The Wagon is ALIVE! Barra Powered Crown FIRST START! (EP5)

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 ต.ค. 2024
- A beautiful lump of Barra horsepower deserves a respectful engine bay and Woody's Crown wagon is looking a bit abused. Today on The Skid Factory we're painting the engine bay and finalising the last few time consuming jobs so that we can power up the Haltech Nexus R3 and hit kit for a first start!
All of the internal parts used on this engine are available via Goleby's Parts.

🤣 Loved the ending, caught red handed with evidence. Just think of it as Al's signature on the cam cover
Seems like we should probably get that apology on video now, Al....... 🤓
Was great. Got to love the slow motion repetition, just driving it into his brain lol.
I love how Al gets so excited/energized by explaining simple things that are easily overlooked that can make your life a whole lot easier.
The stich up at the end its fricken hilarious
Great to see woody with a mad smile. Excellent info lads!
I'm Simple, when I see Turbo Yoda holding a turbo that's bigger than his head, I don't hesitate to click. Any day that The Skid Factory uploads is a good day. ❤ 👌
its wild watching woody become more confident and skilled over the years, good job mate.
it always makes me happy to see how Al has gotten so confident in front of the camera. Always great work!
Damn Woody it looks soooooooo good man!, wasn't super convinced on the engine paint originally but it ties in so perfectly it really fits and looks factory 👌 im a huge fan of OEM Plus, keeping it stock / factory looking but making all the jam! 😊
I could listen to Al talk cars all day 😊
A tonne of work in this build. Gonna be a great result
Awesome job boys. Hope to see you cruisin the coast soon.
Keen mate! I’ll be driving the shit outta this once it’s done
A tonne of work in this build. Gonna be a great result. I could listen to Al talk cars all day .
Not sure why but I found it pretty satisfying when Al slapped the gearbox.
the quality thing that gives pleasure to the senses and pleasurably exalts the mind and spirit
I especially love how the fresh paint brings out the hammer marks in the firewall.
looks mint!!!! handy little prep tool for annoying spots is a miltitool with small sanding pad attachment gets those tight spots and saves the hand sanding because who wants to do that shit
More runs than Davie Warner's last ashes!
Good job Woody, looks awesome 👍
Love the new leaky toilet T-shirt!! Certainly tickled the old funny bone. Great work on the old girl. A really nicely sorted old Crown. Gonna be mint when finished 😊
Still the best channel on TH-cam and I was here right from the very first MCM days so I'm including them in that
my fav builds are the crown builds as they are your own dream type builds
always done right
Great episode, full support!
Good bolt access, A plus!
Looks better with the chip anyway!
Awesome project. That scratch will be worth millions one day!! Also, ROGER!!! He's gotten so big.
Hi Al and Woody,
If you can find an AN safety bolt with the rating you require for the flex plate, you can safety wire the bolts just like an Aircraft would have for the propeller. Bolts at your strength range exist, and all that’s left is learning to safety wire.
Love the channel, thanks for the great content.
What a sweet, SUPER clean build. I love the Champagne valve cover. An engine bay of distinction. Can't wait to see it in action!
This car has come up so sweet, looks mint, well done
Grab yourself a mackielec flexplate retainer kit. Highly recommend his kit with the arp bolt kit.
I love Toyota Crowns. I owned 3 when I was in my mid 20s in the early 2000s. I loved the 1970s models....mainly for their look. I had a '76 and 2 '78 models. First real work i ever did on a car was fully recondition the 6 cyl Toyota donk in the '78 crown. Amazing vehicle. So comfortable....sooooo well made. It had extras that I didn't see become common in other cars until the early 2000s. I just loved the lines as well. They were a beautiful car and still are.
I was told that you could drop a 6 cyl from a Ford or Holden in it without too much drama....that was a bit beyond my abilities at the time (I only had a Haines manual for a Cressida, that had the same engine as the Crowns....no TH-cam back then to help me out lol). If I could find another 78 model crown in half decent condition, id buy it in one second flat. I've driven other luxury cars from the same era and the Crown was simply better in every respect. I miss them big time...so this warms my cold dead heart 😁
Hay woody, the master can make a mistake. So you don't need to get mad. Love the the job you guys do, keep up the great work you guys do.
😂😂 im a little over barras but to see woodie chomping at the bit to go cruising with the homies is worth it.. and like always it looks good like it was ment to be there👍 fricking nice work lads
I didn't notice until right at the end the rocker cover is the other car colour. Once I noticed that the car just made sense, love it! Makes me wanna buy a wagon and put a barra in it. Awesome build, great work Woody!
You must be pumped! Can't wait to see it out at Lakeside or QR.
Sick beats! Also love the work y'all are doing.
Good on ya Woody! Really happy for you. Always so exciting when a project fires up for the first time.
Kart build was epic, ad was epic, this is also epic, love ya work boys
Maybe Nord-Lock washers could help with the flex plate bolts? As far as I know, they are specifically designed for vibrating environments.
Looks and sounds the business
Awesome to see. Congratulations woody
you've been busy little beavers, sounds pretty smooth for a basic map, thanks for taking us along with you :-)
Awesome work boys been watching News for ages. I think I’ve been watching you since you started your channel with money car mods been watching you ever since
Al's knowledge is always helpful!
OEM+ builds are my absolute favorite.
Top tip. FGX power steering pump, as from factory will leak out of where the hose goes into the reservoir in the swivelly bit, and give the alternator a lovely slow bath. Ask me how I know....
Congrats Woody. Looking good!
Cheers, Sev
Awesome build, looking real tidy. Personally woulda loved to see it manual, but cool none the less!
Love your vids guys. My fav channel on the tubes
Awesome job lads, nice ride Woody.
That Barra sounds flat nasty. And that's just at idle. Ooooooh boy.
Great job fellas. Engine bay looks sweet. Loved the reveal shot! 😂
Nordlock washers will stop any bolt from coming undone. i'm surprised more people don't use them. they're costly but bulletproof.
I believe it takes 1.5 the tightened torque for them to come loose. I remember when I worked on oil rig equipment, bolts installed with notes was the only ones not requiring safety wire.
I use them on exhaust manifold studs. Failproof and a fraction of the cost of titanium
Hi great work ,for the power steer pump use a Kelpro none swivel high pressure line it fits straight into the stupid swivel fitting but locks in position and 100% does not leak.
hot diggidy!
happy days
cheers
jim
Bloody love you legend's! Keep on keeping on! 🎉😂❤
Sounds beastly and that ending haha what a crack up
Sweet ride Woody. Looking forward to the cruise eps in it. Thanks guys
Great to see that you finally started to utilize turbo speed sensor - they make a big change in how you tune the engine
Yes, as a rule of thumb, the engine cranks off the battery, but the car runs off the alternator, so taking the power for the vehicle from the latter is a sound move - especially as the alt' battery/starter cable is usually a heavy gauge, anyway, on modern vehicles because of the high alt' current potential.
I also agree about the over-use of the word "billet", when "machined" is often a better term.
this things starting looking as good as a trailer queen. thank god it won't be. can't wait to see giving it some stick and you having a ball in this one. cheers to all for such a great builds and letting us all come along.
Great work and very informative as usual
Good bolt access. A+
Like always, great content from Al and Woody. Potentially aerospace 12 point bolts with lock-wire holes could be a solution for the flex-plate bolts coming loose.
Best show on the internet.
This thing is mint.
Jam 2 o'rings on the power steering res
We did.
Love that Barra Bass! Hope the "after show" isn't bad news!
Great engine bay refresh
awesome work!
i am excited to see this thing done
This is coming on real nice 😎 for the flex plate to crank, you could drill additional holes in the flex plate and use sturdy tab washers with a hex head bolt to stop them moving.
It looks really good guys, I’m stoked to see it on the road soon
That idle sounded promising.
Epic build guys, it truly is a masterpiece. love the show.
Lol the trans tunnel has had quite the massge hasn't it lol😂😂😂😂😂😂
You get that on the big jobs
Congrats on getting it running. Be cruising in no time.
Its awesome, congratulations Woody!
that sounds mint,bro !🎉
I love the wheelie bin bench
Great work as ever guys 👍🏻 enjoying this build
Roger is a gorgeous Ridgey!
I had a Ridgeback years ago - his name was Zacker - after the old capital of Rhodesia!
Nice build! Re: the flex plate...could you safety-wire the bolts?
Mackielec retainer ;)
Or use Nord-Lock washers?
It's not just the bolts loosening that's the problem. The heads shear off them too. I'm the first guy to recommend Nordlock washers in the correct application eg exhaust manifolds, turbine housing to manifold, turbo oil drain. But a flex plate , I think a Nordlock may increase the likelihood of shearing compared to a retainer.
Mungy protective film left on torque wrench display!? TRIGGERED!
Could you use aerospace bolts on that flex plate? Torque them and use the lockwire to lock them to each other. Little overkill, but on this case maybe necessary if it's recurring problem on those barras.
Appreciate the content guys👌👍
Such a cool build. Love seeing the old cars get new heart transplants 🍺
Dam, impressive build right there. 👍
Great job guys !
Yr boys videos are the best you deserve 1miillon subscribers can't wait to see a massive skid
Also another way to make sure the flex plate bolts dont rattle loose is using mackielec industries bolt retainer plate 🙂
Could you safety wire them like they do on aircraft?
25:42 Woody living up to his name xD
This Crown went from being pretty cool to fuckin awesome!!
ahhhh rodggiee the riddgeee .....
A+ on the rocker cover paint job Woody, oh wait.... xD
This car is gonna be so rad I love it
Looking forward to your first EV build/ swap ⚡👌
Very cool build.
I think the correct answer for the 4spd is turbo love load gears slow you down.
Lumpin out!!
That engine bay is lookin schmico 👌
You pair are just plain fuckin MADD!!! and I like it😊
Stoked for you Woody!👍
