Awesome video! Very informative and thoroughly done. You really know your stuff and I thoroughly enjoyed watching it. I'm sure a lot of people will learn a few things by watching. Thanks for sharing buddy.👍😀
@@davidnguyen9409 oh you want a tutorial video. If you want to learn watch David Vizard power tech 10 on youtube. I learnt much from him in the late 70"s and even now. Dont be a smart arse.
I would love to know what inlet manifold gasket set Mick would use on a HSV 215i stroker. Really enjoy all your video's really hope to see more soon Cheers guys.
Hi just wondering what is your rtv silicone gun called and where can I buy one pls. Also love your videos, you're a very talented engine builder. Thanks
is this the magic larry perkins blocks that are ultra rare? he had access to the sand block castings and thickened up the block in the required areas for strength which won him the 95 or 97 bathurst as he kept old school to the american engines??
Love your work. what would you charge me to screw one together? i have an offset grind 330 with dash 3 heads but i would like to get a stock bore 304 and a 355 kit to make a decent bottom end that i can put my existing heads on
Hi mick, can you use 304 heads on a 253? If so what do you need to do, I'm sure yiu have to run a different cam, push rods and lifters, is there anything else you have to change. I have a red engine
Love this video, I've watched it about 5 times.👍🇭🇲 So you reckon the block in my 1997 clubsport has the relief cast into the block? I want to stroke it someday, what do think of the scat 9000 cranks? Good on ya Mick
I got a 5ltr VS VQ black block, l want to put in my old 1984 HJ47 cruiser. I currently have a 308 in it goes good but lacks torque when pulling a tandem trailer and gets a bit hot. I have since found out that these old blue 308's lack good oil flow through no.4 galleries under load so with this 5ltr l got I would like to upon up the oil galleries on no.4 to keep the heat down as l keep doing no.7 & 8 plugs on the 308 because of reduced oil flow which creates heat and also open up the main oil gallery at the front of block, plus l would like to diagonal 4 bolt main it. I'm looking for more torque say around 385, l not looking for anything stupid and around say 365 horse, but here's the $64 kicker?? I would also like to put 6 pound turbo boost on it for overtaking road trains on a hill where most times l have to sit behind the damn truck with the 308 cos it just doesn't quite have the get up and gallop l want with the trailer on. So would l be able to get that torque out of a 355 or should l just go Chev. But l really like the 355 to plonk in the old toyota where it's easy to fit, l've already made the firewall adjustements, rego blokes give me the thumbs up, easy to work on, plenty of parts and it's still a holden block and a bit c heaper on fuel, l run 98 on the 308 anyway, but also rub the new tojo's up the wrong way with a bit more grunt😁. So whatiya reckon ol mate, is it worth it and can it be a workable reliability ? Love to hear your feedback if possible👍 I live in the NT, Humpty doo .. Cheers

Mick is the go to man. Sharing his years of knowledge and knowhow. Much appreciated.
Awesome video years of knowledge from a great mechanic 👌🏼

Awsome watching a master doing his work
This guy knows really how to build a engine u can see it by how fast he works and how u knows the tricks of what and where.....
Ok. He is an assembler. Not a builder. I wouldnt let him in my workshop. Wonder if he can make 578hp from a non stroked VN engine. I did .
@@stuartclements9290 make a video and show us how you did it?

How many race winning engines have you built David Nguyen.???
@@stuartclements9290 what was that at the crank, what did it make at the wheels???

Hey mate can you by any chance run through which stroker kits are better then others and like pros and cons sort of thing
Love it Bro. Keep up the great work🍻

First of all that is bullshite. LP used a Holden engine until 1993 and not one day past 1993.

great job mick i am always impressed with your skill's and knowledge another great video thanks again
Did he fart at 2:08?
Haha, someone did
Sounded like a bit of piston slap 😂
if you guys take requests, please ask the great master his best flat tappet cam run in advice for a future video plz :)
Why not use a single piece sump gasket ?
Hi mick, can you use 304 heads on a 253? If so what do you need to do, I'm sure yiu have to run a different cam, push rods and lifters, is there anything else you have to change. I have a red engine
did you cc this engine ? what compression is it ?

@@MSEngines Goodonyamate cheers
What brand of pistons did you use in this engine? Thanks
Looking at building a 355 as we speak looks like im gonna be searching all your videos instead if working haha
I have a VT roller bottom end in my HZ premier same factory rod relief😁
I love watching “old school mechanics” do this shit. Onya mate 👍
How can I tell if my block is a sroker block do you have to pull it apart to tell
If its after 1995 it will be
What’s the white grease called? Brand etc?
@@MSEngines legend
Ever done a 3rz Toyota engine
Bet that motors guna fucken boogie!
02:07 a fart?
Boys! I love this video until you said my 1993 Clubsport doesn't have factory clearance. Great video.
It wont if its the original engine. VR series 2 were the first of the 304s to be cast with the reliefs. Look at the date code on your engine.
A9l rods
Mick serious question did Holden design and build the first l S engines please ?????
Ed Koerner designed the LS engines which were originally corvette engines.
