Question: What was your Favourite Vehicle?
The 242gt was very nice as was the elite xy.
That mighty boy was my favourite because or it's insanity 😂
White 911 with Black wheels
Mighty Boy Machine. Cheers for the ep!
Hearing aid beige crown 👑
I knew this setup would be right up your alley :D (Mightyboy owner). Was good meeting you guys! thanks for the future trophy to!
I dont know the first thing about those cars but i just fell in love with that the instant it came across the screen. Nice swap, tasteful execution! Definitely won in my eyes.
Alan is on fire in this episode lots of LOL
Precisely what I came to the comments to say!
Next level confidence, very proud of you Al. ❤
He's definitely come a long ways since "functional mute" when he first started being a guest on MCM 😂
I love how Al has become so good and natural on camera. It is simply joy to watch and listen.
Al really is one of the greatest presenters. Half the reason I watch is to listen to his wisdom.
Cheers for that effort fellas. The Mighty Boy was a great choice I reckon. Mad little unit. And the show itself was awesome. Again cheers for the fun.
Ripper video Woody and Al!
That's my FJ45 cruiser and it kinda has an engine swap, it was originally a H diesel and someone has swapped in a 2F haha
I'm in the process of building up an injected 5 litre for it now 🤙
Al was great in this video. The Torana was the best, I just love them. So many amazing superchargers from Harrop!
Al... once again, im very proud of you. 🙌
Your confidence was next level with your presenting in this episode, i certainly couldn't do what youre doing here.
More power to you. 🙌🙌🙌🙌❤️
Al, just like everyone is saying, your confidence on cam now days is great mate we all love your character and wisdom.
On the Simmons subject, they come in a single piece and a 3 piece,
Cheers mate and come to WA some time
Actually...that white wagon with 308 looking motor looks 👍👍 gotta love the old vb vc vh's
Really enjoyed this episode! Very entertaining! Been a Patreon subscriber of your channel for a few years. Keep up the good work fellas ! Hang in there with winter knocking on your door.
So I have a small block ford swapped e36. I built the engine from the bare dart block. All eagle forged rotating assembly. I run a stock 302 bore but 4.125 inch stroke. I believe the math comes out to a 355 stroker. It has LS style OEM main bearings and the rods are an LS part number from eagle. Pistons are from diamond. My grandpa was Rusty Wallace's engine builder in the 90s so he helped tremendously. He machined this insane support girdle for the main caps, machined my dry sump pan, and took the aluminum summit brand heads and made them absolutely insane. I have all crower cam gear and cam with some purple billet 1:7 ratio rockers that are actually from a ford nascar engine. It's a 14.5:1 engine. I run it on c12 with 10% nitro. She makes almost 800 wheel hp. It's also port injected on a holley dominator and coil converted with all LS style coils from MSD. It's an absolute Fuggin monster. BTW I run a spool and my car is easy to push. Because the only thing that breaks are axles. It's been 4 seasons and other than axles and having to send the Jherico off every year I've had zero issues. I drive it to work on Fridays, my wife and I rip up to lake Tahoe all the time, I take our twin boys' friends out in it, their parents, even the boys' auto shop teacher has screamed his voice hoarse in it. It weighs 2620 with me in it and I run 315s out back. All you who know cars know 2700 lbs with sticky 315s and 800 naturally aspirated horseponies equals one thing, violence. All out chaos and violence.
Jherico 4 speed
For us from the States, this is a very different show than we would usually see. I know almost none of these cars (except for the European and Japanese world cars). The dreaded LS swap is everywhere I see. Here in the States it seems like everything has a Texas Speed 427 stuffed under the hood/bonnet. Instant 450 hp. Now replace the rest of the driveline.
What I didn’t see was any of the big Ford engines like the Coyote or Dodge Hemi’s. Are these just not available in Australia? The new Fords are a real challenge to all of the LS’s here in the States.
It was real interesting seeing both the commonalities and differences. I know you guys face some real challenges building these road cars in Australia compared to here. Nice to see that the car culture is still alive down under.
Great to see Jamie nice and comfortable on screen :D
Thanks guys,as always a very relaxed feel to your feature presentation,weather's the same as our Scottish summer.😂
The 13B Kei thing is neat but I think the classic looking LS resonates with me more.
Wow!!! The white wagon with the 308 looking is KILLA!!
Thanks for braving the weather and having the chance to catch up at the Harrop stand, Good Luck at Road Trip and can't wait for the next Lemons Squash 🍻🍻
Many great looking cars there!
Ofcourse since I'm a Capri fella, I got to love the Capri!
Melbs putting on the sunshine. Love Melbourne for cars and little else. Good on you boys for rugging up.
Mean day out by the looks, cheers for everyone's hard work putting it all together 😎
Great show boys ,well done
Definitely get a Arc droid, I got one when I saw finnigan from FSN get one. So good! I was 7th person in Victoria to have one.
Oh and btw: if Paul from FabRats can operate the little CNC plasma machine then Al & Woody can do it, too. It's like drawing, but with metal! 😁😁
So good! Great presenting Alan. :D
that Porsche was a close runner up for motor swap excellence
Damn that Ford Capri is really something special 😍, what a weapon of a car !!!
Irmscher is actually a bit more than a wheel manufacturer, for example they've operated Opel factory teams in competitions and there have been several oem releases with their name, like a turbo Gemini
Turbo yoda killing this video 💥😎👏
When was the last time anyone called him that?
The Lincoln is the only familiar vehicle to me. Think of a panoramic view on a comfy couch while touring a beautiful countryside. You could power brake them to get the rear tires warmed up. They were not meant to go fast. Yet the engine was utilized by no less than Holman-Moody in their racing efforts.
That mighty boy is awesome to watch go down the track
Some lovely motors.
"I don't have to heat my turbos up!"
Pffffffhahahaha, you gotta love those quips on nitrous vs turbos... 😂😂😁😁😇😇🤘🤘
succulent Chinese meal part had me dying 😂
Just started watching this 😮 13b Migthy Boy WTF❤
14:16.... Those were some strong up and coming mullets in the making...
I had a brand new XF but it was marketed as a Nissan Long Reach
I had a Mk 1 Capri V6 in 1974!👍👍👍
Cool to see that Harrop has made a modern Windsor Blower setup- once they've made a Clevo one I'm sure they'll be in high demand!
2.44 & 4.53 OMG finally skid factory famous 😬
Definitely get an arc droid, also Al in pants is a trip
A SUCCULENT CHINESE MEAL!
Democracy manifest?
Ahh yes, I see you know your judo well
Nice work Al and Woody ;-)
Al looks like he's about to tune some holleys with those sneakers
Quadrajets only.
your beast video love this vid lads
Haha the Ford ute at the factory is so obviously getting a Miami swap! Can't wait 🎉🎉😊
Absolutely not, it has had a GM engine removed and is getting another fitted.
The falcon xh xr6 Ute is my favourite…
You need a T-shirt
“It has got an LS, but I’m not even MAD!”
Thanks guys awesome vid mighty boy wins
Chilly Repeating on me. 😂😂
MIGHTY BOY FOR THE WIN!!!
MAD
You had me at 2 speed powerglide
100% Bang on about the Simmons, genuine 3 piece ones are quality wheels and single piece ones made by who bought them out are junk.
Most youngings are stoopid and think only rays, works or any jdm brand are the only quality wheel..
tell them compomotive, O.Z, campagnolo, simmons, bbs etc are better genuine race quality wheels they'll bleed off every fast car they've seen or heard about to incorrectly try prove you otherwise
I love the nissan stagea's awesome estate car 👌
In our family it's, "Happy Spouse, Happy House"
Just a guy in the US that wants harrop to build the Cleveland blower so I can replace my little roots blower. :)
So it's a Coyote going into the aforementioned XH. Gotcha 👍
Al, please do a full on for your mate's blue Capri- awesome is a small , small word for it.
The guy that owns the ratrolla is bigger than the Hoff.
Im.also 6'1" and we cruised there together IN it.
that capri is gorgeous.
Thanks for actually braving the shit weather and filming outside, not a lot of Real Street content been put out. Had my iron lion wagon there.
"doesn't mean it's not a cool car... stop it!" Amen TurboYoda, amen.
Have to agree with you about No Mang.
The Barra is Mang, for millennials. It sounds as bad as a 3.8, but it’s tolerated because it makes more power.
what were you smoking to come up with that? a barra sounds way better than that shitter v6, a diesel I6 with a 5inch drainpipe exhaust will sound better than just about any V6 never mind that 60s buick POS
It can sound good when done correctly but with a log manifold and screamer it sounds terrible, still not as bad as a 3.8 tho
An RE cam cool
Another shrimp on the barbi mate LMFAO
That red was a vauxhall vectra in Europe I'm sure🏴
Same plateform except its way beefier with an actually good drivetrain and a tad bigger
What's that? El with a blown Windsor knocking at the door???
Harrop blown Coyote powered XH ute
What are you like on the grinder woody? 😂
The wheels on that Porsche though.
Cleanest intercooler/charger fabrication for next years comp.
Mightyboy deserved it! Damn epic
The reason there are a ton of good cars in Melbourne is because the weather is shit and every one hides from it and the missus in sheds.😎👍
I'm getting coyote swap xh xr8 Ute vibes!!!!
Same here, will be a good build series.
aye could we get some more Paj content??
My favourite vehicle was unfortunately glossed over ,you near damm tripped over it ,the mighty LS powered XY Falcon from James Mackie
LS Powered is excluded unfortunately. We did have a great dinner with James and a bunch of other cool crew on Saturday night though.
Jaimie Best bloke
…
Awesome parts the raceworks products
Capri is the engine swap winner i reckon🤠👍🪨🎸🪵
I just love seeing highly modified cars on H plates….. I hope the authorities are paying attention 😉
If anyone not from Australia would like to know why that guy was talking about a succulent Chinese Meal, look up Cecil George Edwards.
2:04 Initial D 🎉
“Nat’s What I Recon” , eh?
My understanding is that a street car/street machine is a car you can legally drive on the streets without getting defected every time a copper pulls you over.
🐠😁🤘
We need a new shirt.. 'turbo ls, I'm not even mad'
Al, stop harassing the mannequins lol.
That's the only time ALAN will be wearing that much clothes, God love you AL,is in Melbourne 😅
Mpw Capri is off it's MEED'S..insane.
I do get rigid seeing and sitting in a genuine set of brides.. But can you drive Sydney to Brisbane, or an hour every day, in a bride?
Two esoc cars in the video? (Unless I missed another one)
Edit, yep I missed one haha
On a long enough timeline everything gets an LS!
What was the simmons incident that Al was talking about?
A guy commentating the Street SuperCruise at Summernats a few years ago calling out every car with chinese Simmons wheels by saying "Simmons! Yeah Bud" Now people call them Yeah Buds.
@theskidfactory dam, that's sad. I'm in NZ and didn't know. Still getting me a set though
Howcome Al's legs always get shaky when he says rota, bout time you rota swap something lads :)
Tell the Capri signwriter it's Dual BOV, duel an 70s trucking movie starring Dennis Weaver or what 2 8year old boys do at the urinal
Coyote + XH ;)
Nah, that would make too much sense. GM powered.
It looks like Al is picking his nose all day with the big finger. lol
Turbo 1HZ > TD42 > 1HZ
🤣
its no contest.... mighty boy wins
Where were the girls? lol
