- On this Episode of The Skid Factory, Al prepares the Big Block Crown for a return to the Dyno.
The radiator is replaced, the lower supercharger pulley is changed from 250mm to 215mm to lower the maximum boost pressure and the fuel system is upgraded with Raceworks 1500cc injectors and a second fuel pump.
We then head down to see Kye at Knight Family Motorsport to update the tune for the new boost pressure and fuel system.

Since you can't make a smaller top pulley could you make a bigger bottom pulley🤔
700HP on an Aussie dyno is about 550HP on an American dyno.
@@jimihendrix5576I think you’re mistaken, definitely the other way around.
having that Summernats idle on a button had me in stitches, and does sound mint too
It's so ridiculous, I'm dying over here.
Sounds better when the throttle gets cracked 👍
"I'm that guy, that fills my tank, ..." , classic. Every time doing a in tank fuel pump, at the workshop...lol! Legend Al!
Never seen the big man so happy
Al deserves it. He worked his ares off.
I can not believe an oil company has not got onboard with a sponsorship with The Skidfactory.
I’m sure lemon squash is paying big money for all those mentions they get
I think some have tried but Al likes what he lieks
Doubt a big oil company cares.
Harrop support goes good tho
What the fuchs
Love the big block and Kye's a real pro, but I miss seeing The Hoff behind the laptop.
From what I’ve seen on Hoff’s channel it seems the wait list for using the dyno is months long. I don’t think Al will wait for that long.
Plus only 30-40 minutes away compared to 2-3 hours away for the Hoff depending on traffic
Whomp mode. Love it 🤣
Haha Al's little laugh while choosing a sticker for the whomp button. He's a happy man.
The interior of this car looks amazing
A true man of class uses black fittings instead of goofy ass anodised red and blue. Love ya work Al
2:32 ''i'm that guy...'' 😂Al, that's why I keep coming back, you keep it real, no matter what the topic. 👍👍
I never get tired of the sound of that engine on the dyno!!! Beautiful car!
What an amazing car. The Whomp button was genious!
This whole car start to finish. Such a great achievement.
Famous last words
Long time coming, but rome wasn’t built in a day..
what a beast! You guys are all legends, Kye also really knows his stuff!
For sneak effect, should have just used that “M” sticker upside-down. Whomp engage!
It's gonna take something pretty special to beat this beast. Looks, style, sound, power. This beautiful beast has it all.. you'll never get the smile of Al's face. Can't wait to see it at the track, that's gonna be hair raising.. thanks for the video boy's.
A smiling AL makes me smile 👌👌👌👌👌😁
Also that is one thirsty big block. Damn that's a lot of fuel system
Have fun. Also love that Woody is so well brought up.
love to see oldest gromet grab a lemon squash or two and the crown for a lap down town with the boys while dads outa town... it's what i would do!!!! don't think the old man has forgiven me yet... :) Can see the love and pride you have in the car Al great work!! Not the bigest hp on the channel (yet) but the sweetest ride!!
Stick a picture of "The Womp" from Double the Fist on the button.
Bloody awesome build, start to finish has been one of my favorites ever, keen to see you put some numbers down Al!
See you at summernats 👍🍺👍
Chuffed for you Al, looks like it's all falling into place, nice for you to be getting a fun toy for a change!
Thanks Al, Kye and Michael for taking the time to talk to me at length at Willowbank on the weekend. Was great to see the car in real life. You guys have done a killer job on it.
See you guys there. Looking forward to meeting you both.
This thing is a beast on screen and was even better seeing it in real life on saturday. Was also great to meet you two legends on saturday Alan and Woody. Keep up the great work.
Great video as always guys, what an awesome car.
The level of control with the Haltech is amazing. What a brilliant piece of Australian engineering.
I love this build this car is so awesome. And it sounds like Al has the perfect plan for that beast. Doesn't really matter if you have the fastest car. If you can drive around and womp on it. That's were the most fun is to be found. 🤘
Sheesh that amount of power in that size car! 👏👏👏
Turn the 3 clockwise 45°.
Stunning car Al, you deserve it 👊🏻
Unleash The Beast!. Thanks Guys for being Awesome! 🤟🏼
Damn y'all, I can only wish that I had the means, resources, and knowledge to build a dream like this someday. I have a 709 whp 1997 EJ8 Civic coupe with a fully built LSVTEC (a B series non-VTEC block with a DOHC VTEC head), and I built it all (edit: sorry, other than the machine shop work and the bottom end, Iwas referring to the car, suspension, head, etc). I don't have the time to get it properly tuned on the dyno (but it made 709 whp on a DynoJet on its current tune), and I've never been able to get a clean pass out of it because the closest drag strip is only open in the summer, I work six days a week, and I don't have any way to get it to the track other than to drive it. It's been impossible for me to get any time to do anything with it, so I'm always screwed out of my love. I have $20,000 into a $1,000 car, so no matter what I do I'm screwed.
20k into a 1k car makes it worth atleast 21k. Back before Covid it would’ve been worth 10k max
It was good meet you at Willowbank last weekend awesome build and very tidy 👌
Arh yes the “wherever place” aka the shit draw, box or container 👌
Every shop has one
Love the old school style wheels. Good looking build! Wish I could find similar wheels for a Alfa GTV6.
Have a great time mate!
Looking forward to catching this at summernats! Lots to take in on this car!
700 rwhp has always been my all time dream goal (dream because it'll never happen unless I find a bag of money somewhere)
When I was a young teen I seen an orange Torana in street machine magazine which had 700rwhp which was astronomical power in a street legal car at the time. The basic point of the line was something like "even at 110km/h all you have to do his give it a gut full and the rears just light up"
I always wanted to overtake at 110km/h whilst doing a massive power skid (on private property obviously.... )
One of the best sounding blower motors since mad Max's beast that is fully drivable for a layman
Can’t wait to see you guys and the 👑 @Summernats 35
Where’s the Hoff? Kye is a legend, lots of knowledge
Was about to say the same
The Hoff is flat out and lives 2 hours from us. Kye is local.
Good stuff lads, so happy summer is finally here. Hopefully catch you down the 'berra. ✌🇦🇺
Super clean build Al, nice work mate.
what a weapon bro
Less boost, more fuel, more power?
BIGGER AIR. Everyone say hi to the Gale Banks school of thought.
Bring alot of merch, NATS BABY
Great video as always guys, see you’s at summernats 🤙🏽🎉
Appreciate the work you both do and it’s awesome to see how this build turned out. Really enjoy your attention to detail, knowledge and humor.
Thanks for sharing your skills!
You should check out Rocky Mountain race week for your next drag week in America.
Cheers from Denver Colorado!
careful Al, drag racing can be addictive haha. can't wait to see you take it down the quarter
I have taken it down the 1/8 and can indeed confirm that it is addictive.
Whomp mode = "UNLEASH THE BEAST" 😂
Thank you for sharing with the world al and woody
I hope that ground wire to your pumps is beefy the amperage draw from both those pumps must be massive.
Beautiful car looks like a show car!
Looking forward to the video from the track. Keep the shiny side up.
Make sure to capture some footage of Brooke! She’s up there with the car😍
Love a whomp switch.
Summernats ready
You've come along way since the boxer motors
Woohoo! Can't wait to see it here in Canberra.
Great video, Informative and detailed as usual, Thank you guys!
nice upload lads
Cheers
Jim
Love this build, if you break and need to fix my shop is 15mins from Willowbank Raceway :P
that's a great sounding engine.
Love it, I can see a skid mark's logo coming, merry christmas gent's
Love the car mate. Well made 💪🔥
Nicely done boys
Looking forward tosee the big crown at the nats!
Plenty of power for a light car, v.nice you deserve it.
Less boost?? Mind blown on a Sunday morning. 🤯
Got to love a lazy 700
you're going to have to chop the exhaust off for summernats
Will remove the rear section.
Could you fit those electric exhaust cut-outs so beloved by Americans?
Just wondering where I can pick up one those custom boot lid struts mate. Car is awesome, well done guys.
Sounds killer without ya Bridgeport switch , but how goods the switch
To hear an Australian bloke say "ground" instead of "earth" when referring to a negative battery connection made me a proud American. 🍻
Very different and very cool!
You guys will have to come for a fat lap in my poorly tuned methanol land barge 🤣
Womp mode engaged !!!
Methanol at Summernats! "I f*cking love methanol!"
Probably a dumb question but why go up in such small steps with injectors? What would have been the disadvantages of slapping 2000ccs or something straight in?
I don't claim to be an expert, but to my understanding which may be wrong you want to use as small injectors as you can get away with safely to achieve the power you're looking for, because as injector sizes go up the worse they get at atomizing the fuel and the shorter the injector times are going to be compared to injector deadtimes, which leads to it being harder to accurately control AFRs at low rpms which leads to loss in low end drivability, fuel economy, it being harder to start etc.
I was going to use Siemens Deka 2400cc but they are only available in full length and the harrop setup needs 3/4 length. Raceworks no longer offer Bosch 2000cc as they are problematic with certain fuels so 1650 is the largest available that will fit.
Very cool
make sure you wear your brown pants at Willowbank Al, good luck mate don't fence it lol
in my unpopular opinion. this car is everything i want in a crown ✌✌
700hp, pshaaw, give ya a run in me FX grey motor twin overhead foxtails n shaved door handles. Have fun at the drags, looking forward to the vids!
Is this setup drive by wire? That is another option for power management on a blower motor, great job, good luck guys
I believe he did convert from cable to drive by wire yep
I hear all these people with boosted motors say "oh yeah, it's got a real safe tune in it" and then you look at the AFRs and they never get under 11:1 .. And then 1500kms down the track, they end up with glazed bores and pushing oil out the breathers and smoking out the tailpipe. And they go to blame the piston rings or engine builder, not Dr-NES-TUNEBROTHERS' rom 1.13 .. (this is doing it the right way, btw, but there's nothing wrong with having a stoic tune with a turbo engine, it's actually a good thing)
Love the whomp switch 😅
Automatic cable cam! How good!
Cost of fuel no bother to the guys at the Skid Factory..!! If it can take it, give it more. If it can't, we'll find a way we can give it more..!! 🤣🤣🤪
Great job guys. Polestar all electric car adds didn't agree.
Is the current carrying capacity of the two pump’s shared ground ok? I guess it is getting cooled by the fuel but might be worth checking the rating?
I'm pretty sure he checked before installing into his pride and joy 👍🏻
The ground is not shared, it just uses a common post to pass through. Both pumps have a large gauge ground returning to the battery post.
@@theskidfactory good stuff, I normally wouldn’t butt in, but it was on my mind. Thanks for all that you have done over the year, some truly stunning work! hope you have a great Christmas break
Ghost cam button lol
Pretty much, that term or name shouldn’t have the bad rep it gets on forums.

😁😁😇😇😁😁
Would the new X3100 supercharger be a bolt on upgrade ?
Wats up bois from nz 🔥💯🤙🤙
Hey AL, what radiator did you use? I have a 2j with similar power in a ms75 and it gets a bit hot so looking for other options before I build one.
It's a ZD30 D22 Navara radiator.
4:31 I’m not questioning your genius but as an electrician I wonder how much current is going back on the negative wire?
There are two negative wires and also a huge fuel tank and body to ground it.
Should have used the mario mushroom for the whomp
You added bigger injectors, a second fuel pump and turned DOWN the boost?? Are u feeling ok, bro?
Are you gunna run header dumps hahaha
*AES do some good exhaust cut outs =)
Are Australia rules similar to the States? Qualifying and licensing? Or is this more of a open class?
It's not fast enough to need licensing.
Yet.
