@@Anonymouspock Different Demo, why do you like Moog and Marty let Turbo Yoda do the skid factory? Marty and Moog are the light hearted entertainment and the Skid Factory is the nitty gritty detail. Skid Factory is also made by QLD'ers so... I mean cmon :p
You’re goddamn correct there, M&M have sold out and for some reason, Moog always seems to be bloody shouting these days, instead of just being his old, personable self.
I'm sorry but that new engine is gonna run like crap with all those gopro mini cameras in the cylinders, oil pan, valve covers and cam journals. I hate to be "that guy" but I did some internet research and I'm absolutely sure about this one.
Getting better and better!!! I really enjoy Woody's narration, Al's amazing experience and the video production is improving constantly! Probably my favourite show on TH-cam.
18:00 the beat, I SO wish to see The Binky guys cruise with Alan& Woody and Moog & Marty having the "Baby" tune modded to " Binky". These are the best channels on TH-cam and I know that you guys would have so much fun together. A creative bunch of automotive wizards and storytellers. Get it on !
Cool build, To start an old car, as most people are not old enough to have this information, yet I've had the privilege of driving a few- 1. Pump the gas pedal all the way to the floor 4 times. 2. Start car . This works for most old classic cars that are in "running" condition. Great show mates.
Nice to have both though. One is professionals, the other is enthusiastic amateurs...... I too prefer skid factory for the more technical side but Marty and Moog created it. Credit where credit is due I guess. Both shows are much better then any shit on TV at least!
Bedford is done & dusted with what Al & Woody have done. It's away at another shop getting electrics, engine cover & maybe paint. Then it off to the dyno to get some numbers then off to the drag strip. You obviously weren't listening when it left the building.
Genius. Somebody give this man a cookie. Ah but the older model Ford's, Holden's & Chrysler's from aussie are still going to be a mystery for many year's to come if your not from the south pacific though.
We invented a great upgrade to that oil gallery freeze plug. we didn't have the tools to make a bunch of them easily and I saw that Sac City Corvette already had some other nice upgrades for the oil system, so we gave them the idea to make and sell. They just provide us those at cost for our builds. I recommend you check them out.
I love that you love our Americana V8 simpleness. I liken these motors to a 12 gauge pump action. Simply effective at most things but makes for a POWERFUL BLAST!!! 💥 🔥 💨
Wow, that nova is in amazing condition. My grandfather had one, and I still wish to this day I got to keep it after he passed away. Beautiful cars. It's awesome your gonna surprise the owner with a better engine. Really gonna enjoy this series.
Love all the consistent content and you guys are so skilled and so good at what you do. Also I’m American, I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma and I’m 22, and like Chevy and V8s and I like that Al likes that too. That being said I’m really excited for this Nova! My brother has a 68 Nova, 3rd gen, that we are in the process of making cool. I like Chevy and V8s but you guys and mcm have opened my eyes to other cool engines and other brands that are just as cool as old chevys. I just wanted to say thanks for all your hard work and I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season.
I love these. I helped rebuild the engine for a 1972 Nova SS my senior year of high school, then visited Australia just after graduation and discovered Holden. For those unfamiliar, this thing was basically our Monaro. I’d like to see Chevrolet bring the name back for their next compact.
Them little novas are such a dream car. Relatively small (for their time) but can fit a massive V8 easily. Have seen people put Corvette suspension part in there and they don't handle like a cruise liner like they once did. Respect for the decision to keep the motor looking original. That car looks super clean OEM.
I miss my 65 Nova, it too had a 283 with a bigger cam and power pack heads and a 4 speed manual. A drunk douche bag ended it one night. I replaced it with a 63 Nova wagon with a 406 sbc with a 555 solid cam and 2.02 heads. 65 is still my favorite, nice car your friend has. Can't wait to see his reaction!
This is so well done and the quality is way past several acctual TV shows. Amazing work guys. Amazing. I can't stand the clickbait stuff " I bought a car for a million will it run" This is the real stuff acctual entertainment.
Ok, so...the mate wanted a TBI setup. He’s getting a *cough, LS* replacement engine that will superficially resemble the engine coming out. He’s getting a complete vehicle rewire. (Btw, American Auto Wire is AMAZING, fyi.). I hope he appreciates your intentions and efforts, guys. Tbh, I don’t imagine these videos would be getting posted if the guy was unhappy with the outcome. So, skipping ahead to the reveal, so to speak, we can trust the good intentions, and focus on the technical efforts and expertise of the people involved. Which is really what the Skid Factory is all about. Al, it is a pleasure seeing you pop up, I really enjoy your sense of humor and intelligence. It’s clear you have not only a depth of knowledge as Turbo Yoda, but a breadth of technical automotive knowledge. You have become the acid-test for whether I’ll enjoy the video or not. Benny, too. I surely am enjoying the Cresta Series.
If you payed better attention you would have caught the joke, the mate who supposedly wants tbi is the one that sourced the new engine. Did you really think they did a major job prior to owner knowing?
GOOD ON YOU TO START YOUR ONE CHANNEL MATE, FROM A DUTCH GUY LIVING IN BRASIL , AND YES IAM GETTING YOUR JOKES , TAKE CARE MATE LOVE YOUR VIDEOS KEEP THE TURBOS COMING , CHEERS
One trick to building an LS when taking the front cover and oil pan off, You should add a dab of gasket maker to the corners of where the pan/front cover/block meet together and also on the back of the pan where the pan meets the rear cover/block. they are known to piss oil out of there over time.
Mighty car mods .. Soo happy for you guys ! Great Channel you've created here. From mum's garage to what you've created is inspiring and shows what patience, positivity and great friendships can do
My grand pa had some quite similar opelsin the early 60s. Opel rekords 3 of the 62 models before 65 they all rusted up withing a year in the sub frames. In light of that this car is mint.
98-02 LS engine mounts from F body ( Camaro and Trams am ) are used when doing a LS engine swap. You might have to change accelerator pedal assembly to an electronic accelerator pedal assembly.
There's a special procedure that calls for special centering tools to align the front and rear covers. It makes sure the seal opening is exactly centered around the crank and square on the oil pan side. A pain in the ass setup, most engines just use dowel pins to center things up.
That shot at the end of Al playing around in the car. All that needs is David Attenborough narrating, describing a gear head that is content in its natural habitat.
BadKarma 714 how is he a genius..... he is a person that has hand eye co ordination. Or sleight of hand if you like!!! A little knowledge helps... but that comes with experience... not a book!!!

Back in the day we used to prime the lifter/ cam followers with old school oil can trigger pump . Squirt engine build oil lube into the lifter to ensure it was full of oil . Same goes with push rods . Anything with a hole got lubed . Lol

This has easily become one of the best channels on TH-cam.
Agree
I know. Its like MCM except with actual information from people that know what they are doing.
I'm sorry but that new engine is gonna run like crap with all those gopro mini cameras in the cylinders, oil pan, valve covers and cam journals. I hate to be "that guy" but I did some internet research and I'm absolutely sure about this one.
There what you can consumables.
They were just test items whilst the Lemon Squash tins were being machined to size.
It's all about the Lemon Squash if you want true POWErrrrrrr.
It's just for run in, they'll come out when you do your first oil change
yes but video footage=Vlog=profit
Good to see that I'm not the only one that is concerned for all the cameras left inside the engine...

Aaaaand you get todays gold star. I had forgotten the name of their channel!

It's sort of like Project Binky, but with less tea, and more bass!
yes!!!
and i love how much effort went into not calling it an LS.
exactly. this is not a small block.
But why? The name, I mean. Must be an Aussie thing, or a purist thing??
Educate me please.
@@Ecosse57 if its not a small block then what is it? its certainly not a big block. its just the next evolution of the older small block motor.
@@numinous4789because lots of people who follow the show are LS haters so by calling it a gen three small block it helps cushion the blow
"Al is not giving the head bolts any uggaduggas" my favourite line of this month
Lmao I love how they know what people will comment about so they take care of it before all the shit talking starts. Pretty awesome if you ask me.
Loving Al's enthusiasm for the build. Looking forward to seeing the rest of this series.
Damn, that Nova is beautiful. When you opened the "hood" I was impressed right out of the box.
I appreciate the great filming quality, well done.
