"Power steering it has, factory pump we are using." Turbo Yoda living up to name.
indeed stykyun
Haha, beat me to it!
*Weld the diff you can, to the housing you must*
up to name living?
Holden with a working handbrake... What a time to be alive.
yeah, who would have thought that all you need to do is change the complete rear axle
Just add Ford.
lol
His right! My old HK used to hold well if it was pointing down a hill but up a hill, you had to really give it a pull!
VT onwards had em sorted, only took them around 50 years to fix.
Thanks for the shoutout, and yes how good does it sound. Definitely loud and obnoxious exactly as we wanted !!
Car looks killer and the install is top notch.
@@southjerseysound7340 they do great work! 👍
@@OvertakingLane that they do and I love his no BS approach to things that work over bling. Truthfully Al doesn't give himself enough credit sometimes. One question is he didn't mention if you're running a flexfuel sensor? Or just straight E85.
congrats on the build Dave and Sally cant wait to see it in the flesh!
@@southjerseysound7340 running straight E85 heaps available where I live there us no real benefit running it with this set up but I just love the smell of it
Nooooo! Don't diss the mighty AU! The internet will cry!
Being honest I probably only REALLY understand about 30% of what Al is talking about but I just find it all so soothing and almost hypnotic. I heart you Turbo Yoda.
All hail his whooshski-ness
Alan himself said it's never too late for learning about new stuff.
Of course you won't learn through osmosis, but as enthusiast in auto mechanics and electricity, i have to say that Alan is very good at explaining stuff. If you don't get it at first, take a deep breath, a sip of lemon squash and rewind the video to the right point -- and try again. The most important thing in the learning process is taking your time. Every person has his/her own pace, and nobody should be ashamed of it.
Cheers, mate!
Gotta love Al, he doesn’t give a shit about bogans feelings😂🤘🏻
He does... that's why he explains the details.... Al's an awesome bloke...that way... he should be a lot darker though.. cos' people are c#@nts... lol
@@steveblackbird5174 Currants?
Re-watching Al on his trip around a car is priceless, communicative, educational and entertaining.
I keep re-watching because somewhere, sometime Al dropped a nugget that I needed to remember but forgot to
I reckon we'd all qualify for our mechanic trade certificate just by watching Al's videos... learn so much more from him than a classroom and a deadbeat mechanic lol...
That thing is a beast. I'm so glad that a few of the old kinga are getting the love they deserve. An Aussie classic.
Good to see daves keepin her old skool interior etc..justice done nicely boyz..well done
Great stuff about the LS conversion learning curve, lots of great tips and experience to draw from for the rest of us.
Another quality production from the Skid Factory... keep it up lads 👌👍
What a sound. You want to listen it again and again. Guys thank you for this content because in Greece it's nearly impossible to listen something like that. Keep up the good work
Holyshit I was watching this video in my car burning up sometime before an appointment and I had it plugged into my car stereo system and it has the Bose surround sound stuff in it. When that car started up it was like it was right in front of me. It sounded beautiful.
.... Bose headphones... my kidneys felt it..... Absolutely Glorious!!!!!
Next week on skid factory turbo yoda catching these hands while i defend the honour of the mighty au falcon
I bought one of those shirts from Dave and Tyler. Thanks for the referral to those great guys. Great channel
I google searched AU Falcon because I had never seen one... I wish i didn't.
Not the coolest falcon, definitely more of a fleet car.
UGLY........but good......
I know what you mean. Once you've seen one, you realise that nothing else can compare. The mighty AU.
Can't spell AUstralia without AU. It literally is the pinnacle of OZ motoring.
The AU is the toughest most beautiful car ever built in Australia.
One of the best things is your resourcefulness utilising parts out there that work well from other vehicles, and this is the first vid from you guys I've stumbled across . Bloody good
you guys hit it out of the park every time , your philosophy on building cars is inspiring.
Holy moly that car is so clean!!!! Great work as always al, totally agree, the valve covers really sell it, that, plus a filter, probably wont even notice the fuel rails.
sounds MAD
HJ prem’s have always been a favourite of mine, classic tough aussie sedan, these are deffinetly worth the modern goodies that everyone’s throws at them!
Love your work Al and woody, your explanation of things is so simple to simpletons like me, glad to see you didn't waste horsepower on a 9" inch. You gave the customer just what they need, and made it easy for anybody to work on, or do themselves. There is only one Yoda and his name is Al.
Thanks guys !
Love it. Watched it 3 times already. I own a Hj sedan myself.
New Skid vid...gonna be a good day.
That's an excellent sounding V8. Woody, keep the little Daihatsu! The grin you had on the track doesn't lie.
Another great video. Love the bit at the end. You guys are legends
So clean, everything is immaculate and tidy! Very nice. 👍🏻
Man, the LS swap is just so good. Those exhausts are also very well done.
Ive got a 70 ht ute and a 80 hz ute projects..thanks for the insight, hints and tips..bloody good job son
Great job mate, your spot on with that one! Sounds and looks awesome, well done 👍.
Yet another bucket list car from my childhood 😍
Thanks for your time and videos 👍🤙🇦🇺
Another amazing video guys! Love your work
That's a gorgeous car. I love the headlights and the tail lights. Too bad we didn't get this in the states.
23:24 Bloody air compressor, Al face says it all, always the way when you want quiet time
PS that 'J' does sound very very nice
Yall gotta get some lights for when youre doing the under-car shots. Beauty of a ride though!
Nothin like a good old Holden with modern running gear...Good job fellas.
Sweet recap Al and Woody!
Awesome footage once again , cheers 🍻
Heart warming...ahhh old mixed with newer. You are winning. :-)
I like the shifter. That is how I did my Tonner, but I modified the T bar handle to screw in to the quick silver bar to look even more stock. Love how you can slam though the gear with it.
Well done mate!
Perfect. EXACTLY the car I need.
Love the sound of that engine go the Kingsy!!!!!!
Another mint episode guys 🤘🏻
Awesome video and excellent content I love the sound of a v8
well done Al, nice work man
Right at the end when Turbo Yoda moves his eyebrows perfectly in sync with the birds chirps 🤣
Mates are going from lemon squishes to orange crushers. 🤣 love what you guys do and hope to some day hang out with you guys for an afternoon
Great colour, beautiful build!
No, a burn out isn't needed...Instead, I'll go with a Mad Max quote: "When can we go for a ride?" LOL A very awesome build with the perfect sound - very sure Dave and Tyler will have many-many miles of fun in it.
Spot on.
I’ve been researching my build approach to a HQ Belmont panno for 3 years now
This has been the most informative info I’ve yet seen. Thanks for sharing, I’ve watched twice in one day, I haven’t done that since Wayne’s World!
I note on some of your other vids you list suppliers, are you going to do that for this build.
Keep on fellas.
Absolutely beautiful car and sounds amazing. One day when my rich uncle gets out of the poor house I'll get to visit Australia. I just don't know if I'd ever want to return to the US though.
Great work Al
Love it. That is sweeeeet!
Nice old taxi. Really dig the colour 👍🏻👍🏻🙃🙃
Al, you broke my heart today. All falcons are beAUtiful.
Love the orange!
That does sound awesome!
I know the brakes where never that good, but if you replace all the rubber bushings with new poly ones and put new springs and shocks on these it's amazing how well these things handled stock. And also what made a huge difference on my 76 torana was changing the two ball bearings in the steering column, which is often overlooked
Cool build, sounds nice.
love the kingas.. my old hz ute was the same eye burning shade 👍
Al always makes the e breaks work
New parts that just fits!? What kind of witchcraft is this?
That's a great looking build, for sure. Nicely done
If you don't buy from eBay with "sorted by price" most parts fits.
@@alexstromberg7696 Heh, very true. eBay Chinesium is cheap for a reason.
Love ya work Al
Such a good looking car.
Nice sounding vehicle. Good four-door family car to snag the groceries in.
Ute & a manual 30'- every time!
Longer wheel base hits that sweet spot (Ackerman Ratio?) for stepping them out of line on corner entry like a 2-stroke dirt-squirter...
Feedback through HX/Z geometry & the 10to1 steering take a LOT of the understeering "float'n boat 'n' hope" out of the equation! :v ;)
Now we've had a peak at this HJ, Im even more excited/curtous about what is to come with the engine project...
Thank you again
good Lord that thing makes ALL the right noises!
The video sound is pretty good, beyond my imagination

Love the review vids
Does sound amazing !!!!!!!
So good boys 👌
Very nice build
Great video about a great car
That sounds tremendous!
Was about to do a turbo Barra swap in my GQ Patrol.
I had a patrol with a 383 Chev and really miss the power AND sound.
It has an RB30 in it at the moment and I was going to turbo that as well. I am pretty sure a lumpy LS1 is going to be making it's way into the engine bay now. THANKS!
..........KINDA.
Looks tidy as :) nice build
The cam sounds good
What a pearler of a car!
I'd love to see how you did that shifter setup ,
As I'm sick of looking at the open hole
very cool video sounds good
We have all just watched another awesome Skid factory build- Probably isn’t one of us that isn’t a little bogan 😂 Beautiful car by the way
Fuark sounds epic.
Beautiful (for a GM product) .. Hate all the automatic transmission stuff though .. Row your own guys! Love the show, keep up all the good stuff's ..
So lumpy
Keep up the ls1 vids, only motor within my price range, and future replacement with manual trans in my 86 trans am
I love LS's but you'd be amazed at what you can find for SBC's these days on the cheap. I just grabbed a new Dart Iron Eagle block, Dart 11degree little chief heads and a few other parts to build a 450ci small block for $3750. He got it for a build years ago and now the car is finished he's going with a Texas Speed 427 LS3 instead of a carbed big SBC. He was asking a LOT more but nobody wanted it for MONTHS. I told him what I could afford and if he needed to sell it fast to call thinking he'd never go for it. But 3 months later he told me to come get it ASAP. The whole time we're loading it he's saying I hate to do it but I want fuel injection and it was like he didn't realize you can put EFI on anything. I just ordered new custom pistons and a cam for boost and started building a custom intake. But it should be in my S10 by the end of next month with my current turbo's pushing close to 2k hp. Granted it's not junkyard cheap but I've seen good SBC heads like AFR heads go for $250-300 and so on because of guys going LS. So there's deals to be had.
That shifter 👌
Uploading vids nice and late for us, lemon squash time then 😁
Late to the party but better late than never. No lemon squash but I have some grapes that got squashed some time ago.
sounds mint
One of my favourite Aussie slang words is "bogan".
Good stuff guys. Love seeing a KTM orange car.... LOL
Watching my favorite boys...thinking..old Yoda and Woody would approve of my LS swapped Regal....then he gets to the non working handbrake scenario....yaaaaa..old dad heading back out to the shed to get the damn parking brake issue sorted out.
just let it go. GOLD
No shed skids? Could've sworn I was a paid patron of "the skid factory" sort him out woody
Nice car, Kingswood use to be the name of a Chevrolet estate wagon in the early 70's, the front end on your car was used on the 1971-73 Chevrolet Caprice big boat cruisers and they all mostly had 350 cubic inch,5.7 litre V8's and 4 barrell carbs on them, and the tail lights look like a 70's Buick tail lights, Gm/Holden always used whatever they had in the parts bin right down to Cadillac power window and door lock switches in chevy and Buicks, Pontiac always got their own style, nice car and sounds sick, the Police cars here in Canada/US always had dual straight through exhaust and sounded so good as good as Camaros and Firebirds
Can't aggree more on the aftermarket rocker covers, my Buick V6 in a VR had these ebay special covers, quite expensive too but didn't take the stock rubber perfect fit gaskets nor used the stock self adjusting bolt/crush tube mount bolts, it leaks like crazy, the cork gasket went rotten and half the bolts vibrated out ahah. Bought stock ones from a wrecker and newmont crush bolts and it's perfect hahaha
Tidy work Yoda, your under bonnet and wirey stuff is awesome and practical, but the cast cantered diff housing? Very neat and sounds nice n tuff too.
