@shayladiana1555 I know in Victoria no as it had that option from factory. All you have to do is take it to Vicroads so they can sight the new engine number.

Long story short: I took my VR 304 engine with 4L60E home with after my holiday ended in 2010 and i put that engine in a car thats basicly a VK coupe with the steering wheel on the other side named Opel Monza. And i drive it summer every now and then and i love it,the torque the sound the feel wenn floor it......The Holden 304 engine are great engine with decent power for there age and size,i love mine.
Dam sounds sweet as dude nice to se someone that enjoys there car my old clubsport is being re done at moment i had vr clubsport i enjoyed that car while i had it
@@maxgal yep they sweet as i actualy found my old clubby on utube the other day its being restored atm heritage recreations rebuild 461 must say youre car has dam sweet sound what exhaust you running on that
The original Ecotec V6 3.8 had 147kw@flywheel. The VS 5.O had 168kw@flywheel. The extra 21kw is not much but the Holden 5.O V8 sounds so good.💯👍👍 Nice video mate. Keep them coming.
Thats correct but this one is has a diffent memcal and will have around 180-185kw and loads more bottom end torque there is huge diffence in how these engines feel and drive.
@@Berniessen I had a VN Series 1 3.8 V6 Executive T5 manual years ago and my mate at the time had a VP Clubsport with 18Okw and I absolutely hosed that thing from any speed. I ran a 15.1sec 1/4 mile and his Clubsport ran a 15.8 1/4 mile and his was auto and shift kitted. The 5.O V8 injected sounds great, but they are definitely not fast.
@@victorpeirce4753 yes, the VN series 1 were well known to have a lot of low down torque, making it easy to blow a stock 304 V8 at the lights. Unfortunately, Holden tuned down the torque with the VN series 2 onwards...
Nice to see young blokes enjoying these cars. Good on you boys!
Cheers man. Love my older cars
I did my 5.0 conversion with a 5 speed from a 3.8 auto in my VS in 2005 and still have the car to this day!

At 12:24 He’s even got the ‘ 90s period correct car security - the “club” steering wheel lock! So common back then …
