Holden 355ci V8 | Harrop Supercharger Kit

The all Australian Holden V8 was produced by GMH from 1969 to 1999 and can now be boosted with our Australian made Harrop TVS2300 Supercharger Kit for the ultimate in Aussie Muscle. Stroked with our legendary 355ci crankshaft we worked with Sam's Performance to put together an engine combination built for boost for engine dyno testing with impressive results.

Nice combo, 800hp Holden 355 V8 supercharged sound 🤩

[@floyn1]

The 304 and its stroked derivatives are just about the best sounding V8 of all. Larry Perkins V8 Supercar is a prime example. Sick noise.

[@ADayInTheLifeOfJames]

100%

[@donscheeres6145]

Very cool, good to see theres still development going into the old girls. Good effort for a cast crank.....

[@sndrd4430]

From a turbo Barra owner, that's pretty sweet!

[@freesexyew]

355 the world!!

[@HEKTIC458]

Thats huge power for a 304 based motor!

[@toyvt8]

Very very impressed, definitely got me thinking for the next combo for the VT

[@mathewhrestak2215]

That Is verry impressive! Especially after seeing the vf gts u guys done, lsa 416ci stroker forged internals running the tvs2650 supercharger making 600kw at the wheels and the sound of a 355 shits all over the sound of any LS motor

[@murrijuana2842]

The sound of an engine won't win you any races. Waste of money.

[@mathewhrestak2215]

@@murrijuana2842 as I mentioned below there is a vr ute with a 355 and a centrifugal charger running consistent 9's which would certainly win races and still sound tough.

[@jimclarke1108]

Holden, the good old days))

[@AlsAllAussieAdventures]

600kw from the humble 355.. would make an awesome street setup, great results!

[@1hpH6turboSti]

It would if it were reliable

[@ZoomStranger]

@@1hpH6turboSti so is there a substance to this statement?

[@ntsmith715]

I think the Holden motor sounds better than the chev and is matching it down the strip

[@murrijuana2842]

Not even close.

nice build

[@TheCuttz1984]

I can't believe the figures I just seen from the old holden. Such a good effort fellas. 1uz kits next?

[@chadlantry8570]

Nice design with the intake at front of the engine. Keep up the good work long live holden v8 and they have better exhaust note over ls.

[@jimclarke1108]

WOW ,The old 308, they like to rev

Crazy HP

[@rhysjamison9270]

[@fullnoyz7670]

This setup would make a lot of holden men not turn to the lsa!

[@torqueconverter5594]

Peter Noy i hope so

[@FredmChoice]

Err its Great but LS's are still a cheaper alternative

[@3800TURBO]

You can buy a complete LSA crate for the price of this blower kit alone. You can double the cost of the holden job once you build an engine. You'd have to be a pureist to do it.

[@Chris-od1jp]

@@3800TURBO The supercharger kit is $10,900, LSA crate engine is more than double that

[@Mr_armageddon]

@@Chris-od1jp I priced only the parts they specifically mentioned in this and it was over $20K, not including the block, fuel system, exhaust or any accessories. Also not including freight for any of the parts. Easily 25-30K if you get a cheap block. A crate LSA $22K.

[@TBONEMALONE..]

Love it

THATS INSANE

[@ZoomStranger]

eating your own lips is insane. This is just about a Holden engine getting a blower

[@TheWretchedWorld]

606kw on 98 is an impressive feat

[@glennponting4120]

Very impressive , there’s life in the old girl yet

[@derekstewart8175]

it's like a mix of different american V8's strange, I'd like to build one! Great job adapting whipple blowers to old school v8's!

[@derekstewart8175]

HarropTV I see so its not a whipple type? Is it like a Eaton? Or totally different? 813hp is really good ! Your parts are seriously coveted here in the usa, i got to play with a C6Z 440cid with your IR intake, extremely nice quality!

[@derekstewart8175]

HarropTV Very nice, obviously it's very effeciant, what is the largest blower you guys produce?

[@mathewhrestak2215]

Lol "Manafacture" .. Eaton Manafacture the supercharger the only thing manafactured in melbourne is the front snout/intake and wack harrop on it

[@mickdejager3910]

Ok I'm impressed, I'm in the middle of restoring a VQ Stato 5LTR don't think my budget can afford that far lol 400hp will have to do 😃

[@jakepegler]

Just curios, what would the price tag be on the motor? Expecting it would be a shit ton.

[@blairo15]

Sounds great guys. One thing... Is there a reason you're running the coolant reverse flow on the dyno?

[@donscheeres6145]

What ignition set up are you using? What ecu?

[@bentheguru4986]

Why on earch have you got an electrical water pump trying to push the flow the wrong way?

[@puppupzera6435]

Just a little bit of loyalty to the old Holden donk

[@dannyboy632]

Seen that call latter just at lawer

[@bigdavedownunder]

So in a real world application this would need an intercooler kit bigger injectors and throttle body to make these numbers? Or can I just bolt this on with the 90mm throttle body put say 60lb injectors fuel pump in it and make 700fwhp? On a similar engine spec

[@jahnperez5060]

I had a mate with a commodore stock car with a 304 NA. Was tough to get 450hp at the crank, was a long time ago but damn, these guys know their stuff

[@walkinshawkiwi]

Does it still have a cast crank and two bolt mains

[@crouchingwombathiddenquoll5641]

Would that be suitable for towing a caravan ?

[@gv8483]

That's awesome for a stock block designed in the 60s

[@mareksumguy1887]

Not stock... has aftermarket billet steel 4 bolt mains... and studs.

What happened to the motor did you put it into something ? i got a nice VN here that could use an upgrade from a stock 304 xD

[@bigalswagon7273]

it look exactly like the 355 from the white VR featured on a marks workshop video that made 441kw at the wheels

[@strider5119]

Pretty cool to see. These engines are slow as shit, but they've always had the best sound

[@aussiebriza6170]

Would Love to know the numbers on e85? I'm so keen on doing this to my 355 might be time to give her a birthday present upgrade 😂🎉🎉🎉

[@pedrogonzalez-jx6zk]

How much boost?

[@claytonlang1463]

Just wondering why you said you were pushing the friendship with the crank? Would you recommend something else?

[@mattblack9344]

Pretty sure come racing make stainless and nodular iron cranks

[@mattblack9344]

@ChrisHallett83 I heard they sell their parts, but don't build the engines any more. Maybe the people that bought the machine shop, still make the parts for them.

[@100reality2]

Can I please have one for my Vn wagon.thanks

Hey there im currently drifting my vn 5.0 in newzealand and want to keep it 5.0 what would a setup like this cost with a solid valvetrain setup as drifting can be harsh on the rev range/strain cheers
