Out of all the Car's that didn't finish DCW, I still couldn't believe it when you announced in at the Driver's brief on Sunday! Sure, its got a few KM's but you'd think it would've have had one last run left in it. But now it's time to turn this into the TRUE Street Machine commuter vehicle, I can't wait for the day that Scotty and Telfo go Rock, Paper, Scissors to see who get's as a Daily!
Scotty mate head of to Bunnings and get yourself a handful of white PVC 25mm plumbing end caps they make excellent end caps that fit over the tailshaft and seal up against the output shaft seal no more leaks mate for about $1.50
I just wanted to throw out here, I've been watching you guys, BCW, and the SkidFactory for eons. And as someone that isn't a mechanic at heart. Shows like this give me the inspiration to spanner on myself. 6 months ago I changed my own main bearings and now I'm building a hybrid LLT/LFX engine. I think I should drop by with some free beer at some point. Any preference?
The 4L60 and first lot of 4L60E's were a nightmare forever coming into my workshop causing my mechanics and myself headaches galore not to mention the pissed off customers. Yes the grief of them pissing fluid out either pan gaskets or your right pump/converter seals half the time they died due to fluid loss one way or another.
Wow! You do so much more dismantling of engine for removal than i ever did. I never remove anything from engine, not even harness, just unplug the wiring from engine to under bonnet harness, unplug ecu and remove harness from firewall. engine comes out with everything on it including p/steer if not using it again.
It’s gotta be a sad day when you say goodbye to a donk that’s done so many Kms. It’s almost heading into grandfathered territory where a little bit of respect is due 😂
Highest K's I've ever seen on a car was in the vacinity of 835,000 on a VL Commodore that a car yard was seeling as a 'bonus parts car' along side another mildly done up VL. As bad as that number sounds, I have owned 2 VL's that both had 'bad' odometers, so its theoretically possible that the real number was even higher! Despite all that, and that it was being all-but given away, it apparently DID still run!
I have an XD panel van in my front yard with 1280,000 km on it … Still went when parked I put more than a million on it … I bought it 6 years old and 200k on it The killer rust got her finally Just wasn’t game to drive it after the spring went through the top of the shock tower ….
There is a lot of stuff online about V8 k frames being needed for V8 swaps but I don’t think the belief is well founded. They are the same save for the bracing panels. The V6 bracing has more clearance for the sump. I know that, until recently, you could only get engine mounts to do an LS swap onto a V8 k frame but that’s not the case anymore. Can you please do a piece on what the differences are and whether V8 k frames really are needed and hopefully dispel an internet myth.
Hey Scotty, I have a 2002 VX Commodore that has done 310k kms. The car is due for a service, and I was wondering what your thoughts were about putting Diesel oil in instead. Would it be beneficial for a high kilometer engine, as I have heard... or not?
You can play a drinking game with these Carnage vids. Every time Scotty sighs or groans, you have to take a shot. You'll be atleast half pissed by the end 😉
@@STREETMACHINETV you're tempting fate scotty. you know those seemingly straight forward jobs have a way of throwing up unforeseen problems. either way, i can't wait to see the series. good luck
Has to be the biggest fuck round I've seen takin a motor an box out why didn't you just drop the lot out from underneath if your changing K -frames an using a hoist
Because it can be a bit of a balancing act to get them out that way. Nothing worse than having them slip off the jacks. Plus this way we can still move the car around
It's been a while since I've seen a 'Rage the Cage!' set the engine up on a crate.... Fire it Up n Redline it to its inevitable demise!! TRUE CARNAGE😈 Knock up some zoomies for sh!t n giggles
Hee. Hee. Picked up an '84 Pontiac Fiero with a Supercharged 3800/5-Speed swapped into it. Took it right to the Junk Man who gave me $450 for it. He'll keep it alive for awhile.
Hi Scottie I’m happy to buy the motor if we can organise delivery I’m happy to pay $500 $200 for the motor and $300 for the charity for the school who needs the new bus let me know what you think thanks 👍👍
You guys must be made of money. Who would use a 15c bag to catch oil out the trans, that's just not right fellas, Why is Telfa not helping you guy's with this big job.
a 4l60 shitting the bed? noooo couldn't be.... cue all the 4l60 fanboys "they're a good box, my mates uncles brothers best mates girlfriends son has a mate running 9's with 10 million hp an hasn't ever blown up, he trashes it an it loves it" 🙄...... 🤣🤣🤣
It leaked so much oil it should now be called .....

Nar need the Hoff to put a truck sized turbo in the spare wheel tub in the back 👌🏾
At least now you know the drain channels on the Trolvo are clear. Silver linings and all that.
"It'll never rust"...exactly what I was thinking...just remember to dibble some down the other side too...😁
You got a hearty laugh out of me when you said 4L60 things.
Scotty: oh auto fluid has gone into the sun roof on the volvo, itll never rust
Me: *stands on roof of 80 series with bottle of ATF*
love ya work boys 🤘
Hey Scotty cant wait for this Build Awesome love your Videos keep up the good work mate.

Don't worry, my mind went there as I said it
A VN Commodore by ANY other name! That high KM V6 would ok in the LJ Torana, maybe a 5spd behind!
So good Scott
Those welded bolts behind muffler are standard on those Scotty. dealt with too many to count lol

What trans is planned for the Toyota tuff Lexen? Power glide, turbo 350/400/700 🤷♂️
Look on the brighter side Scotty, the drain channels aren't blocked on the Trolvo lol
Scotty “ fix it and JUST SEND IT , great video mate 😁👍👍
Same thing happened to my old man in his VN wagon many moons ago. The converter seal basically melted
I'm feeling the pain ahead, it's a huge job, look forward to more eppys, not to many of those about nowdays..
Keep the toyota love going Scotty, 4agze for the barina, 2jz for turbo taxi

We'll have a good look at them but I think there are more difference than I thought
Hey Scotty, I have a 2002 VX Commodore that has done 310k kms. The car is due for a service, and I was wondering what your thoughts were about putting Diesel oil in instead. Would it be beneficial for a high kilometer engine, as I have heard... or not?
While not diesel oil specifically, a thicker oil can be better for higher mileage engines
Are you opening up the ring gaps on this motor for boost?
Wasn't really planning to because every time I pop rods and pistons out I find other things to fix
Isn't the min requirement for dc car must do less the 12 second quarters?
It wasn't competing at DCW, it was a SM crew vehicle
Looking good!
Classic line 'now I need to pee'
Scotty get the exhaust on market place you will get $50 for it 😂😂😂😂
That gearbox oil was pretty burned up
being derived from the VR they had a recall because of trans oil pump!!
You can play a drinking game with these Carnage vids. Every time Scotty sighs or groans, you have to take a shot. You'll be atleast half pissed by the end 😉
Scotty , would have been easier to just drop the K frame with the Engine and trans as a unit and lift the body shell up.
Makes it difficult to move car afterwards if we need to
Rustproofing the Trolvo while it sits there in pain, it had one more act of kindness before it passed away
Would be nice with a set of cams in it, they cost alot for these engines Scotty?
Why didn't you just drop the k frame, motor and box out the bottom?? You're swapping the k frame out anyways
More trouble than it's worth sometimes
Im no lexan expert but I think it has commodore front guards and indicators
You're right, you're no Lexcen expert
@@STREETMACHINETV i googled it after my comment , it was the previous model that the lexan had different guards and indicators
Loves a shifter moment.
The good old chunky Lexcen salad lol
If it’s a Buick wouldn’t it have been the t700? I thought 4l60 came with ecotecs.
VN/VP was TH700, VR was 4L60E
@@STREETMACHINETV makes sense I pulled a t700 out of my vp and assumed it was all Buicks.

funny 😂😂 if its an alloytec I agree. not Buicks or ecotecs 😂

Not an Ecotec
My kid broke 3 auto transmissions in his VS wagon, 5 speed manual sitting in shed to be swapped in.
Get yourself some saw dust Scotty for cleaning fluid up .
My beer 'o clock was 3 hours ago...
As someone who has owned cars with the 4L60E gearbox I can confirm the insides are made of gingerbread and was the weak link in most cases.
Only if built by people who don't care
