    Astro van steering shafts

    No, it's OK. Its been hard finding the shafts around here. If you have some for the community, go ahead. Once I get some more I'm sure there will still be interest.

    Astro van steering shafts

    Jon, I don't have anymore right now. I want to get some more and get them available. Getting harder to find Astro & Safari vans around here. I'm going to visit a couple local wreckers so if I do get some I will surely post an update. Thanks

    Project Regress: the LS Orphan Files

    The reason I asked about the truck accessories vs the Fbody ones is if you use a 2010 Camaro water pump (vs LS1) you can keep the truck accessories. The pump is more $$, but the bracketry is easier to get. I did this on my 5.3L swap for throttle body clearence. Then use a 3rd gen Camaro upper...

    Project Regress: the LS Orphan Files

    CooperNick, are you using truck accessories (balancer) on your 5.3 or Camaro/Vette accessories? The truck spacing is different.

    LS 5.3 LM7

    My bad a 2002 Silverado not 2022. I'm using a DBC throttle body, but pretty sure a 411 PCM does DBW as well in 2002. Here it is, take a look, it's an HP Tuners file .hpt, I had to rename it so it would upload.

    LS 5.3 LM7

    nycutlass- Are you just looking for a bin file for a 5.3L LM7 with a 4l80 swap already done to it? I have the initial one I used for my build. It's a base 2022 5.3L Silverado (original 4l60) with the 4l80 segment swap, 12212156 OS. If you want I can post it for you?

    Grand National No Start problem

    As built6spdMCSS mentioned I would look at the Crank sensor. Had the same type of issue on an EFI conversion I did, no spark, no injector pulse (checked with a noid light). With no crank signal the ECM doesn't know the engine is rotating. Hard to test one unless you have an oscilloscope.

    Gear selector label/decal

    I have a label maker, might have to look into that as well. I don't want to see the label tape i.e. 1 long decal. It's not lighted. Would prefer to have individual letters (but with sticky back for the install). Was also thinking of getting a vinyl graphics place to print one up.

    Gear selector label/decal

    Did an LS/4l80 swap along with a console from a 2003 Malibu, shifter from a Camaro, original MCSS shift T handle knob. Everything works well, but I don't have a gear selector decal (P R N D D 1 2). Was wondering if anyone knows of a company making them, or any one here would be able to print...

    Astro van steering shafts

    Right now I don't have any. Too snowy & cold to get to the yard for cores. Will be working on some more hopefully early spring.

    LS Intake to hood clearance

    Yes, there is a port that accepts some sort of swivel connector (GM). I just drilled it out & tapped it for a 3/8NPT barbed fitting. It's plastic

    LS Intake to hood clearance

    TBSS intake fits nice on my 85MCSS. Filled, sanded & painted to get rid of the ugliness

    86 MCSS stock a/c with ls swap ?

    I have the stock AC in my LS swapped MCSS. Issue comes around the motor mounts and where it puts the motor. I did have to trim the bracket for the coil packs just slightly so it didn't hit the AC box. I used a relocate bracket for the R4 AC compressor (moved it up from the frame rails). The LS...

    Trick Chassis 8.8 swap geometry issues?

    Yes I agree something must have moved, but everything seems fine now. Everything tight. Will see in the spring. I just thought I'd post that up just for thoughts. Didn't want to mess up UC645 post.

    Trick Chassis 8.8 swap geometry issues?

    It's funny you posted this, I was going to post a situation I have/had as well with my 8.8 swap, Again I don't believe its the product, but haven't really found a solution. Put everything together, measured and adjusted for my pinion angle 2* on the street. Everything was fine when I first drove...

    Any tips on how to remove wiper blades

    Straighten the blade and get a small flat screwdriver and press on the spring thru the square hole. Should pop off.

    Water Pump top inlet versus Throttle body clearance

    Coppernick, I did a 5.3L (2004) from a truck, nothing real special on that side of things. It has a turbo (76mm), I did a C6 ZO6 cam, and TBSS intake (I got from a buddy). I filled the 'egg crate' design on top of the intake with structural body adhesive, sanded & painted it smooth for a nicer...

    Water Pump top inlet versus Throttle body clearance

    Had the same issue with my swap. I know it's the more expensive route, but I used a 2010 Camaro water pump, same spacing as truck accessories. It also brings the water inlet/outlet to the drivers side, the rad hose looks a little better as well. Here's a pic

    LS swap question ?

    When I started my LS swap there wasn't as many motor mounts being made at the time. I ended up contacting JohnB and he was making his own for the swap. I bought a set off of him, used a CTSV pan, worked perfect. No notching, AC box worked well, just cut off one of the ears of the coil bracket...
