This is the definitive guide on how to wire your LS Swap sponsored by ‪@SummitRacing‬ I go over every single connection and every single wire. Heck, I even show you how to wire in a different MAP sensor so it will work with an older harness. There is nothing that I do not cover in the this guide hence the long length. I hope you enjoy this video and by the end you will know exactly how to wire a LS Swap into your old hot rod. Thank you so much for watching!

An hour long?! Let’s go!!!

@kailuagarage Год назад

A nice option is a four or five terminal bus bar that you could mount to the firewall, and then connect all those power wires there and a single wire down to the starter, rather than so many terminals connected to the starter lug.

@2carpros Год назад

Very true! Thanks for watching!

@DE-ok4ld Год назад

Very good point!

Best explanation of ls wiring I've seen, hands down. Much appreciated

Wow, thanks!

Guys this is by far the best video series on RU-vid, especially for a newbie like myself. I’ve watched every swap video there is. I finally feel like I understand enough to get started. Can’t wait to make my 88 Camaro fly!! It’s a stock 2.8L V6 👎

@2carpros 4 месяца назад

Happy to help! That's going to be a sweet build!

@ratsrodsgarage461 7 месяцев назад

Awesome video. I got one huge tip. Flat ground straps love to corrode and make huge headaches. Easy quick fix is to put shrink wrap over them to block the environment that loves to corrode them. I seen that problem way to many times to count. Some chevys have a factory strap that is on the driver side rear of block and connects to bottom firewall area. 9x out of 10 when they have a electric problem you go under and look you will see it is nice and green and crumbling apart. That is do to not being covered.

@MaliqThalier 7 месяцев назад

Great video thanks, so many ls swap how-tos will say “now wire up your swap”. This made it a lot less intimidating especially thinking of it as two separate vehicles.

@2carpros 7 месяцев назад

Right! That's why I wanted to show the fine details. I'm so glad it helped! Thanks for watching!

@mitchellschlaikier6274 11 месяцев назад

I just bridged ignition in the on position and cranking 12v together from back of the keyed ignition for ecu power up. Saves having a switch that you have to find every time.

@dennisoechsle2410 Месяц назад

Yep, 55 has a post on the ign switch for cranking position for thos that do mot know. Its also how to wire a msd as well. Luke you said just junction the purple and green wires from.switch and its good to go.

@HartsuffMotors 10 месяцев назад

That issue with wiring up the ECU power is the biggest reason we see for no starts on LS swaps. I threw up a video about how to solve this issue if anyone wants to see the fix.

@2carpros 10 месяцев назад

It really is. Thanks for watching!

@scottc0510 11 месяцев назад

EXCELLENT, well-detailed video, but I have a little constructive criticism: All those colored plastic crimp connectors are unsightly. A much better option asthetically is to use "naked" butt connectors and ring terminals with heat shrink tubing. I know it's more labor intensive, but makes your engine and engine compartment look MUCH better (more professional)... With so much effort to do your wiring "right," a little extra work to use naked connectors with heatshrink would be WELL worth it.. :-)

@2carpros 11 месяцев назад

Great tip! I use connectors with heat shrink built right in now. They look very nice. Thanks so much for watching Scott!

@hectormontano6957 4 месяца назад

Great video ,I feel more comfortable attempting my 1st ls swap , my question is do I still need to use or have original fuse box.

@2carpros 4 месяца назад

Nice! You can use that or you can fuse the circuits individually like I did. There isn't that many so it's not so bad. Thanks for watching!

@CJ2Fye7 Год назад

Other is a 58 tooth reluctor wheel. 24 or 58

@ryanmacewen511 11 месяцев назад

For ECM hot when cranking, hot when starting.. Can't you just use ignition power from ign switch/ Maybe add a relay if you are concerned about power draw?

@2carpros 11 месяцев назад

If your ign switch works that way. This one doesn't work that way. It turns all power off to the car except the starter. Then when released it cuts power to the starter and powers the rest of the car. Thanks for watching Ryan!

@stevepope5484 Месяц назад

Id have to invent a splice/termination else where with one red wire to the starter

@traciespivey1687 5 месяцев назад

@darryl3767 11 месяцев назад

I have a ls swap 5.3. I’m ecu isn’t getting constant 12v power. It ranges from 10/9/11. Any ideas of why it would lose power? Can’t find any bad grounds or bad wires. Pulling my hair out.

@2carpros 11 месяцев назад

Hmmmm that's super strange. I would try a different battery. Seems like a cell inside the battery is not happy. Thanks for watching!

@2carpros 8 месяцев назад

I don't want to say yes and there be some small connector that is different and waste your time. My guess is yes but I have never done it and not a 100 percent that you could. Thanks for watching!

I am STRUGGLING with wiring up my 82 GMC. It used to be a diesel now it has a 6.0 LS. I have no hot power wire when the key is in “Accessory” position

Just some feedback on that ground from the engine mount to the frame, that's not a very good ground--most of those connections from that mount to the frame have paint, but otherwise good job! Good explanations!
