YOU, Sir, are my new Hero! Pushing 700 RWHP out of an old beater Volvo 240 is GENIUS! The fact that you do it all with a humble, gentle, knowing *SMIRK* and attention to detail , WITH a KILLER Sound Track - Priceless! … sub’d😎
@@STREETMACHINETV cheers for the content mate. One day I'll get around to learning how to swear and yell loudly whilst also learning how to work on my car 🙃😏🤣
Soooooo It's Friday Scotty, Its not raining either :-) Heathcote Park with a fresh Wastegate spring in your pocket? Surprising lil nugget that Trolvo, Trollage 400 meters a pop.
I love the increase in performance that this old work horse is producing, I look forward every week for updates on the trolvo. As for the Torana, reuse the old V6 out of the VN as that would be a great option also keeping it all Holden as I will enjoy seeing the modern engine( well compared to the Old Torana) can produce as the Torana is such a light car compared to the VN so power to weight distribution would only enhance the car. Great work on Trolvo brother
Scotty has dragged this car kicking and screaming all the way, to a place of bespoke Volvos. A place only cars that have earnt respect the hard way. All hail the spannerman who got her there!
Good memories being remembered with this vid! I miss my 1.5J. Im old and drive a VW now :( My timing combo was 2000's era HKS purple timing belt, ross balancer, titan gears and clear cover! Seems super lame now when I think about it .
Damm that’s a tough engine. Repetitively leaned on and still very consistent. Good work mate. Great camera work too. Lots of angles = interesting footage. Thanks SM
@@STREETMACHINETV Yea I enjoy watching and learning all the small tricks that come with building different engines. I’m about to do my LS. It’s getting a lot of love.
Giving you a thumbs up for no other reason than changing the belt (the rest of the video is good too). A smart man doesn't make a rod for his own back.
Yay ! Happy to see the new engine didn't take any serious damage and is healthier then ever 😃👌 .. can't wait to see you on track with the omelet, errh, Trolvo, again, hunting for that PBT .. ^^,
495 killerwasps are nothing to sneeze at. Well done Scotty. I'm hoping you learned a lesson about closing the plug gap over feeding it more spark. Can't wait for the next video. What is more exciting is that the power is constant, not a one off dyno peak figure, that is a genuine 495.
@@STREETMACHINETV true, but it should only be considered a temporary fix. If you are closing the gap to stop the boost blowing it out, that is a sure sign you need a stronger spark. As the dyno told you in spades, without enough spark you can't light all of the fuel, and the power suffers.
I traveled a long way to go to that little car show on the last weekend I was a little Disappointed that you and the trolvo were not there Well I didn’t see you It was a very good show 👍👍 May not be 500 but pretty close really I’d be happy with that
I hope it will perform same at the track as at the Dyno but im afrid thats hope as the air temp and wind etc can play a large role on power but fingers crossed for the weekend.
Not sure about your comment re: lining up cams doesn't guarantee crank is lined up. Unless it had jumped teeth, it absolutely guarantees the crank lines up. I think you may have been thinking about the opposite scenario. Lining the crank up can have the cams in 1 of 2 positions, but lining up cams always has crank at the right spot.
I'd be looking at the accessory belt alignment / tensioner strength, flat belts don't usually flip over. I'd even be inclined to make a tensioner limiter in case it is bouncing at high RPM / vibration.
I probably tagged the limiter in the burnout and it bounced, it was an old belt. We just did seven passes the other day and the belt stayed on just fine. It was just a one time thing.
Quick Question Scotty, mate does it matter how you put the harmonic balancer back on, meaning is there any areas which are of a concern, especially if the crank does not have a keyway on it, also if the car is a stock one as well, not a heavy duty or race type balancer etc?
@@STREETMACHINETV thanks just wondering that's all, especially aftermarket balancers & does it matter how they go on, i.e is there a spot on the balancer which needs to be pointing to TDC or it does not matter?
By going from a 3 bar internal map sensor to an external 5 bar map sensor you have changed the resolution of the sensor map. So while you would think PSI is PSI, it is possible there might be a slight tuning discrepancy. Curious as to why you didn't go for aa 4 bar to get better accuracy.
You are so lucky Scotty, Ive been chasing a surging/misfire problem for months, spent over a thousand replacing gaskets, sensors, throttle body, TPS, IACV, and hiring an auto electrician to check wiring. Turns out to be the same issue with crank trigger, it all started with a clutch start at 40kms that threw the drivebelt off too. I am doing the same job this weekend provided golebys send the new billet trigger wheel in time. Kudos to Knight Family Motorsport for putting me in the right direction. Also mine has a vvti crank trigger wheel (36-2), apparently it provides more timing accuracy. Question, did you have to time the engine again and change the trigger offset angle in the ecu afterwards?
Scotty I know the plan for the Trolvo is to eventually sell it but are you planning on installing any additional safety devices like a race seat and/or some kind of a spec cage given it’s making half a mega watt now?
@@STREETMACHINETV About the same price as the billet pulley and reluctor (Did a quick google after your comment) It would eliminate the potential problem again in the future ?? Cheers Scotty
As much as I like the barra engine both the turbo taxi and the mx5 are barras. You need some variety in the fleet. And there's nothing wrong with a JZ.

Can appreciate the upgrade on the installed parts opposed to going stock parts and risking the same issues again,smart man.
You would have thought twenty years ago you would be playing around with a Japanese turbo six in a Swedish car making videos for the Internet?

Top work Scotty should have been a sick day yesterday at HPR no doubt we will see it on a future episode of Carnage 🤣👍🍻
If it were mine, I would be over the moon with the amount of killerwasps it makes :)
Why a morning to see this back on the dyno mate 👍😁
I use my old vvti trigger wheel as a nice paper weight on my desk. Makes for a nice desk ornament. The two holes in it, I use to hold pens, hah!
Nice work Scotty . 👍
Dude you are absolutely amazing 500 kW real wheels brilliant
That engine loves it
I traveled a long way to go to that little car show on the last weekend
I was a little Disappointed that you and the trolvo were not there
Well I didn’t see you
It was a very good show 👍👍
May not be 500 but pretty close really I’d be happy with that
We raced on the Friday at a private track day
I'm diggin this car Scotty . Bummer all the JZ donks are pricey now . Nice work .
Great results. The pb i heard is a good number too. Wish we could get more viewers.
I wish we could too,
I love this brick
The fastest fondu machine in Australia … potentially?
greetings, what gasoline was used for those numbers ?
I hope it will perform same at the track as at the Dyno but im afrid thats hope as the air temp and wind etc can play a large role on power but fingers crossed for the weekend.

Yes, true.
all the back pressure lol
good to see scotty! was it a simple setting in the haltech for an external map?
Essentially yes, but need a little calibration by selecting the right sensor, which I didn't do
Massive power
6:33 scotty thinks this engine is going to last 5 years. we can only hope it does but... Carnage
The engine will be for sale next week

What did you use for lubricant on the vee seal rubber on the crank seal ?
No lube required, other than Vaseline when we assembled the engine
Quick Question Scotty, mate does it matter how you put the harmonic balancer back on, meaning is there any areas which are of a concern, especially if the crank does not have a keyway on it, also if the car is a stock one as well, not a heavy duty or race type balancer etc?
I haven't had much to do with non keyway balancers. But I'd just put some antisieze on it, and tighten to spec
@@STREETMACHINETV thanks just wondering that's all, especially aftermarket balancers & does it matter how they go on, i.e is there a spot on the balancer which needs to be pointing to TDC or it does not matter?

660 plus out of a 1.5 j is great numbers

Nope we just fitted the new tigger wheel/pulley, put the new belt on (obviously making sure everything was lined up) and hit the key
@@STREETMACHINETV Thank goodness!
I'd call it 500rwkw and claim the dyno was reading low! 😀
Good luck Scotty, are you racing at Heathcote or Calder?
We raced it at Heathcote last week. We're slightly ahead at the moment
Scotty I know the plan for the Trolvo is to eventually sell it but are you planning on installing any additional safety devices like a race seat and/or some kind of a spec cage given it’s making half a mega watt now?
Nah, all that costs money and the bosses have asked that I move on to other projects
Go the trolvo
Bit late for this comment but if you use the 2jz lower timing cover it will get rid of the gap between the upper and lower
3litre engine = 650hp. No one would complain about that!
Good episode
Dose anyone make a billet timing cover scotty ?
Time to go run some numbers 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I'm sure someone probably does but it would be dollars
@@STREETMACHINETV
About the same price as the billet pulley and reluctor
(Did a quick google after your comment)

Cheers Scotty
Yes❤ 😁🇭🇲
Well, from 650 to 660, I guess there's something else holding the engine back besides how much boost you can pump into it?
Wastegate spring, but it doesn't really matter now
Whats going on with the lexcen its just sitting there on the hoist doing nothing it hasn't been properly in a video since the 2022 new years video
We're working on it now
Need Barra timing belt😁
woohoo
Why not a Barra in the volvo?
Because the JZ is more compact
@@STREETMACHINETV ah it should fit 🙂 lambo V10 (with some mods) and american V8 fits.
As much as I like the barra engine both the turbo taxi and the mx5 are barras. You need some variety in the fleet. And there's nothing wrong with a JZ.
@@daw7563 lots of mods and still not running.
Because he bought this with a 1jz fitted?
Have you got your racing license renewed yet ??????
nope
Put copper plugs in it ffs. You can run bigger gaps. Change them more often. Read the ngk listing ffs. Copper are for more performance.
Says no one who actually builds performance cars
🐠🤘😁
😜👍🇦🇺
Aren’t 90’s Toyota engine non-interference?
Doesn't apply when you put cams in them
