Description
603HP Holden Torana SLR 5000 + a wild VL Turbo build in Melbourne! We tour Daniel’s 1974 L31 SLR 5000 Torana (383 Holden combo, Powerglide, mini-tubs) that’s already run 10.1 @ 134mph, then check out his BT1 VL project with an RB billet 3.2L stroker, Precision 94, FuelTech, Turbo 400 and big goals—low 7s and beyond.
In this episode of Aussie Garage, Phil talks through the full setup: engine bay details, drivability, street vs track compromises, wheel & tyre choices, and why these builds keep evolving from “simple plans” into full-blown weapons.
