Today on The Skid Factory We're kicking off a new build series starting with this 1997 Holden 304 V8 Engine.
The Engine was purchased off Facebook and without knowing the history, Al strips it down to assess the block and cylinder bores for wear.

[@joshradelaide943]

What an absolute weapon 💪

[@polishdiapersale]

One trick is to tell 'em stories that don't go anywhere - like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. Give me five bees for a quarter, you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah: the important thing was I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn't have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...

Was 5044, went to 4987cc. This is the modern equivalent of ancient story telling. Passing down the ancient knowledge to the younger generations. Had one of these, XX3 (195kw). Wasn't massively strong, but was very smooth and with a manual was reasonably efficient. Good cruiser. The problem with a power number alone is that it doesn't always account for drivability. Power, Torque, rev numbers each is achieved at and the vehicle and driveline used are all contributors.

[@bobroberts2371]

6:06 Those rockers and aluminum pivot bridges look like USA Oldsmobile V8. On cars with infrequent oil changes, the center pair on the PCV valve side would wear causing a valve tap. The fix is to replace the rockers and pivots, a backyard fix is to look at the pivot, measure the amount of wear then file that amount off the bottom of the pivot.

[@JosephCowen-ru7up]

The Holden V8 in 1967 , Holden Australia went to Detroit and was allowed to tour all the GM engine factories, they chose Oldsmobile valve angles, port layout, cooling system, and Oldsmobile valve 8 degree valve angles, along with Olds starter location , I built a 403 Olds in Australia and needed parts , the Olds flywheel fits the Aussie 308 , so does starter. , bell housing is also Olds , and a Holden intake fits small block Olds ! So I guess we copied the Olds a bit , except our 308 has chev crank locations !

[@Rich77UK]

[@alternatr]

So keen for this build! Those pistons, rods and crank are all stock and genuine, and the VR series 2 (if I remember correctly) to VT engines came standard with a double row chain. A fairly easy way to get some low cost power is to slap in some flat top pistons, zero the deck height and shave the heads with a bit of head work. The VT heads have heart shaped chambers to give them the extra compression over the previous gen 5 litres (pre VSIII). These simple things will bump the comp up to nearly 11:1 and the headwork will allow the engine to make upwards of 400hp at the crank. If you're going to stay with a roller cam, you're better off going with hydraulic roller tie bar lifters, as the spider plate is prone to cracking over any more than stock pressure/lift. It's definitely easier on the wallet to go solid or solid roller, but as you'd know, hydraulic roller cams have a better power band. Another great thing about the VT block is that the lifter castings are taller than previous blocks, which means you can pretty much run whatever you want without running into lifter void issues. Some advice that I'd give you (which I'm sure you're already aware of) is to de-burr the long oil "channels" in the valley. It helps with getting oil back down to the sump, which is a big issue with performance 5L engines. They tend to starve the bearings of oil because it all gets pumped to the top of the heads and gets stuck there. There is also a section of the oil pump that doesn't match up with the block surface that can be shaved down to match, and will improve flow.

I'm glad you mentioned the main bearing side clearances, everyone else seems to overlook it. My vertical clearances check out, but the sides of the bearings are 3 thousandths more narrow, which is smaller than the crank! I hope it seats better when I put the crank in, otherwise I guess I need to swap bearings until they check out.

[@padderickpeak9493]

I bought a VN ex police car when I was 19, so that woulda been 1991 or so. 5 speed, 304. everyone told me i was crazy to buy an ex cop car but that engine never let me down, apart from when people tried to steal it (3 times). I had it for 7 years, paid $12,000 for it at govt auction and sold it for $7,000 i think. it had something like 210,000 km on it when i sold it but it didn't use oil. The car itself was falling apart around the engine cuz i never had enough money to fix things but the engine was always strong. like Al says, didn't blow your head off with power but it was torquey, great fun pushing it through the gears. Except when it was wet, then i'd get beaten at the lights by 200Bs and Geminis and stuff because I couldn't get any traction. Only traction control back then was your right foot... like someone else said here it sounded great, mine had stainless headers which i'm not sure were standard or a cop thing but anyway it was a sweet note. great car.

[@kahuwynyard4408]

How does Larry Perkins not come into this discussion? He and his team had all the right things to make 590hp at the crank and surely they have made some info available on these questions that need answers. I’m 100% positive some of his parts or at least copies of them are still floating around.

[@BradGryphonn]

New build, instant like. Nice lump of engine those 304s. My cousin had a freak stock 253 4-door Torana that was always kept immaculate. We were coming back from the Surfers Drags one afternoon back in about 1977/78 (I think). There were 5 of us in it and an SL/R 5000 motored up beside us on the highway (with a car-full as well) and challenged us (best way to describe it back then). My cousin's car ate the slur. One might argue the SLR was neglected engine-wise, but then, that 253 was a good engine.

The 5.0 become a weapon in the 1974 L34 Torana. The car weighed 1280kg. The racing you speak of used factory cars. Cams specs left them close to stock. So the mods from repco on the factory L34 motor where very effective. 380hp on a factory holden 308.
