It was a pleasure showing you guys around the boost factory 👌

[fullboost]

Nice video guys, great Aussie company to work with :)

As a lad from the States, I am always impressed at the level of dedication the Aussies have to their craft. Giving Al and Woody the time to come into the shop and highlight the level of expertise and engineering that is local to their country is always impressive. Cheers to the Harrop Engineering lads for giving an insight into their factory!

Loved the Aussie approach to building high quality. Get it done without hype. Awesome facility Harrop.

Another one of the many reasons that I love Australians. An example of an an outfit who has their act together. Beautiful job guys!

Loved it. Heath delivered a comprehensive explanation of the whole operation, managing to be clear, precise, enthusiastic and all over it, without being all shiny and corporate. Looks like such an awesome place to work and clearly the stuff they make is outstanding. Thanks for sharing.

That place looks amazing! I have been in some impressive manufacturing facilities (including Holley) & this is truly a cut above.

Harrop makes some top notch goodies. They even make a supercharger upgrade kit for my old Mini. It’s on my list of upgrades to buy someday!

Harrop has come a long way since Ron run his “Howler” and made a big mark. Thanks for sharing Al and Woody.

Excellent video fellas and an amazing way to showcase the production process. Goes to show exactly what we've been preaching for years, we have some of the best manufacturers and parts in the world!
Built right here on Aussie soil 💪🏻💪🏻🇦🇺

All I can say is, WOW!
That's the kind of place us small time metal carvers can only dream of working in. Such amazing machinery and capabilities, organization and quality control. Simply amazing.

I remember the awkward silence with the cam and then everybody put their thinking head on and just got to work and saw the problem.
Would love to see your big block in US maybe catch up with Finnegan team.
Your videos just keep getting better and better and better I remember the first ones. I think the car community as a whole loves the kind of stuff that you do.

Fantastic to see that we still have high quality automotive manufacturing happening in Australia after the death of our local automotive industry. Seeing facilities like this is the one aspect that I miss from being in the CAD/CAM industry for 20 years up until 2016. Always loved seeing the amazing products that were designed and manufactured in our products. Great episode and looking forward to seeing the dyno results next week.

Amazing Episode and an impressive place!

To think you now 3D scan a block, CAD design it, and mill out the bits all without touching a tape measure or tool is awesome.

[Techno]

Oh man, I work in a little CNC job shop in Queensland so its so cool to see some quality Australian manufacturing at this scale, excellent workshop and Al just taking it all in.

[TheCuttz]

What a dream place to work. Harrop is a true Australia icon. Even as a kid I remember the blowers they made for the 304 V8s. Thanks for sharing

[PropanePete]

That engineering facility is jaw dropping amazing...

[lanceneuman]

Wow Harrops... The Skid Factory is stepping up their game. Top shelf.

[richardallen]

Melbourne based engineer here, Harrop are fantastic. Really nice to have a little tour around inside such a tidy operation. 10/10. Must be awesome to be involved with the development and come home with a shiny new piece of top shelf engineering. Sounds sweet too. 👍

What a fantastic video! Thanks Harrop for taking Al and Woody through your wonderful facility.
