There is a lot of electrical work in this part of the #ETCGDadsTruck series. I demonstrate how to wire up new circuits as well as the installation of my Edelbrock Pro Flo 4 system.

All of this work had to come together in a short period of time. Just to put things in perspective, this video, and the ones that come after it were all shot in the 2 weeks before the Hot Rod Power Tour started. Trust me, it was a ton of work to complete in 2 weeks.

  1. Does the stock ECU calculate the torque using the Mass Airflow Sensor, Throttle position sensor, and vehicle speed sensor to tell the transmission how to act? Performance Transmission touched base on this briefly in one of his videos but not in detail enough for me to understand. You said all you was concerned with was the alternator and AC wiring as far as stock wiring harness under the hood goes. I have a 1999 Tahoe 5.7 4WD and intend on getting the Pro flow 4 (the black intake, ramjet style) I am in for a challenge here and could use any advice you might offer as far as wiring. Will I need a 411 computer if I am getting the Pro Flow 4? I have a 4L60E 4wd. I fear transmission failure if I do not interface the sensors to the transmission somehow, how do you bridge the gap? This was also my fathers truck, I am also in the Cincinnati area. Love your videos, Thank You Very Much!

  2. 33:45 For a sec there I thought those were scratches on your battery mount, I mean you just got it painted and I thought it already got ruined 😂😂😂

  3. I have a 94 two door Yukon. Is there a place I can buy new wiring connectors to replace the busted up ones I have in my door panels and interior? It is oddly difficult for me to find parts for the 94 Yukon 2 door.

  4. Thank you so much, I’m doing a very similar swap and your great work is helping me do a proper job.
    Again I’m grateful for your post.

  5. i like the real up lights too i put the same light in my 68 pu and i put the summit set up for my fans were it has the thermostat and relay switch then i put a serpentine belt set up with fan and electric fans . i got a motor home then pulled the engine witch was a 454 ho or stroke 454 with comes with a lot of motor homes can even be a LS 6 454 in some of them and they have a heavy duty 400 turbo dual electric fans oil cooler trans cooler and all the pluming i got 2 motor homes for free with damage one only had 6000 miles on it the other had 38,000 miles on it on the paper work on the one with 6000 miles said steel crank heavy rods 450 hp at 485 torque crate engine the other one is the same putting it in my camaro i get a lot of rv's just for the engines i got a ford with a 428 and a dodge with a 440 mag all have automatics but the same one's they put in the heavy trucks so they are all ready built trans just need to put the stage 3 shift kit in them and stall and they really work good tricks of the trade to get engines and parts for cheap like my 454 would cost 8000 to order a new one the trans is about 4500 but free is a very good price so far i have 2200 in my 68 all the drive train is dun frame up just needs painted and interior dun running a tunnel ram really came a live with that

  6. That cloth-like electrical tape is the same tape that #humblemechanic uses. It’s the kind of tape that is used in VWs / German cars quite frequently, so that may be who you got it from?

  7. Eric, I know it's pretty late, but the switch on the dash for the AC kind of bugs me. Why not use a trinary switch that turns the fans on automatically when the compressor pressures up?

  8. Lost my shit when he said candy 😂😂😂

  9. Ah the joys of wiring. Im going to have fun when I have my engine out of my truck. Going to redo all the aftermarket circuits I added into a nice contained harness to clean everything up.

    Its a good idea to avoid relays with cheap harness kits you find online. I opted for a empty universal fuse/relay box for my truck for my headlight relays I installed, my driving light relay, and for providing fuses for my aftermarket accessories. I got the empty box for $12 vs spending $20 for the box with relays that are most likely Chinese junk.

  10. Worked with a/c alot. Would it be easier to run from the high side cutout switch? No fuss with other switches. Just an idea. Awsome series!! Your dad is gonna freakin love what you did!! Did your brother do anything with the boat?

  11. Eric, I need to make a second comment about another one of my favor tools, the deburring tool. I saw you using the file on the hole you drilled in the sheet metal fan shroud and thought the is the perfect job for the deburring tool.

  12. Eric The Car Guy is like that awesome uncle you are excited to see that has the most awesome sense of humor and you're afraid to disappoint him.
    Go Eric! ✊
