headers.
Yo video cut off on me at the end I wanted to know does that last wire that thick red one that you were holding at the end is that for the power or ignition and I have to tap my alternator wire to the Cutlass old alternator wire and the same thing for the starter I tie the old starter wire from the Cutlass in with my LS swap harness starter wire
Doesn't relate to video but what did you use for drive shaft m? Length wise I've heard if you running a 4l60e you need to cut the stock one down about 3"
When you ran the pink wire did you only run it to the ignition wire on the harness and into the relay ? That’s how i did mines but it cranks but don’t want to start up not sure what is giving power to the fuse box
The harness I bought didn't have a Park Neutral Safety Switch or back up lights. I want to add them to my LS Conversion. Might you know which wires are needed to add to the Red or Blue Connectors so I can connect them to the park neutral switch on the transmission? Thank you in advance for your help.
@@JDP15 It's a white colored switch that is connected to the top of the steering column shaft down towards the bottom. You can adjust it by hand. It moves from side to side. It's kind of hard to explain.
Question...did you delete the backup lamp supply wire A9 Green out of the harness that goes to neutral/safety switch connector or did you connect it somewhere? I have the 4l80e also and I'm not sure what to do with this wire.
Was the pcm programmed to accept just one wire going to your safety switch, believe that white wire you're talking about is 34 on the blue connector, I'm still try to learn this wiring.
I might have been wrong about the PCM needing PN safety. You wouldn't really need it anyway. The wiring in the column will provide PN safety via starter interrupt.
Dunno if anyone cares but if you guys are stoned like me atm you can watch pretty much all of the new series on instaflixxer. I've been binge watching with my girlfriend these days :)
At the very end of the video, you can see that large pink wire. That's the one for the ignition. The video ran out before I could finish explaining. 8:00
I can't remember all the wiring you need to keep, but the ignition wire (the one attached to the distributor) and the purple starter wire for sure. You can get the engine running with just those two and a ground wire.
I used a Lokar kit which was basically a straight stainless rod and some hardware. You have to bend the rod to make it work. It's a PIA and would not do it again.
No it doesn't. There are solutions to make the OE speedo work, but I plan to go Dakota Digital at some point. The car hasn't been touched in months. Cooler weather is here, so I'll be back on it is shortly.
It's a Lokar dipstick. I don't particularly like it, but there is very little clearance between the engine and the firewall. The dipstick comes with an adapter to make filling the trans easier. It's not the ideal setup in my opinion.
Yes, it should be the same or very close. You shouldn't have to extend your starter wire due to the Chevy starters being on the passenger side of the car. See my other videos for the check engine light wiring.
Yeah, damn phone stopped recording on me. The wire that originally was connected to the distributor now becomes the ignition relay feed for the LS engine. It's that simple.
