Today on Classics Are Better, I am busy pulling the 5.3 LS Vortec motor and 4L60e transmission out of my donor 2003 Suburban and getting them into my '66 C10 "Bandit". If you missed parts 1 & 2, in a nutshell I pulled out the SBC that turned out to be a 305 with a t350 tranny that came with the truck (not original), and I have gone through and cleaned, painted, KBS coated, new motor mounts, and prepped my C10 for the new drive train.
Some of the jobs I knock out on this video are things like removing the front of the suburban, pulling the LS & 4L60e, removing the exhaust manifolds, pulling the spark plugs, deleting the A/C compressor and lines, replacing valve cover gaskets, painting valve covers, replacing valley cover gasket, replacing knock sensors, knock sensor harness & boots, replacing camshaft position sensor, oil pressure sensor, installing dirty dingo motor mounts and more!!
Thank you for watching and supporting, if your able, I really do appreciate it if you leave a comment, like, or subscribe. Always cool to hear from & learn from some of yall out there. As always, be safe, use your brain, and get out there and get wrenching if you can my friends.

Looking good ! I am very impressed with your knowledge and skills . Very smart to be proactive to prevent issues later when it is in the 66. I have removed the front fenders on my 79 C30 . Painting the frame . Now I am replacing the rocker panels . Adding a vintage air later . Good work ..

@CLASSICSAREBETTER 2 года назад

Thanks man! I appreciate that. Taking the front off was definitely the way to go when working alone, at least in my case. Good luck on the c30.

What radiator did you used, and did you use a another differencial or did you keep the original from the 66

@CLASSICSAREBETTER 13 дней назад

I used a Champions Radiator from Jegs. As I dug into it I found out my truck is a bit of a Frankenstein, my diff is from a 71 c10 w/ 3.73 gears. Thank you for watching!

Loved the video. I have a 2003 suburban aswell that I want to use as my donor for q 63. Im going to have to keep in touch with any questions. I would like my son start the build simce its going to be his truck.

@CLASSICSAREBETTER 9 месяцев назад

That is awesome to hear, and thank you for watching. I am always happy to help when I can, hit me up with any questions you run into and I will do my best to help or point you in the right direction. Hopefully my kids will wrench with me when they get bigger!

Do you have a guide on doing the harness from the 96 vortex to puting in 87 chevy im having a hard time trying to re wire it

@CLASSICSAREBETTER Год назад

Hi Edwin, I haven't worked on a '96 vortec myself, but a resource that I referred to a lot was www.lt1swap.com they have a quite a few diagrams etc. Also check out PSI's site, it has some great videos www.psiconversion.com/videos/ best of luck!

@EdwardGatica-wi5ng 7 месяцев назад

Do you use the old ECM for the engine and transmission

@CLASSICSAREBETTER 7 месяцев назад

Yep, I used the PCM from the suburban, only thing I had to modify was having the key security turned off as I used the key from the C10 and it has no chip.

@joehernandez6465 13 дней назад

Is there a simplified wiring harness????

@CLASSICSAREBETTER 13 дней назад

I used this harness from ebay, under a $100 and the guy's shop has like 14k reviews with a 98% rating (I have no relation to them). Worked great for me so far, just make sure you order the correct color plugs for your cpu (red, green, blue, etc). www.ebay.com/itm/265043306821?itmmeta=01HXJRSZR2VDFGY6C1BS6PYNRD&hash=item3db5cfe945:g:W6gAAOSwOPhgIDV5&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAABAKFqSfar0YijCIZKWelGdo3wtT1c1rerWe58S%2BLhUW6wZWoxAuncHJzzY7nKtNqXMX%2BC2kOZthQoNmJg8c%2FLHcQzSvfjKwA8QHL7oWqQg6aZgiErxZpFRIWB3s2oe8aDKH3Dwa%2F0pjOcmXPnds4nfmVGUqANSVQ2dHr78ac1GPluoyfR%2FZYzKJFZTfhlMh5s9Wp2n%2FZ9ZncYM93DPymDjyXu1phhkcUIIA6soiJ5cxbA6KM%2BA6bNmqfDoTSqmwh%2FdB3KdyskGtan69ftaKFQDFKSXOIOTiqIr9rqx98CKdplwAGioO8hxfqf8MAQJ6U24ILh6GdVNODIl7kYWgm6x9o%3D%7Ctkp%3ABFBMjvzn2Oxj

@chuckdaddy87irl 11 месяцев назад

How does the oil pan clearance look? I’m wondering if I need a low profile pan or if the factory will be ok.

@CLASSICSAREBETTER 11 месяцев назад

Just went a double checked it for you, the stock pan stick out almost an inch below my front cross member. Not really an issue for me in the C10, but if you were swapping into a car or a slammed truck then you'd want to get a low profile pan to tuck it up a bit. Good luck on your project!!

@chuckdaddy87irl 11 месяцев назад

@@CLASSICSAREBETTER thanks brother! My ‘63 has 2.5” drop spindles but no more in the front so I’m gonna sit it in there. I think it’ll work out!!

Can you drop the link for the dirty dingo mounts?

@CLASSICSAREBETTER Год назад

Sure thing, I grabbed them off Amazon for the free shipping amzn.to/3R8sOnM

@JosePerez-qt8gy Год назад

What headers will be using for it?

@CLASSICSAREBETTER Год назад

Hi Jose, I got some LS Swap mid length headers from SpeedEngineering.com they look GREAT! Almost got this thing ready to go, hopefully final video on it soon. Thanks for watching.

@ambrizj11 Год назад

Can you drop a link where you got the frame motor mount?

@CLASSICSAREBETTER Год назад

Yes sir, no problem. My motor mounts are sliding Dirty Dingo, but the frame mounts are Classic Performance 6372MP-SM mounts. Here is a link to where I got them on summit. (when I bought them they were $160 so you may want to shop around as they went up to $200, good luck) www.summitracing.com/parts/clp-6372mp-sm

@@CLASSICSAREBETTER thank you!.

@ambrizj11 Год назад

Are you using original harness and PCM?

@CLASSICSAREBETTER Год назад

Using the original PCM (blue/green) and I got an after market harness off ebay. I did have to order harness adapters for the fuel injectors though, turns out my motor is flexfuel, so I learned make sure to check which injector plug type your injectors take and order accordingly.

@ambrizj11 Год назад

@CLASSICSAREBETTER good to know i just pulled engine from donor and will be checking for that.

@beauepperson2641 Год назад

What kind of trans bar/mount did you use for the 4L60

@CLASSICSAREBETTER Год назад

I used the same one that the turbo350 was sitting on. I just drilled a new hole for the 4L60 mounting pad. Speedway Motors sells some good ones though if you need a new one.

@beauepperson2641 Год назад

@@CLASSICSAREBETTER thanks yea I have a turbo 400 I was going with but I had a 5.3 L with 4l60 dropped in my lap so I’m going a different direction. I already have the th400 mounting bar so I bet I can make it work. Also I seen the dirty dango mounts but where can you find just the perches if I buy those mounts? I tried cpp but they only sell as a kit. Speedway sells mounts and perches but they aren’t adjustable like the dango Thanks for the video you might become my best friend here in the near future lol

@CLASSICSAREBETTER Год назад

@@beauepperson2641 The perches I used in my 66 with the dirty dingo sliders were the Classic Performance 6372MP Engine Mounts, got mine from Summit, but Im sure you could shop around.

@@CLASSICSAREBETTER nice thanks. That’s what I was looking for. Also did you have to do a fuel cell? I’m hearing you have to do an efi fuel cell. You got any videos of your truck with it in and anything you had to change? I’m just trying to get a list of parts together and to do list.
