- Today on The Skid Factory Al's 454 Chevy Big Block has arrived back from Harrop Engineering. We can now fit the donk back into the car but first we must prepare the chassis for a coat of 2K Black and treat the underside of the floor with some Underbody Rust Protection from @supercheapautotv
Painting supplies and equipment was all been purchased via Supercheap Auto.

I'm still amazed when your motor broke in the engine room you did not hear it sounded off.i guess you think barras are good so you probably have become used of hearing shit,mate your motor sounded all wrong
Righto Champ.
@@theskidfactory your ego getting abit big there champ.a def person pick that bb was off,the sec it fired,but room full of big ego that think there cool,missed it embarrassing I no alot of people picked up on it,but hey you are the man,
How was it “off”.
It was run for over 30 minutes beforehand. Then the cam broke. Because it had a casting fault and the extra set of valve springs finished it off.
The fact that they pinned this comment is the best part about it.
@@definitionmedia1130 You absolute wally.
I can’t think of anyone with less of an ego problem than Al and Woody.
Woody “you know when…..you use ur hands to see” haha honestly so relatable to anyone who has done any work on a car
It’s 100 percent a thing
I like to close my eyes and stick my tongue out when I'm seeing with my hands... helps me visualise better 🤣
like a snake, it helps you to taste the location. 🐍
@@eldonerc2524 that’s what she said.
Confirmed this helps a lot
Al might have skipped the wax and grease remover but I'm sure he took the time to blow, tack, and static.
I get that @robbylayton
Haha. Good comment bro!!
Can confirm that seeing your huge engine sitting nicely in your engine bay does give you a boost of determination! Recently got my LS3 and T56 Mounted in the bay of my GT86!
Finally a nice engine in that car
@@Chris-yy7qc Haha yeah I can't wait for my first start. Got all the parts I need to get it finished just need to get the time to knuckle down!
I like this content, no bs and just plain wrenching stuff with good sense of humor.
That 2JZ needs compound turbos 🤣🤣
Or they could just run a G45 like a normal person? 🤷♂️😅
It has a G45 already.
@@theskidfactory thats gunna be a party boys! HANS will be required 😅
The colour of that car and now with the engine sitting there looks absolutely breathtaking!!!
From an old hot rodder here in the states what we've done for years with blown big block Chevy engines is to flip the alternator backwards! They don't care what way they spin!
That doesn't seem right
*googles alternator stuff*
You sir, have just blown my mind. And saved me from having to make some ridiculous bracketry to mount an alternator after supercharger installation.
@@mattjohns3394 trust me! I've done this on at least 15 cars. I've done them backwards and on the frame
@@davidjohnson8474 I just don't know why I'm only finding out about this now. I've stressed really hard about how to run the belt but now I can do it without any problems. Thanks.
@@mattjohns3394 your very welcome! Glad to help. Always remember no need to stress there is always a way!
Technically the fan is supposed to go one way in order to push or pull enough air through the alternator for cooling. I have heard of guys bashing the alternator fan flat and bending the blades back the other way to reverse it (so the air flow goes the same way as before when you spin the alternator backwards). I'm willing to bet in a lot of hot rod and custom car circumstances though that there isn't enough current draw for the alternator to get too hot anyway, and probably still plenty enough airflow with the fan running backwards.
This is my favourite build from The Skid Factory yet.
DON'T MOVE THE CAR.......... My hand's stuck. Probably not what Woody thought he would be saying when he was eating his Corn Flakes that morning. Lol. Such an epic build. Can't wait to see / hear the finished product. Thanks again guys for such an awesome channel.
Hard to believe nobody makes a BBC w/ SC into Crown alternator bracket but there you go.
This is such a sic project, I’ve been hanging for this episode.
Scheduling “pleasant events” is good for depression so scheduling this episode for right now!! Thanks for all the great content (so lucky to have such a great backlog of stuff to watch e.g compound turbos were so clearly explained), it is really helping me guys
Woody with his Faust stuck where it shouldn't be, a look of panic then weird satisfaction after withdrawing.
Classic Woody. Got be a meme in that.
intros are getting better and better every episode. keeps me coming back
The engine looks so great in the car. Epic content as always!
Doing a great job of jamming that thing in the CROWN guys. I found if you have a bonnet clearance issue just heat up the middle with the gas axe and slam the bonnet... FIXED.. Keep up the great entertainment you two. Cheers from west oz.
Nothing like that pucker moment when you realize that you can't get your hand back out from wherever you stuffed it up under a car.
That’s awesome you got the big in her now you must be super stoked I’m stoked for you
Great work! Milestone achieved! It looks so good! Can't wait till next week.
Woody looking like Leon the professional in those sunglasses 😎
Today on the Skit Factory, Al gives an Oscar-worthy performance pretending to not know what an engine is.
Love to see the underbody and chassis painted, really brings the car up. I use that supercheap underbody as well, it is very satisfying to spray
Love that gutted turbo on the forklifts exhaust.
I just love those sketches you do before the intro, there just so funny to watch please keep them going!
i love this build
Just needs up and forward headers.
Great video guys! I like how you fellas are always super engaging! I'm keen for the next ep
"do you know when you're using you're hands to see" ... That one hit close to home 😂😂😂 if you know, you know
Awesome project, thanks for keeping us entertained, our family car in the 70's was a white crown 2300, livin the dream here !
Literally said FT at the same time when you asked the torque specs 😂😂 great job fellas 🤙 stay safe and keep wrenching
It`s nice to see that Al is working on some thing to him self. Nice build bros. Big fan..... yeah boi!
Love watching you blokes building a stupid fun car for Alans own amusement. He has earned it. Fun is not dead.
10:44 Has no one else seen the addition to the Golebys sign? 🤣
“Seeing with your hands” is an idea worth a t-shirt, I reckon.
I would say I had eyes in my fingertips.
I did a similar under coating on my rx7. If you get a big oil leak, the coating never really gets dry properly and starts to peel off. Especially if you don't use wax and grease remover haha. My plan on the next build is to scrub and wash the oem coating if it's in good shape. The crown really needed that refresh though. Great Content guys. You all are my favorite channel. I love the tips and tricks from guys that have been at it a long time like Al has.
Fantastic to see you beginning final assembly Yr own beauty. Are you pit crew again Cresta .
Enjoying the lemon squashes. Time to watch the real fast 1st groop cars .Stig or U with Woody commentating.
Mick London
Dont move the car step bro! My hands stuck! I need another angle!🤣🤣🤣
After building a RS56 Crown ute with a Holden V8, I'm guessing that the fun is about to begin with your building of the headers. Maybe a power rack might be a consideration, at least you get to scoot around the engine a bit better than the straight shot to your standard box. Good luck boys, I'm enjoying the build. Keep up the great content.
Gods engine 😍
Manual rack with power assist?
Bloody hell guys, it definitely looks freaking awesome to see the progress, great video MEN
Hey Woody. When you use your hands to see, close your eyes. 10 bucks says you have better luck finding the hole. If you're looking for a hole at the time hehe.
It's the equivalent to Al putting glasses on to see with his eyes 👀
I really look forward to your episodes guys! This and B is for Build are my favourite shows. Keep up the good work
Yep 👍
Chris builds some cool stuff but he can be a little bit cringe. Can't beat the Aussie stuff 💪🏻
Woody getting flash backs from the week he did work experience at the Vet. Elbow deep.
Elbow deep in a reverse cowl this time.
I love that the underbody rust coating pictures a Defender. Need it for the back end of the chassis. At the front, the Land Rover patent total loss oiling system keeps it rust free.
Love the reverse pour 😉👍
Coming along alright. Gettin' there, mate.
Keen to see this finished mad build
6:10 did u wax n grease remove all that? - "no, ha ha ha" omg that laugh got me bad xD
Looks so sick, can't wait to see the rest of the build take place 😁
Today on the Skid Factory... The crown gets a blown BBC.
Oh what a feeling
The Hulk was your most exciting build to date.
Until now. Bwaaa! Goes the blown Big Block Crown!
Wise words from Alan...
....."BELEIVE".....
Aside from this awesome Crown update, congratulations to James.
I never thought I would see Woody fisting a tight hole in the chassis... 😂😂😂
Some of the best and informative automotive content on TH-cam.
Looking good guys
Awesome build, love the unique car/engine combos
Can't believe the rate at you guys are crankin' out this content right now!!
I need to bust out the welder to try to keep up!
How good is it having Shane Jacobson on the show now!
Great see put together special sweet car
Thank you share your details video as great watching every time
He is the Turbo Yoda!!!!!
Hahaha Al ya blind bastard 😄😄😄😄
Bloody legends gents, thanks for brightening up my Wednesday's 😁😁
Finally ! Ive been hangin for the big block to go in
I've loved all your builds but my favorites are definitely when you are building your own projects, knowing that you'll actually get to drive them rather than handing them back to someone else
keep this crown rolling,first crown i came upon had a control in the back seat you could change the radio station with.
"You're lucky my hands are small"... "that's what she said!" Classic 😂
Lazy bank holiday Monday morning. Coffee and skid factory :)
Did you contact us about the prize?
Al is possibly the only person I've ever seen somehow look younger with glasses
Looks absolutely bloody awesome. Great stuff guys 😎👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Great build! Love the content as always!
Woody looks like Charles Bronson in those sunglasses- (the criminal not the actor ) 😂
I thought the car was going up with Woody's hand still in the chassis for a minute there hahah 😅
Specticals over the glazzies suit ya Al, gonna have a big ole scoop on this one
Great to see some action on the crown.
f'n rad. as always, great work there fellas.
"See with my hand"........we've all been there.
Bloody beauty on the introduction!
Can't wait to see it Finnished
Looking great Al. That’s going to be a nasty beast Thanks you 2. Great episode.
Oh Man, to do that to a Toyota Crfown obviously a model 69-72 somewhere, I have owned a 69 and a 68. A magnificient vehicle which floored the Holdens. Good onya for this effort.
Dad and I were discussing "using your hands to see" on the weekend while removing and refitting my bullbar to install a winch. We both said we found it easier sometimes if you close your eyes.
🤷♂️ al owns a hoist, a touch up with paint down the road isn't an issue... looking SICK AF... 👍👍🤘
Schmingy it up bro!
The big block looks so cool in there guys awesome 👌
Hey guy's, what a demon 👿 build all the best for the not to much stress.👍
I've mounted the alternator on the rearend, powered by the driveshaft, just don't let it idle all day.
Dr robotnik called he wants his sunglasses and moustache back
that Crown would look phat (and justified) with the power-bulge bonnet. 👍💯
Woody: What's the torque specs on that?
Al: Red face tight!
Great work guys.
Did you wax and grease remover that?, nup! Haha. Classic response from to blokes
This is sick now that Woody looks like Dr Robotnic from Sonic
Looks great; something about stuffing the biggest engine you can find in moderately sized chassis feels quint essentially Australian to me. Maybe because OEM Ozzie manufacturers did that from day one. Commodore chassis which we knew as Opels never got more than a 6 cilinder where in AUS that was the base engine. Same as the Ford longroof you did, the base engine in Europe was a tiny 1.2l 4 cilinder. Same chassis, same size.. Similar story goes for a lot of other GM and Ford products. Australia was (most of it is dead and gone) quite unique in that way.
How were the fingers after all those rattle cans gents? Loving how this build is coming together!!! Al you must be getting quite excited =D
Keep up the excellent work as always TSF!!
Seeing with your hands. Or magic fingers. Hard earnt skill.
Lookin really nice Al, Jr. Is going to love to inherit that from you some day.
Having completed one fairly "bolt in" engine conversion, I commend the amount of effort and planning this kind of madness entails! Looking schmiko in the bay.
remember, they only "bolt in" if you have the right bolts. 😆
@@eldonerc2524 lol, true! Although the bolting in was the easiest bit (6A13TT into an FTO). Swap a factory engine mount, keep the factory gearbox and clutch, no problemo.
Plumbing and pipework, however... A bit more complicated 😅
I think Woodrigos must have rendered the video slowed down slightly lol
I was just looking for something to watch b4 bed, and Al appears with a Woody... idk if i will sleep now.
10:24 - magpie lark call
Woody, mate, love ya but ffs "you know when you like, using your hands to see" be a great pick up line!
