Broads ! Best episode of carnage I’ve seen. Broads one of the nicest guys you ever meet in the scene. Wheel stand ! That LOWE fab sticker on it is awesome . Wrapt. Top job.
A V8 in a LC or LJ is such a fantastic thing. Congratulations to anyone who has ever done this. Many years ago a mate had a 350 in his LJ. What an awesome car that was. Love your LC mate. Bringing a tear to the eye.
Mate had an LJ with tunnel ram 350 in it in Arrarat ,Victoria about 40 years ago.Sticking a 308 in the LC/LJ was common back when I was 17/18 years old.Other mate had 308 in LC that was killed in it,the LC had the LH/LX bolt on flares & looked tough as. Still wonder what ever happened to it. It was a weapon in a straight line!
Good to see Liam still has the vl I remember seeing a lot of it in my early teens when all I read was street commodores. I do believe somewhere in that magazine your torana popped up to. I think it was pink if all the beers haven't killed to many brain cells. Killa series broads looking forward to what's next for the mighty 5 oh.
I think it's good that they've moved with the times. Most of stuff they do on carnage is completely doable for the average guy budget wise. Not everyone can drop a lazy 150k on what is essentially a toy. For a few grand that Barina would put just as much of a smile on your face as anything. The best part is if you break it who cares.
that's a lot better result than I expected from a stock engine with a supercharger. My VH Commodore has just over 300rwhp from a NA 5L, 5 speed manual. Will be interesting to see how it compares being a heavier car and naturally aspirated power. I realistically only expect maybe a 12.7 which I'd be happy with. Great to see you guys doing things with the old Holden V8. I love these engines, but everything these days seems to be about the LS. No problems with the LS, but everyone has been there and done that with a LS. Refreshing to breathe some new life into these old girls (Y)
Thanks mate, we were really impressed too. If you assume a drivetrain loss of 20%, the engine is making 360hp at the crank. At 2950lbs on the Moroso power speed calculator, the car should be going 11.3@116. So obviously the MPW dyno is on the money and the car is working really well, but there's a tenth to be had by sharpening up my shifts. But the way that Harrop blower makes power is incredible. It's so responsive and so much fun to drive on the street!
@@andrewbroadley1851 I didn't get a good view of the dyno sheet, to see the power curve and torque. But I'm figuring from that sort of performance, it would be a nice steady power and torque curves which would also help a lot. The way it lifted the wheel off the line, it must be punching good numbers down low.
Always sucks to see a car getting pushed back out of the lane. you came back the next week and smashed it out of the park. from 14's NA to 11.5. Looking forward to seeing you crack 10's
I really enjoyed watching you there that night. I was on my bike but should have come over to say hi. Good work and great times for such 'modest' power.
I want my LC Torana back that I had at around 21. 186S Yella Terra Head, full race cam (3 down from the absolute top) triple SU's, and 2.5" from genie extractors out. Plus with some tight LSD Diff, steel crank, and 3 on the floor (tried 4 speed, hated it). Sorry it sounds so 80's (no fuel injection etc). But it was FUN and loud on every Saturday night. Full roll cage, but no sound proofing at all, so when inside it was all motor and tyre burning noise :)
Mate that is awesome congrats and you popped a wheel . You have to be chuffed with that. Just goes to show old cars are light and need stuff all wheel ponies to get a decent time.
Wrong T car to show. Not Torana...Trolvo or Taxi. 😝 But seriously, great work Andrew. A beautiful Torrie with the go to back up the looks. 💪👍♥️ I also just realized something. This week SM has gone completely old school and had no turbo cars shown. 😳😁
great dyno tune on a stock engine, killer idle, tuner knows his stuff LOL, my x girlfriends xu1 in the 70s ran 13.3s at 104mph with a 202 na, no much has changed in 35 odd years LOL
Great work mate, how about that 60 foot haha. May i ask what 225 tyre you run? I just ordered an M&H 26 x 8.5 15 radial to try and fit on my escort as im in need of a small drag tyre. Cheers
Hey Broads I think I was at wsid for the last run of this... was it the gmh torana Wednesday drag night when you were writing for just Holden mag? I was racing my torana for the first time that night!
Yeah mate that would have been it! I’ve done some country eighth mile racing since, but that’s about it. It’s been out of action for five years or so now.
1.46 sixty foot & 118mph on a 225 street radial, in a full weight Hz naturally aspirated, single Holley carb, stock 4" bore Block, stock Rods, through twin 2.5" exhaust to the rear bumper. No turbo, No blower, No nitrous.
This isn't be a smart Alec. It would be preference for any drag racer here, to have a mate who had a factory and some land to just tweak everything. Because otherwise, just making mistakes after spending so much time setting it all up, deflated hey. Damn nice Torana and nice to not see an LS. Getting over it, and I had a VE years back with 441rwhp. Nice to see a 304, again. Cheers..
Pete Cotter Harrop offer the 2300 and the bigger 2650 to suit Holden V8. Not sure if they could do you a kit with the 1900, but I reckon that would be ample for a stock 5L like this. That being said, I’d like to chase more power with a 355 down the track, so I think a 2300 was the right choice for me.
HI ALL WOW yup the fight is real well done man its a beast i think you can do with 300hp 10s it should be good for 125-130 mph out the back maybe a power-glide im all for the manual its all about breathing ????? lol cant wait to see ya times drop thx and we coming to summer-nats see ya there
APS Allpartsolutions completely stock. I bought it on Facebook marketplace for $500. We’ve had the sump, rocker covers and obviously intake off it, and it’s all stock.
Yeah I’m almost 120. Torana is heavy for its size. 1013kg standard, but by the time you add the V8, 4L60 trans, bigger diff and chassis kit it’s basically the same weight as my mate’s VK V8 street car.
GRPABT1 you could probably build an aspo engine that’d run the same times for similar money, but I know what I’d rather. Lots more room for further development this way too.
WTF, call its only 2,455 pounds, not 3,000 pounds, when it got weighed, it was 1.227.5 KG which is just over 2,455 pounds not 3,000 pounds, even that white LTD almost got ya and that thing is almost 4 TONS ? Still a holden 5lt with a harrop supercharger on a sock engine, that engine will not last, the first thing with be the rocker arms and lifters and maybe the lifter rods and then the rings will go, as its not a forced induction compression engine, but still its would be good to see the upload of when you put the stock engine in it? All i will say is keep it up and good luck ?
1227kg plus me at 120kg is 1347kg, or 2970lbs. LTD must be making some grunt to be running 11s at four tons 😉 I’m not concerned about engine longevity at this level. The tune is very conservative and it has bugger all timing in it. The engine seems happy and there’s not a drop of oil in the catch can. Sure, we might break it if and when we take things further. All in the name of science.
Lol srsly my cousins old xu1 did mid 10s down the q with a 202 triple webber's fully worked bottom end extractor and exhaust would've been better off in a 6 mate in that car
This dude is a natural talk over guy, well done mate.
Broads ! Best episode of carnage I’ve seen. Broads one of the nicest guys you ever meet in the scene. Wheel stand ! That LOWE fab sticker on it is awesome . Wrapt. Top job.
Thanks heaps, mate. We were pretty stoked to run those numbers.

Still wonder what ever happened to it.
It was a weapon in a straight line!
Nice to see a Torana, had several LJ's in the past. And all Holden too.
To be honest, the dyno result had me a a little disappointed, but boy dod it exceed my expectations on the strip. Can't wait to see what happens next!
Yep, we expected that. A lot of people have gotten used to big horsepower but 300rwhp can still be fun
That's one beautiful LC!!!
beautiful little green machine i love this car
Its ripping now mate!
Totally wasn't expecting that 1.5 60 . Mate, what an impressive build, congratulations buddy you deserve it
Thanks heaps mate. I wasn’t expecting it either, for the record 😂
Good to see Liam still has the vl I remember seeing a lot of it in my early teens when all I read was street commodores. I do believe somewhere in that magazine your torana popped up to. I think it was pink if all the beers haven't killed to many brain cells. Killa series broads looking forward to what's next for the mighty 5 oh.
The Seagull mod days !! 💪🏽💪🏽
Awesome...Big fan of the 304...Sweet LC.
Looking forward to the progress on this little beast
Nice series. Reflects the magazine more than busted barinas do 👍🏻
And yet the busted Barina gets more views. Go figure
I think it's good that they've moved with the times. Most of stuff they do on carnage is completely doable for the average guy budget wise.
Not everyone can drop a lazy 150k on what is essentially a toy. For a few grand that Barina would put just as much of a smile on your face as anything. The best part is if you break it who cares.
Great effort on a baby 225 as well
Proof that u don’t need a pill press and 456 million dollars to run respectable numbers and just plain old have fun!
This comment deserves more likes.

Lifted a damn wheel bro!!!!
All Aussie v8 with a little boost👌, fantastic job.. was waiting for a cart wheel though👍
Thanks mate. Yeah I probably shouldn't have said that. I'm not built for cartwheels ;)
@@andrewbroadley1851 you owe us a cart wheel mate
Better have an ambulance on standby!
@@andrewbroadley1851 yeah we feel 18 till we do 18 y.o shit and realise we ain't 18 any more
I really enjoyed watching you there that night. I was on my bike but should have come over to say hi. Good work and great times for such 'modest' power.
Tepid Tuna thanks mate! Always up for a chat.
I felt so bad for this dude when he had his idle problem but I love a happy ending
What a weapon!! Congratulations man!
Well done boys
Look forward for more updates on this LC Torana
I want my LC Torana back that I had at around 21.
186S Yella Terra Head, full race cam (3 down from the absolute top) triple SU's, and 2.5" from genie extractors out.
Plus with some tight LSD Diff, steel crank, and 3 on the floor (tried 4 speed, hated it).

This thing never seen the light of day again, for us that is.
The guys are doing some upgrades to it now. You'll see it again soon.
Alot quicker than i expected, nice work!
just worked out were I have heard your voice on a street Commodore DVD back in the day
Good job mate I was like this guy is going to go 12 but you went more good job keep up the good work
11.4 with 225kw that is unreal
What a great upload. Cheers
I miss my "bronze" 138 red three on the tree LC, had some of the best times in the front and back seats.
That is the most Australian accent i have ever heard
That is the most beautiful thing anyone has ever said to me...
Sounds normal to me, but i am a Aussie
That's impressive
Owned a couple 304s cool video
Very cool ep. guys... Love the Torry!!!
Yea that’s heaps cool mate. Love this type of vids that street machine do
Outstanding!
❤️
BEAST!!!!
Great work Mr. Quirk!!
Well done 👍🏼, using them ponies really well....on the money ✅
Mate that is awesome congrats and you popped a wheel . You have to be chuffed with that. Just goes to show old cars are light and need stuff all wheel ponies to get a decent time.
Wrong T car to show. Not Torana...Trolvo or Taxi. 😝
But seriously, great work Andrew. A beautiful Torrie with the go to back up the looks. 💪👍♥️
I also just realized something. This week SM has gone completely old school and had no turbo cars shown. 😳😁
Great job
That's one quick $500 beast lol 👍
Just because a nice car got the carnage touch doesnt make it an episode however this 1 kept me watching
Nice to see Liam's kept the vl since his street commodores apprenticeship days!
That 5.0 sounds good!
Wiiiiickkkked! Awesome car
Great vid as always guys :)
Good run. 225 tyres what the. 👍👍👌
great dyno tune on a stock engine, killer idle, tuner knows his stuff LOL, my x girlfriends xu1 in the 70s ran 13.3s at 104mph with a 202 na, no much has changed in 35 odd years LOL
I really like the engine bay, well done guys !!
Who knew you could use a mountain biking helmet at the drags?
Very informative.
Great results! Standard cam shaft?
Thanks mate. Yep, the whole motor is standard. Cam and springs will probably be the next step.
great work boys.
Little bit more ring gap and 150 shot. See if it holds together, if it does. 10 second Torry.
Well done mate
Nice car
Amazing!!
Great work mate, how about that 60 foot haha. May i ask what 225 tyre you run? I just ordered an M&H 26 x 8.5 15 radial to try and fit on my escort as im in need of a small drag tyre. Cheers
matski89 thanks mate. It’s a Mickey Thompson ET Street R.
Hey Broads I think I was at wsid for the last run of this... was it the gmh torana Wednesday drag night when you were writing for just Holden mag? I was racing my torana for the first time that night!
Yeah mate that would have been it! I’ve done some country eighth mile racing since, but that’s about it. It’s been out of action for five years or so now.
Nice looking Green Banana ⁉️👍👍
Mate that's a beautiful car👍👍👍
1.46 sixty foot & 118mph on a 225 street radial, in a full weight Hz naturally aspirated, single Holley carb, stock 4" bore Block, stock Rods, through twin 2.5" exhaust to the rear bumper. No turbo, No blower, No nitrous.
Great car , and guys watched many times, what gear set did you run that night ? 💪🏁
This isn't be a smart Alec. It would be preference for any drag racer here, to have a mate who had a factory and some land to just tweak everything. Because otherwise, just making mistakes after spending so much time setting it all up, deflated hey.
Damn nice Torana and nice to not see an LS. Getting over it, and I had a VE years back with 441rwhp. Nice to see a 304, again.
Cheers..
Cool car pity superchargers are so expensive 👍
Oooof that hood cut.
I’ve just channeled Nan to see if she approves. She loved old school.
Nice vid, why not a 1900 blower?
Pete Cotter Harrop offer the 2300 and the bigger 2650 to suit Holden V8. Not sure if they could do you a kit with the 1900, but I reckon that would be ample for a stock 5L like this. That being said, I’d like to chase more power with a 355 down the track, so I think a 2300 was the right choice for me.
raised rear hood would help with airflow threw the bay
With a small cam ported heads and a trans brake and maybe a little bit of suspension dialled in you'll have a consistent 10 second car
Not sure it needs a transbrake with the instant throttle response but yeah a cam and springs and maybe a diff ratio change will put in into the tens
Need more screen time for the VL 😍
What a little weapon!! What diff are you running mate?
Thanks mate! It’s a shortened VL Borg Warner.
Andrew Broadley great, was considering a borg Warner with 31 splines for the hq. Cheers
Jo Jo Mine’s been great, mate. Been in the car for years. It’s just a 28-spline LSD with 3.9:1 gears.
HI ALL WOW
yup the fight is real well done man its a beast i think you can do with 300hp 10s it should be good for 125-130 mph out the back maybe a power-glide im all for the manual its all about breathing ????? lol cant wait to see ya times drop thx and we coming to summer-nats see ya there
Putting a glide in it will make in not very enjoyable for street driving
What part of measure twice cut once don’t you understand🤦🏻♂️
Getting there...
Would it fit under a vs bonnet ?
Imagine being able to fine a V8 for $500 now
Who saw Scotty on the camera?
Have a lc torana two door 383chevy motor roller cam dart heads twin carbs tunnel ram 520 horsepower
sooooo A Windsor Ford with the valve covers upside down??
What does that mean in english?
Are you running a 9inch?? What gears are you running?
Paul North Borg Warner, mate. 3.9s, but they’re probably too short for a 26in tyre. It’s spending a fair bit of the pass in overdrive (4L60 trans).
Is the engine totally stock?
APS Allpartsolutions completely stock. I bought it on Facebook marketplace for $500. We’ve had the sump, rocker covers and obviously intake off it, and it’s all stock.
Was/is there plans for e85
Possibly mate. Valve springs and probably a cam first.
👌👍
yehryt have a go at that vl
How is this carnage? it's far too nice
What size tyre under it?
225/50/15 Drag Radial
I was going to say. Don’t put a bonnet scoop on it. Bonnet scoops ruin these cars. Good to see you didn’t do that
Great car,think the blower is a bit lazy
It can make alot more power but the engine wouldn't be able to handle it. With a stronger bottom end it'll go alot quicker
Yep! Same blower has made over 800hp on pump fuel on a built 355.
Was the 1227kg with the driver?
Without
And I’m a fairly heavy chap 😂
130kg? Lol. I'm amazed I have a vb commodore track car with me (105kgs) and fuel its 1315kgs
Yeah I’m almost 120. Torana is heavy for its size. 1013kg standard, but by the time you add the V8, 4L60 trans, bigger diff and chassis kit it’s basically the same weight as my mate’s VK V8 street car.
$10K blower on a $500 engine, such a bargain...
GRPABT1 you could probably build an aspo engine that’d run the same times for similar money, but I know what I’d rather. Lots more room for further development this way too.
WTF, call its only 2,455 pounds, not 3,000 pounds, when it got weighed, it was 1.227.5 KG which is just over 2,455 pounds not 3,000 pounds, even that white LTD almost got ya and that thing is almost 4 TONS ?

All i will say is keep it up and good luck ?
Where did you go to school? 2.2lbs per kilo equals 2700lbs before you add Andrew and his 6foot 5in. So somewhere north of 2900lbs
1227kg plus me at 120kg is 1347kg, or 2970lbs. LTD must be making some grunt to be running 11s at four tons 😉 I’m not concerned about engine longevity at this level. The tune is very conservative and it has bugger all timing in it. The engine seems happy and there’s not a drop of oil in the catch can. Sure, we might break it if and when we take things further. All in the name of science.
Why is it measured in MPH. In Australia? This I facked.
Should be at least 380 "US" rwhp to run 11.4/116 even with 2700 lbs car. :D
What a fugly looking interior!
Amazing what a bit of forced induction can do. Won't be long before you are in the 10s.
Paint the bonnet yellow Aussie colours green and yellow .
Surely there has to be a lot more in it than 225kw. My ej20 forester with bolt ons gets 190kw at all 4.
Beautiful car though and sounds amazing. Mid 11s is fucking fast.
Lol srsly my cousins old xu1 did mid 10s down the q with a 202 triple webber's fully worked bottom end extractor and exhaust would've been better off in a 6 mate in that car
Its a standard 304 with a blower, it's doing okay.
