The engines are generally bulletproof being all cast iron block and head, I replaced the engine in my HR in 1984 with a second hand one from burnt out HR in a scrap yard, moved all the ancillary stuff from the outside of my engine to the second hand one, fitted it to my car and had it running by the end of the weekend, sacrificed three or four cartons of beer with the mates that helped me but that engine ran for another eight years without so much as a cough before I sold the car, still running at the time, in 1992.

Moved to Perth in 1980s and and sold it to a couple of girls who drove it around Australia for two years then when they got back to Perth they sold it back to him for what they brought it for. He was always a softy. I think it ended up in his backyard and it sat there for years until one of my cousins started driving it around again.

Hi just one correction the Hydra-matic (GM) 3 speed Automatic Transmission was available in Holdens model EK, EJ & EH. the HD model came out with a 2 speed Powerglide Transmission.

[@edbenti5007]

If that is an original GM Hydra-Matic transmission it is a FOUR speed non-overdrive fully automatic first offered in the 1940 Oldsmobile, but designed by Cadillac. I had a 1960 Caddy convertible with the Hydramatic. Now maybe GM offered the Hydramatic in Australia as a 3 speed, I wouldn't know, but their 3 spd US tranny was called the Turbo-Hydramatic. The 2 spd was the Chevrolet PowerGlide.

[@hamwank]

@@edbenti5007 Yes the GM was only a 3 speed as the Holden was only a small car compared to the Cadillac, when Holden GMH change in 1965 to the 2 speed Powerglide performance was diminished this transmission was replaced in about 1969 with the locally made tri-matic.

You just worked your auto adventure of will it run. In the US. I'm working on a 606 international tractor waking it up and trying to make it run. It's from the 60's, gas tank rusted threw as the air cleaner can. It's something that's on the slow GETTER DONE as I pick-up used parts to make her run. I enjoyed your adventure. Wish my tavern was around the corner, it's 40 miles away. Great job.

[@DARANGULAFILM]

The Hydramatic was a three speed automatic transmission. My vague memory is that the two-speed Powerglide automatic commenced with the HD. The Hydramatic was unique in that the second gear was direct with some sort of torque converter lockup. Apparently, because of this feature, the engine could be tow-started so long as the car was towed fast enough for friction to begin turning the engine and the oil pump in the transmission to start building enough pressure to energise the servo in the transmission.

[@edbenti5007]

The GM Hydra-Matic was a FOUR SPEED non-overdrive fully automatic, the FIRST fully mass-produced automatic automotive transmission in world history. They called it "fluid drive" and was actually battle tested in WW2. They can move a 3 ton vehicle fast, durable, very tough.

[@keithammleter3824]

It's a 2-speed transmission. You cannot tow start them. Having only 2 speeds, these EJ cars were known for their gutless drive feel. The engine is only 2.3 litres (138 cubic inches), not really sufficient for such a transmission. GM Australia put "Hydramatic" on these EJ's as a marketing strategy - they had the rights to the name so they could do that, even though it was not what was branded Hydramatic in the USA. The USA Hydramatic box was intended for heavier vehicles with much larger engines. For that matter, even in the USA, GM branded different 3 speed and 4 speed transmissions as "Hydramatic" at various times. You are correct in saying that the Australian Powerglides were 2-speed. They are actually a variant of the same box as fitted in EJ's and labelled Hydramatic. Three speed auto transmissions came to Holdens later, were labelled "Trimatic", and were a considerable improvement.

[@keithammleter3824]

@@danejames7098 : Sometimes we called them "Try-matic - try and accelerate"". But, actually, they were very good boxes.

[@Rob-fc9wg]

​@@keithammleter3824 It's a 3 speed Hydromatic.

[@keithammleter3824]

@@Rob-fc9wg You are thinking of the EH. The car in this video is an EJ, mechanically identical to the previous EK. The word is "Hydramatic", not "Hydromatic". Although branded Hydramatic on EK's and most EJ's, they are actually what is known in the USA as "Powerglide" - a cheap unit (type C213 etc) meant for basic 6-cyl Chevrolets. The later HD's and HR's were branded honestly - ie branded "Powerglide'". Same actual transmission. You would hardly expect these later cars to get 2-speeds if GMH had already been supplying 3-speeds. Some restorers & lovers of old Holdens replace the auto boxes in EK's and EJ's with Trimatics, as it is not too difficult and the result is a much more responsive car without the excessive revving needed to get the car moving. You need to pick the right Trimatic version (shifter on the right side), get an engineering shop to make up a special flywheel, and do a bit of cutting in the cross-member. Genuine Hydramatic boxes (as obtained from USA) will not fit as the transmission tunnel is too small. GMH probably branded the EK-EJ boxes as Hydramatic as at that time it was the husband who chose the car, and many men read magazines from the USA, where the Powerglide was known as cheap and nasty for the folk who could not afford better than a basic Chevy, whereas the Hydramatic was a luxury quality thing fitted to Pontiacs.

[@Milena066]

[@keithhaycraft3765]

The EJ Holden dated to 1963, the last year the grey motor (215 cid) was used.

[@opiumtrail7032]

The Holden grey motor was never 215 cid. It was 132 and 138 cid.

[@time2kickarse]

215 was a Chrysler motor used in a centura before they went to a 245 hemi.

[@richlawrence4160]

the holden grey was a scaled down copy of the chev engine which I think was about 200 cubes, so a USA viewer could mistake the size. Both motors looked identical except for size. and yes, the red motor came out in the EH (basically the same body) next model of 149 and 179 cubic inch sizes.
