First lemme say your videos are very informative to the people who haven't done much in the past or are getting started in building. That being said ya come across as condescending Alot of the time, which is purely non intentional, I'm only mentioning this because your videos are very helpful to Alot of folks, I imagine that you do them to help others avoid costly mistakes which is great but sometimes it seems like ya really don't wanna be doing it, this is just my observation. You do a far better job than I ever could .... I know I'm an asshole which makes it impossible for me to do anything like your doing so thanks again and again these are only my observations God bless you and your's
Great info bro, it's a damn shame, that I've seen an been hired to re, square , plum an fix this exact thing people do without proper prior knowledge of basic math, mechanics, an welding skills
Hes right those mounts dont last very long theres a guy here in youtube he just posted a video about this motor mounts he upgraded them to a diffrent style polyurethane for 75 I'm getting thise and getting Rudd of the 4.3 mounts they brand new but since I'm doing a 5.3 swap I need to thanks for the advice👍👍👍
For anyone about to notch their frame on their s10, if your using 302-1 oil pan. You need to notch more than 9 inches go a little over 10.5 inches. Because it's possible to lose distance after welding.
Is this a 2.8 or a 4.3? Those mounts look worse than my from the factory 91 did when i replaced them in 2016. Did you end up going polyurethane to replace them?
so youre telling me if i put a 5.3 from a truck i can use the stock oil pan and i shouldn't have to notch the cross member and it wont hit? if that is the case im happy to hear cuse alot of these youtubers dont seem to know what they are talking about in the other videos that ive seen
New to the swap out v8 I am putting a older 1963 SBC in a 94s10. And hope I don't have to cut the frame rail it's been a bitch so far 😂don't what brackets are going to line up with the power steering pump it's a older block with no holes for all the alternator or pumps any suggestions would be appreciated
The top part is a speedway motors column. The lower is from a 90's jeep Cherokee or Comanche truck . i beleive it is 3/4 30 spline at box and 1" DD at column.
Depends on the application. He explains why he needed to. Thats the nature of swapping and fabricating stuff. Sometimes you have to modify things cause they don't make everything bolt in.
@@TOMVUTHEPIMP i guess that depends on specific application but id rather cut a crossmember than a firewall. And how often even in "the old days" did something like that thag was done right fail? If you put quality metal back you can cut ane notch anything, or heck even build a new crossmember. Its his truck and he explained his choices so whats the problem? And his point was more that the engine isn't center than it was to cut the crossmember.
