New subscriber Following! Since I can’t afford a T56 and all the AR5 has went through the roof also guess my last hope to get a manual transmission in my 1988 Monte Carlo SS is a NV3500
It was a lot easier to use the stock style internal hydraulic slave cylinder/throw out bearing for a nv3500 with the original quick connect line that came on the s10 running to the clutch master cylinder
Get a longer bleeder line so you can run it in your engine bay and be easier to bleed the clutch just a suggestion that's how I have it in my ls swap bmw 535i
So is this for the setup on a NV3500 with internal space? Or is that an external slave one? Looks internal but I’m in the same boat right now trying to find parts to mate my Nv3500 to my 5.3 ls.
4.8 with nv3500 here why not use the 4.3 throw out bearing it works fine and is available everywhere I stay away from that aftermarket stuff when possible
@@petrolhead8851 it’s not that you can’t ask but if you do watch you would know a while back when the S10 truck became the focus both Venom and Gotham were done and not going to be builds after that.
could have saved money. All 1996 and up GM truck manuals went to that internal slave. You could have looked up a 1996-2000 nv3500 from a 1500 truck or s10 and it would be the right part.
Someone HELP me out here @ 3:05 clearly the diameter of the hole in the flywheel is substantially larger than the pilot bearing, isn't the Pilot bearing supposed to fit in the flywheel? I'm running into this exact issue right now, doing the clutch on my '07 Fit sport (usdm), ordered a LUK clutch kit & a lightweight flywheel. Compared them & the flywheel center hole is exactly as pictured on Bravus' set up here, the pilot bearing is way smaller.
Hey y’all I got a 99 Silverado swapped with a 6.0 vortec and a manual transmission from a v6 it won’t start from the key but I can start it through the screw driver on the starter any ideas neutral safety switch is new starter is new
Hey bro I had the exact same issue, I had to follow the pink remote switch from the starter to the fusebox, and I had to wire it to the starter relay if that makes sense. I'm pretty sure it happened when I had PCM issues and my clutch switch wouldn't activate
Ok so I been looking for answers and nothing. I posted this question a couple weeks ago with no answers. Maybe you got an answer please!!! Here's my post. Ok I need someone that has experience with nv3500s bolted to an LS. I went NV and did all the measurements and got it within specs. Here are my measurements Release bearing to front of trans 3.8" Engine to fly 3.35" distance From my understanding spec needs to fall in line with .125"-0.2" (mid .1625) unless someone has a different spec please let me know. That being said 3.8-3.35=.45" So I take that .45"-.1625= .2875 ( I did minus .1625 to keep it somewhere in the middle of spec allowed) I got a 10 pack of .05 spacers so I decided .1625/.05=5.75spacers I put in 6 spacers times .05=.3" So if my math is correct I take .45"-.3"=.15 and puts me in between the .125"-.2" range. For all you who followed the math so far and not racking there brain I put the trans on and when I did I feel like when pushing it on to the engine I can feel the tranny spring back like if the release bearing is to far forward. I ended up pushing it on and bolting it up. I pressure bled the system and the tranny won't go into any gear at all. I have been told two different things from friends, one person said to many spacers that tranny is should go in easily and not feel a push back at all and could be binding. Another person I spoke to said if the release bearing was to far forward than it would be engaged the entire time and go in to gear. Any advice welcome please!
@@deadbeatgarage Soon as I get a spare, brother.. 😁 I understand, man..my ride is a mustang, and I'm a po' boy.. It wants a T56 or a TKX, but if makes do with a whole stack of junkyard T5s. At least the T5 r&r's quickly when I grenade one.. The NV3500 in my work truck is usually an all day job, and the dang things are getting scarce, yanno?
@@antuanperez426 Far be it from me to praise a slushbox, but a 4L60E is rated at 360 foot pounds of torque, the NV3500 tops out at 300 foot pounds.. You can take the slushbox to a trans builder and have it modded for serious power...not so much the NV3500. It's an upgrade over walking, but not much. 😁
@@ryurc3033 I doubt you'd make three full passes..my 4.3 (mostly) stock '95 C1500 eats these damn things like potato chips. If it's gonna be abused swap in an NV4500 from a 3/4 or 1 ton..not a race trans by any means, but it'll fit most anywhere the 3500 will, and it'll survive.
