I'm 62, and have owned my LC gtr since May 1978 ( bought it 10 weeks before my 16th birthday ). I went through the go faster stage, eventually running a pro-stroke 235 with a garrett strata turbo with a 48mm Dellorto / supra 5 speed 3.36lsd combo. eventually got sick of the constant tuning / maintenance regimen and pulled it all out for an RB30et / tremmec TKO and 3.25lsd 9". the car is super reliable, i hardly ever touch it mechanicaly now and it is super smooth in traffic or goes like a rocket riding coyote when i want it to. good to see i am not the only "mature man child" to still be messing with toys.
Growing up in the late 90s if you had a car that ran a 10 sec pass, you'd be the talk of the area. It's awesome to see a little na 202 run a time like this. Refreshing as it reminds you of the good old days before BARRAS AND LSAs etc hit the scene..
I had an lc with a 265 hemi six pack 4 inch bore and 120thou offset grind crank with a 15 inch engine set back,on the streets of brisbane in the mid 90s it was unbeaten,was Probally a mid 11sec car. fuck it was mental.Never raced Andy fox or the top hitters but it surprised everyone.
Done very well boys. Great interview with a real Aussie in a real Aussie car. I’m impressed on how much appreciation is acknowledged in these comments on a vehicle without a Barra or ls turbo. These is saviour to humanity 🙌
love this fella,hes a true blue fair dinkum Aussie,these are the men that invaded my dads garage every weekend and worked on cars,that voice brings me back ,OUTSTANDING
Great story! It's so good to see what is a nice, basic, quick, car. No million dollar blowers, ten turbos, haltec, motec, full custom chassis, blah, blah, blah and enough money spent to finance your house. Really refreshing and enjoyable.
It was a pleasure to meet Trev at the All Holden Day at Toowoomba yesterday. What a great guy, same in person as he comes across on the video. I've shared this video to my Blacktop Photography Oz page on FB.
That was awesome!!! I'm a Ford Girl, however, I've always loved the LC and LJ Torana's, especially the XU1. Your 6 cylinder "pocket rocket " is a work of passion and determination for THE most expensive "6 pack" I have ever heard of, maybe even the world.
Not a Holden guy but MAN you have to hand it to him, That Torana is something special! Many blokes did 265 swaps back in the day but to make that 202 work hard with triple Webers is awesome, Sounds good too!
@@ayycee5303 agreed.. used to be a "Holdens rule and everything else is a piece of shit" kind of bloke in my late teens and very early 20s but being nearly 30 I've learnt to appreciate a great and well built car regardless of the make
Kudos needs to be given regardless of your affiliation. I'm a a motorhead and I love all cars whether its a v8 ,rotary or straight 6 . It's about recogniizing those that push the the limits and getting the umbers out of all engines. Man I have to say though isnt that is a great little torry from the 70's . 10 sec's ,Congrats.
Listening to the engine under full load along drag strip sounds smooth no excessive screamin' just torque on torque on torque from a wee lil' 202ci , Great build from a guru who knows his stuff💪
I know he doesn't like to think about dyno figures too much but I like to use them as a comparitive tool. If you doubled this cubic inch you would be in the 900hp range with a 400ci which is about right for a 1.5ftlbs per cubic inch engine. This is right in the range of cup car performance. I also watched a video about a track E49 that was making 450hp and that was worked like hell for this Holden to be making the same power with 63 less cubes is a fair effort.
That's a really nice example of the '71. And a really passionate, likeable bloke too. I'd love to see what it looked like when he bought it! $1500 and 5 years work. Well worth it! Great video, cheers
I love this car an absolute dream car. My uncle had one when I was a kid and when he past away I always said I wanted one. Unfortunately as life goes prices are now through the roof but maybe one day the dream will live on. Great video guys this one touches home.
Take note fullboost. See all the comments regarding a champion Aussie bloke on the thread without a boosted ls or Barra? Your channel has changed direction to a popularity flop competition. Put real blokes with real car achievements on ya channel & get real again.
@@saboostaddictaddboost1972 at first i thought you were the first fuckhead commentator. But then i re read your comment and you are a legend. But dont know if i can agree 100% bud, it takes all types of people to make this a great channel. Me and you agree but we are both probably old school and unfortunately the new school boys just can’t relate to what you are saying here. Old generation fans vs new generation. Unfortunately the new school weren’t around as long as me and you to truly appreciate what this legend bloke is capable of😉
True blue , onya mate!!! congrats on the dial in and craftsman ship , build me a engine and it will come , i need a shell , preferably Lc sedan or coupe .
That’s an absolutely lovely car and the dudes totally stocked on it. I’m such a fan of the sound & basic Machanic’s of Webber’s. Had a set on my Datsun 1600 & the sound is unforgettable.
A mate of mine had an eh s4 that was running 10's in the 80's would rev to 10000 had tripple valve springs 3 mechanical methanol injection. 44 84 cam .Needed to be towed to start it ,4 sp opel stick shift . Modified oil pump and lube system . The blocks start to let go around 350hp , bottom of the water jacket . Mine did about 120 passes before cracking the block.

Feel like this bloke should be full time at street machine I love listening to him. Talking to people like him makes me love Australia.
He is great fun!
He's a rippa
Agreed
I agree
Yep best reply on this video,well said Mia
Give this guy the Aussie of the year award 100% hands down we need a guy like this representing our country ✊🇦🇺👍
Hell yes
Would vote him in
The pure joy in his voice, outstanding!

That’s what it’s about right there - you can hear in his voice the enthusiasm for building cars after 30 years.
The energy that this bloke is as addictive as his Torana!
300rwhp from an atmo 3.3l pushrod non crossflow 6 through an auto is bloody impressive
Thought he said 400
@@bensonhedges479 - 400 estimated at the crank.
186 be better
@@Mac-zl4po no. 186 might have a steel crank, but lacks the torque of the 202
Love it. In a time where everything is turbo and 1000hp street cars are common, it's still impressive to see an NA inline 6 running 10s.
Especially an old school 202 :)
This video had me smiling from the moment Trev started talking. Great story brought to life via an exceptional video. Top work.
This bloke is a hero, loved the attitude and hope he bloody enjoyed his well earned sixpack!
I feel like everyone forgets just how fast a 10 second car is.
Very true!
@@danielbrealey2924 I've struggled to get low 12s with the same power in other cars. Not just power, power to weight etc.
I dunno. I reckon it would be about 10seconds.
@@FuManchu5ltr that was a good one. Spit my drink out.
Watched a review on a v12 SVT Lamborghini the other day, and for over $700k you too can run a 10.8! We’ll done on the build fella!
Love it. Makes all the right noises and would give bigger engines a good fright.
Cinematography and edits are next level in this video btw.
I just love the excitement in his voice as he explains everything. He is like a kid getting his first pushbike on Christmas morning.
What a cool character, hope your buddies upgraded that six pack to at least a carton Trev. You certainly deserve it mate, what a great build!
Came here to say this is probably the nicest video production I've seen from SM so far. Well done!
Couldn't agree more, it's bloody awesome.
Agreed 100%
10.7 from an NA 202 is absolutely insane, I didn't think that would even be possible with a bigger crank. This guy can build a motor thats for sure.
This bloke is an absolute legend. Just a deadset genuine Aussie bloke. Who can certainly build a bloody motor. What a weapon
Done very well boys. Great interview with a real Aussie in a real Aussie car. I’m impressed on how much appreciation is acknowledged in these comments on a vehicle without a Barra or ls turbo. These is saviour to humanity 🙌
Epic epic epic. Someones lucky having a dad like that.love it

He's an amazing storyteller. Could listen to him all day. Great car with a great story to boot
The times are all that matters....Amazing point and boot!!!
Handling has to rule king for good times...!
: )
I used to pit crew for bloke who run regular 11.0s in a little red FC with triple 48's we never got into the 10's but we had a lot of fun tryin.
What an awesome story. Very inspirational for those of us who are bringing the old classics back to life and back to the street.
Thankyou sir.

A true car enthusiast and a true Aussie guy, great lil torie, a simple lil set-up but brilliant
This bloke is an absolute natural presenter what a great personality and presence in front of the camera.
This bloke should have his own channel. So much more entertaining than channels with 100k + subs.

Awesome video + genuine bloke + great car = big smile on my face. Made my day.
what a top guy...and you can just see how much he loves what he does. but $1500 for a Torry...that was one awesome deal he got there. 🙂🙂
Wow, I'm over 60 so, this brought back so many memories, thanks
Thisbhas been the best build story from street machine in a long time. I hope i have half this guys energy at his age. Well done
I'm in love,a Torry with a 6 running 10s ,crazy 202 is a real credit to the builder, love the channel and keep it up mate 👌
from Start to Finish......I cant get this smile off my face.Your a bloody legend mate,TRUE BLUE OZZY
The guys a legend. Good to hear someone get excited about their car
Seeing him so keen to pumping down the quarter was awesome that feelings got to be the best in the world

Thanks sharing, a great yarn. Cheers
That’s an absolutely lovely car and the dudes totally stocked on it. I’m such a fan of the sound & basic Machanic’s of Webber’s. Had a set on my Datsun 1600 & the sound is unforgettable.
Mate WELL DONE!! You are a engine master! Absolute beaut looking car too. Keep up the great work!!
Love the 202 motor!
So much fun to work on.
That’s the best video I’ve seen in a long time. In any category. Put big smile on my face 🤙🏼
The sound gets me every time.
Well done. Smart builder. That is an awesome build. Sounds fantastic. 🙌
Made me a bit depressed watching this. The biggest stuff up of my life was selling my LC GTR. And this beauty just hammers that home. What a beast.
I’m feeling ya buddy. Did the same thing as you 20 years ago and still regret it.
Awesome video guys, keep producing these!
That’s a little weapon, love it, killer job on the build.
That's one quick ok LC what treat to see a ol' red motor nailing it down the track, awesome owner to by the sounds of it !
The best car story I ever heard in my life👍
What a bloody rippa , go the 202 haha great little combo 😀😀
This fella needs to be on street machine more often mate well done
Cool tidy little beast,the GTR Torana stock was still a good little car,cheap as chips yrs ago,now strewth over the top.
Gotta love a set up where the factory engine is being used,just goes to show that some like a challenge....Nice work..
Loved this story . It’s what dreams are for.
What a great build.
This is bloody awesome makes me so so happy to see. I would love to hot up my 202 like that
amazing perfomance from a holden 6 , well done mate!
Awesome love that it's a red six!! Great clean little Torana!
Just want to hang out and have a frothy with this bloke. What a character! Rad little car
Wow that is one hell of a kick ass 6 pack.
Far out the old Holden 6 sounds mental when they’re worked
I agree. So do most things once you rev above 5500
This proves you don’t need massive mods just experience and a positive attitude!
I think you're underselling the amount of work done to the engine
i remember a yellow lc or lj torrie at Calder park drags in the 80's it was pulling low 11's. it had a 265 hemi in it pretty quick for the day.
Congratulations mate beautiful build and love the engine work
Good on him. Winning the bet and having a very fun street car ta boot.
Awesome torana awesome video thanks street machine. What a beautiful red
Great Fella. Clearly LOVES His Cars and a real straight(six..)shooter(Lol)!
Absolute bloody Aussie legend, don’t make em like that anymore. Car/gentleman
What miserable wankers are downvoting this?! 🤦🏻♂️ Epic car, legend owner/builder with personality in spades. 🙌
Unfortunately some people are just haters
Yeah ford 2k barra wankers i bet
Agreed Barney. Planko got stiffy pants
@Puffwagon no one needed the numbers 😂
@Puffwagon nah not really, I'd take an intech before a barra any day of the week
Love it, epic results, entertaining owner - class
Wicked great work as a drag strip head ,a little rail came out at Adelaide n it did high sixes man it's amazing
Really good. I’m impressed.
