You can get crazy power from those I6's...nice...

[TheOceanman]

Finally a Commodore you could be proud to drive..

Odd how people are fine with a Japanese Nissan I6 in the VL yet think it's absolutely awful to put in an Australian Ford I6. At least it's something different to a fucking LS swap.

I think I should give this a thumbs up? It's bloody quick, so why not I guess...

[paulirobinson]

just proves theres a bit of good in everything.. go the barra.. gotta love those engines. like an aussie version of the 2jz.

Now there's a smart Holden owner. If you want your Holden to go fast stick a Ford in it.

One of the only dedicated drag cars I find interesting.

[chriss]

Quick yes, Sacrilege to do this combo.

Thats an interesting spot for fuel injectors! I'm sure to help cool the charge air since its on methanol but its also ahead of the blow-off valve but its where it is best. Could end up venting overboard some fuel enriched air. Little bit of a fire hazard but could lead to a nasty intake plenum backfire/turbo damage if it caught an ignition source if he peddled the car a little bit. Probably not all that likely either but there's fuel & fire present.

Damn! I watch these videos all the time. When are we going to get some "barra" action in the states?

[atheosxgaming]

they shoulda put the big turbo on there..

[johnoneil]

Another 1, the countrys gone mad? GMH/FORD

[apismellifera]

Like to have that engine in my 2010 Ford Ranger,

[greatape]

where's the blue oval badge? no chev here

[nathanmorley]

Was it hard to fit the barra in a vk??

[daevillicker]

Holy shit Holden needs Ford motor to run faster

[alexlespier]

+Fullboost how muh hp does it have though

[fordfalcon]

This is wrong. A Mitsubishi Smegma with a Barra conversion would be more tolerable

[prostreetdrag]

when your so scared to go fast so u stick a ford motor in it to slow it down . grow some ballssss
