Hi mate, great videos. Hey I have a situation. I believe my engine has been put together with only the new channel in #1 cam bearing location but no restrictor in #4. Do you think engine will need to be pulled back down ?

Would you think draining the turbo into a small rear mounted catch can venting to atmosphere, being emptied by a scavange pump would work?

I've seen in another video and it says you need to check valve before the turbo and another after the pump cheers Graham

You're so spot on about the government. I got a VT series one with the five liter. Just a couple quick questions what size turbo would I need and be what I need to do any work to the motor to fuel injected but has it distributor thank you Graham

does anyone know where you can buy the M8 x 1.25 tapered plugs ? I've searched everywhere online can only find the finer thread M8 x 1.0 thread in the tapered plugs which I suspect is too fine for cast iron. I can find M8 x 1.25 grub screws, but they aren't tapered, which I'd prefer to avoid as it has the potential to drop into the oil gallery if it did happen to break lose. I would loctite it, but still.... peace of mind

thanks for the very detailed explanation. The oiling system on these engines is really their achilles heel. Not sure why Holden would have ever considered leaving the main bearings as such a low priority. I've got a moderately worked 5L, makes 310-320rwhp in my VH SS. It's mainly a street car, but I like to get it out on the track for a few sprint days every year. I take it no higher than 6200RPM, but I usually keep fairly constantly between 4500-6200RPM for most of the lap as that's where the best power range is. Pulled the bearing caps off a few times now with less than 15,000kms on the engine since the last time and the bearings, mains & big ends are shot again. I've done the performance oil pump mod, using your other video as a guide, I also fitted an ASR 6.5L internally gated sump. But bearings just aren't lasting. So engine is out again at the moment about this oiling stuff, I need to get a little more serious. I watched the COME Racing video, but Sam doesn't go too far into depth. Your explanation is really good. I like to know the reasoning behind the mods, and you explain trace the order of oiling circuit so thoroughly, so I now understand why the mods are done. Also I don't think Sam mentioned what size restrictor hole to drill into the #4 camshaft tunnel, but you mentioned 2mm, so that was good to know. Only thing I would like to see or find out a little more is what sort of drill you used to drill the hole in #1. I can't imagine getting a drill in there. Maybe you used a 90deg drill and I assume the hole would end up on a big of angle as you wouldn't get the drill in there straight. Still not real confident taking to an engine block with a drill and dremel, but this video certainly boosts my confidence a little.

Needs more like a velocity stack

Thanks mate this is gold, I think you may need to make a few play list of what you've done.

It’s good for weight on the rear tires, and cool air is more hp too, If you have a v8 turbo lag is near non existent plus everything uses 2 step anyway Or The piping is similar length with no intercooler

I see the base plate is slotted were it bolts to the intake, is that one of those newer style base plates that bolts to the 4150/4500 manifolds?

Where abouts are ya from roughly mate? Or could you please reach out to me please ? Id love to catch up with ya

Good on ya mate 👍

What an excellent project! I have a Ford Maverick 4 doors, with a 302 v8 engine, with a 600cfm quadrajet carburetor. Do you have more details about your project? Would it work on the 302 engine? thx for share!! :)

Is that one of those 4150/4500 carb base plates? if so how was the fitment?

Will the oil bleed back or will it mostly stay there for when you first fire it up?

What happened?!? It's 2024 now..Biden is ruining the state's. The past 4 years here has been miserable. I feel like there all a bunch of liars Griff. There all against us believers that are awake ,The people that have been down every rabbit hole and believed in what the supposed white hats and qanon communities were saying...what you say now kind sir?

Yep, that'll do the job 👍

Just subscribed to you, i have done my mod on oil pump that you showed and will be looking at all your other videos, hope your still posting 👍

can these Mods help the 253 as well??? I know there are plenty out there that bag the little 253!, but i reckon it"s a Great motor and it runs far cooler

Do you run a dry sump setup?

what is good for civic sir steel or crbon

sweet thanks

Hi griff, love the progress you’ve made on your vehicles. I Have a couple of questions. I’m planning on doing a turbo stroker and wondering if a cast crank will be enough for my power level. Between 600-700 on the high. Are you using cast cranks in your 308 and 355

Start with shit end with shit . Not meaning that your choice is not what I mean by saying that it means start with problems end with problems.

Hello from Oamaru Sth island New Zealand. Can i spray deck and head surface with Hylomar before installation?.

Shame OP isn't active anymore on this build would've loved to know final power figures and reliability of this combo.

Broo this car and the video are one of the best ive seen!!! Immaculate set up and great work on all the build! Very impressive car. Would love to hear it run mane!👌🏾👍🏾🙌🏾💨💨🏁🏁🔥

Did you ever do it?

Random but do you know what pressure the filter bypass works at?

I also gave up on the medical system, along with so called governments.I found a lot of great information on the low carb down under RUclips channel. Which opened my eyes and Ive now turned my health around. Now I'll be healthy enough to get stuck into the cars and other fun things😊

I’m really sorry to hear that about your wife. I’m sure they do the exact opposite to what you need when you go through the health system. It depends weather or not your condition will turn a profit or not.

I agree, we’re living on a prison planet and invisible bars, with the illusion of freedom. Keep up the great work mate.

Thing look super sick. . .and flat👀👀👀

Damit Griff!!! Car sounds amazing!!!

Hi Griff , I’ve fitted a rear mount turbo to my car and had all the issues you mentioned at 1 min 30 . I made a sump like yours with breathers . Instantly stopped all the issues. Thank you for you advice . Superb!

Much love from California ❤ nice video friend..

Hi griff. Hey quick question, can you do the oil pump mods on the cast oil pumps, thanks

I'm here for it!!!!

Hey Bud, maybe wait till the hoist goes in and jet wash it on the hoist and then wash out the workshop !!!! You'll have to find some way of keeping rain and water sloshing off the road wetting the air filter too. If you run a pod filter. The ratio is stamped on the dust cover flange on the pinion yoke. You've got to be really careful with fish oil because it'll corrode copper wiring and connections quick as anything. She's gunna be a beast when it's finished haha. Take care, stay safe mate. Seeya Rob.....Hey Neat I hope your doing great, keep moving forward.

Exactly same placement i have...Add a caltrac type setup will help keep diff alive as i think diif hop eventally killed my salisbury. I had a gj 4 pinion style diff centre before going the harrop trutrac centre it has now.

Beautiful Ute, glad you're enjoying your time with it again! Can't wait for the next video the truth needs to be spoken

Thanks Griff, I've been quietly and enthusiasticly watching your turbo set up progress for years.. not surprised your awake to everything else going on around us aswell.. looking forward to seeing your progress on the hx ute..👍

Solid base for the project mate! And that turbo location will suit it down to the ground. Senator Malcom Roberts sat down for a great interview on the Gypsy Tales Podcast a couple years ago. If you haven't had a listen its worth it. Side note, Podcasts have been an absolute game changer. When the radio keeps playing the same old songs, and your own playlists are getting a bit long in the tooth, you have this fresh inrush of amazing in-depth discussion to listen to on a long road trip or whilst plugging away in the shed.

Good to see you back Griff.

Awesome. Good to hear from ya

Good to see your back mate!

100% griff. I came here for a turbo adventure and it developed in something far more. Thank you, very refreshing. Full marks to you brother.

so good

hay Jason can you run bigger rotors on the stock stub axle and also run the AU calipers ? whats a cheap way to run bigger rotors? cheers Brett

The dream dies sooner or later
