    Vibes after motor and trans swap.

    I will try that if it's not my issue. Another thought is the crank spacer. As far as I know I don't require the crank spacer (to center the torque converter snout) for my application but I need to confirm this as well. Thank you.

    Vibes after motor and trans swap.

    @DoubleDingo Thanks for the reply, I did bolt the flex plate up to spec with the right hardware. Now you guys are going to think I'm crazy but I've been researching and troubleshooting this for a year and a half now and pulled the trans twice! But I just ran across a small thread that...

    Vibes after motor and trans swap.

    Hello guys/gals, Ever since I did my LS swap on my 87' C10, I've had some rough vibe issues from idle up to about 3000 rpms (This is approximate as it's been awhile now). These vibes persist whether I'm in Park or driving under load. The reason I'm posting here is to get more exposure and the...

    First start complete, now what? Lol

    Absolutely! Especially a used motor that you've never heard run before.

    The lower bellhousing pan was rubbing the converter I guess. The pan was gouged right out on the sides. I'll have to see why it's tight there. Runs real nice and quiet though. No smoke, no ticks or knocks, tight. Threw on some Thrush bottles until I can get a real muffler put on. Just need to...

    Gotcha, that makes sense. There was some fluid in there. Guess it could be an idler bearing or anything at this point.

    Thanks. I checked the power steering fluid again and it was below the dip stick so maybe that's the sound. I'll put some mufflers on it and troubleshoot from there.

    Haha can't wait. I'm doing a nice quiet stealth exhaust, probably side dump too. Suits these trucks.

    Thanks a bunch. What a relief. Mufflers will help diagnose it but something sure doesn't sound 100% right now.

    Hahaha agreed! Do you hear that whining/dragging noise?

    First start complete, now what? Lol

    Hi guys first start on Old Brown finally. Hard to hear much of anything but there is a funny racket there. Almost sounds like a power steering pump at first but you'll notice the sound drags on shut down. Any ideas on what this sound may be? I'll be putting some temporary mufflers on her...

    2010 Camaro SS starter wiring

    Thanks a million man!! The only thing I can't make out is what connects to the OEM connector on top? Can't quite read it. Thanks again.

    2010 Camaro SS starter wiring

    This is the starter for my LS3 off of a 2010 Camaro SS. There's 2 ring terminals and one connector. Anyone know if I'll need to hook up the connector or do I just use the two ring terminals for my battery and signal wire? Thanks!

    Alternator wiring

    You got it. Worst part is I was ready to fire it up the day before I came back to work but kept blowing a fuse. Once I got to work, I found what my issue was within 2 minutes of chatting with PSI. So she's ready I hope! Cannot wait. Thanks again for the help, this is a great forum.

    LS3 stock tune but running headers safe?

    Thanks man! I guess I should've specified I will be getting it dyno tuned asap but if I can't book an appointment soon, I'd still want to drive her in the meantime.

    6/8" lowered and driveshaft length

    Hey guys, Will I have to worry about my 2 piece driveshaft length with my dropped 87' long box? Will the rear shaft need to be shortened? Thanks!

    LS3 stock tune but running headers safe?

    Hey guys, My LS3 computer has a stock tune for now. But my motor has a CAI and headers on it. I'll hopefully be firing this thing up on Friday. Am I safe to be cruising with a stock tune on a CAI and headers or will she run too lean? Thanks!

    Alternator wiring

    Thanks for all the help guys, ended up getting the whole charge system all wired up with brand new wiring and fuses. Still up at work but I'll hopefully be firing her up on Friday!

    Alternator wiring

    No go yet boys. I'll keep you updated! Unfortunately I'm back to work for two weeks. So if she doesn't start today, she'll be sitting until I return.

    Alternator wiring

    Alright great. Thanks again. Oh man. And another question. On my truck, the tan wire at the firewall will be for my oil pressure guage and the dark green wire will be for my coolant temp. Are these wires on the right side bundle of the firewall when looking from the front of the truck?
