"If you were making 1000hp you'd be throwing shit everywhere, too." "Needs a catch can. My car throws 2L in the tin every pass." Plenty of great quotes this week boys haha nice work.

Respect for Dave and the Skid Factory. I understand Dave, I have learned everything by myself on my bikes but I would never touch an engine. He is a brave man.

[@StreetDreamzTT]

Martin Kadlec ikr. I made so many mistakes learning about cars 🤣 I’m not brave enough to go inside of the engine yet tho. Dave ftw

[@roadracer42]

Keep em coming boys, needing plenty to watch in NZ during lockdown 👍😃

[@iswinkels]

Try using the Haltech's PWM thermo fan driver mode and a solid state relay so you can soft start the SPAL fan. I did this for well over 2 years and had no issues with fuses.

[@theskidfactory]

Yes that is a good option also.

Is it possible to put a subaru ez36 h6 fit in a subaru impreza 2008 and would the 4wd system still work?

[@haha_you_dead]

kin hell Woody last week it was looking like Freddie Mercury this week Charles Bronson 😂🤣🤷🏻‍♂️ come on pick one already 😂🤣😂🤣😂

[@nobikeman]

How to tune rear suspension 1. Get a beefy swaybar, the heavier the better. 2. Use the adjustable upper bars to tune rear corner weights - scales are needed - eg: If it turns left adjust length of 1 bar to add 25kg to the left rear tyre, keep adjusting until it leaves straight. (suspension mounts may need seefing up too) 3. Get adjustable shocks all around.

[@ro63rto]

Love the anti-possum bolts in the exhaust pipe.

Great Results. It's awesome to see your project come across the finish line without blowing parts on the ground. Great job as usual fella's. Really looking forward to seeing this beast on the track. He's gonna have his hands full but it's gonna be a blast. Nothing but smiles with a build like this.

That thing definitely had some squat and lean going on!

[@Eric_412]

awesome video guys.. am only new to this channel and i find it very informative with zero bullshit. i like how Al talks to the camera and not at it. it’s good how they take us punters along for the ride. can someone tell me what Al’s background is as he seems an absolute wiz on the tools

[@michaelrouw2117]

Dave Earlier videos will give you plenty of background.

[@Eric_412]

Michael Rouw cheers mate , appreciate it. I love understanding how things work but more so drag along with the skill and knowledge of spanned men that make it all happen, that why I find this to be an awesome channel,. Just a couple of guys in a garage building horsepower ..

Yeah he could go hit the clubs again if they were open

[@Koziolrh]

Yet somehow 40 years older with the stash

[@JEREMY83597]

The VK is my absolute favorite car! I sat here watching with the biggest smile, one day ill have a VK that makes me moist. Cheers boys

[@davidfraser6346]

Betty Bird 😝 @ moist.

[@andersjjensen]

If it makes you moist you're going to need a catch can or the boost rag gets wet. Now, going commando and omitting the boost rag is certainly also an option, but that puts proper traction at risk.

[@bryanmills1547]

Fuckin top job Al, that’s some tough industrial sounding grunt. What a tank!! Full respect mate. Never have I heard something as unique as that. Keep building the V8’s please mate.

This vs Benny’s Cresta in the 1/4?

[@martinkadlec6070]

Cresta would annihilate it. Traction issues are main reason. But Dave may create some insane rear end in his shed in a year and surprise everybody. Thumbs up for Dave!

[@gordowg1wg145]

Dave's handle on the old forum we all met each other through was BoganDave.

[@gordowg1wg145]

@@theskidfactory That's even better, a "bogan" car in several senses, not just a description of it's nature!

[@Isaac_Norman]

A good bit of that torque movement of the body could be managed by extending the roll cage into the engine compartment. That could provide a lot of stabilization down the track.

[@StreetDreamzTT]

Congrats guys. Hope dave is happy. I like him, not the greatest at building cars, does it anyway. That’s how you learn yo.

[@craigdavies69]

Kevin the Weapon just lurking in the carpark haha. Ole Leroy runs a cable pump first time i had seen one, awesome bit of gear. Love the VK the extra holes do add character, great job as usual boys.

[@OriginalMomo]

“Everyone’s happy because it’s behaving itself “.... words of wisdom from Turbo Yoda 😂😂😂

[@WickedTRX]

I would say it needs a beefy anti sway bar on the rear! Finnegan did that...

[@EnkeiTenjin]

What would a fat sway bar do on its own on a dedicated drag car? Almost nothing beneficial.

[@dragpix]

​@@EnkeiTenjin anti roll bar does wonders for body/diff movement on a drag car, literally every drag car making more than 500hp should be using one. The cars body will want to roll to the right whilst the diff is planted, anti roll bar setup counters it. you don't want to be planting more traction to one wheel due to weight shifting in the rear as the car will become unpredictable when launching, and could be dangrous.

[@brandonloll4262]

well done mates

Great show lads, DAVE will need an anti roll bar for the rear, double adjustable shocks, and strong tubular arms. Adjustable shocks for the front as well so he doesn't do massive wheel stands and destroy the front end of his VK.

[@davidfraser6346]

speedking72 it’s got Vyking double adjustable shocks and a single airbag in the right rear on the way. Might get an ARB roll bar later if it needs it.

You absolutely have to put some kind of rear clip in those vk,s I was once traveling behind the mangano,s bros yellow vk in cairns when they hit it and the entire ass with 9inch tore out onto the road it was like watching American graffiti and that thing only had a 355 stroker.

[@theskidfactory]

The cage is tied to the upper control arms, they are what tears free. It will certainly need an ARB but it's getting some viiking shocks first.

[@craigjones9244]

@@theskidfactory I think it's time for old mate to cough for a rear clip I would love to see you boys do some serious surgery. 4 link? Me thinks.😁

[@pablojones5613]

To get the car to leave right, it needs an anti-roll bar and some better coil overs to control suspension movement.
