- To handle all the power that our twin turbo 427 is going to make we need a serious rear end in our Drag Challenge Ute, and that's going to take a whole bunch of mods.
Street Machine Carnage is all about having fun with cars. Sometimes it's serious performance, sometimes it's crazy fun, but it always interesting and done on a budget.

Can we take a moment to appreciate the knowledge and craftsmanship Adam and MPW have?
I can honestly say this channel is the one video a week I actually look forward to watching. Keep up the great work Scotty, this ute is turning into something special. I can't wait to see it make some passes.
It helps me get out of bed every Friday.
11.01 “don’t get me started” hahah you’re the best Scotty
Adam from MPW not only does great work, he gave Scotty a haircut as well!
That diff is something else the knowledge there from Adam is amazing, more work than expected again, your in good hands though.
Scotty
Your one of the few CZcams channels that’s actually “Real”
Your share your wins, challenges, setbacks, losses, breakdowns just how many times you really meet to try and achievements
One of the best CZcams channels because your honesty
Cheers scotty
Those MPW lads know their shit hey, good stuff.
1:03 hahahha, dont get me started u the best scotty haha
This has been the best vid I’ve watched so far. Watching those mpw guys is awesome man they are precise. No more “throw a 9 inch in her”. These guys are top notch! This car will be special.
Hey Bro,
Have you considered raising the Deck-bed Floor, to the height that allows Diff Clearance???
That would be my solution & sacrificing a wee bit of Cargo Depth, but probably not relevant enough to discourage, for this purpose (& most others anyways).
Love the content, as always, Scotty.
Kia Kaha,
Grant from NZ.
Adam is certainly the right bloke for building a super fast and safe street car. This is definitely going to be a full on Screamer.
That’s a schmick set up right there Scotty 🍻👍
Take your time in building the beast. Do it once and do it right👍👍👍 love the video
Great to see what was done on the ute. she'll be ready when she's ready. until then, we'll keep watching
Adam from MPW instilled a lot of confidence in what he was doing. He was very methodical in his explanation, sounds like the ute is in good hands. Some decent looking welds as well. Even though it looks like there is going to be some modifications to the plan, that is lot more like my idea of quality work. I am guessing he didn't want to install the wishbone on the bottom because of the exhaust?
Correct
Nothing like juggling plenty of projects at once brother, keeps you on your toes eh, love the cars and videos lately.
Love watching you pause for a second as you imagine the ute the way you will see it.
The haircut keeps popping up each new episode.
We half shot a bunch of episodes prior to the haircut
@@STREETMACHINETV
I’m still waiting for you to lose your shite.
But you’re one calm cookie mate with all the set backs 👍🏻👍🏻
Amazing work, thanks for the great video
Good to see it coming along... I still have my single 7955/ G42-1450 in the cupboard from 2 years ago...Still waiting to afford just the hits idea....And the trans out....May have it paid off by 2024...
You wont care about the hump in the Ute floor Scotty when your pulling consistent 7s down the quarter ❤ 👌💪
True!!
progressing nicely, you don't muck you have squeezed a years worth of work in to weeks I so want to see it going
Awesome stuff Scotty gunna be one tuff ute regardless brother 💪 💯 👍 👌
This is my favourite build so far, can’t wait to see it making some rips!
Easy. just raise the whole floor. Hahahahahaha. Great vid m8.
Man that rear diff is just a work of art. Well done guys.
MPW boys: let's carefully undo all the bolts and gently lower the old diff.
Scotty: let's just grind the f***er off!
Yeah, there's a massive difference in what they do and what I do
Great video on progress Scotty. Adam, you are the ultimate professional. Love your work.
the 9 inch with the floating hubs is just amazing, but the Dana 80 still works... but its so heavy that a underbody subframe made of 1/4 inch plate that ties in over a larger aria, similar to an independent suspension frame... a lot more mileage of lead foot? at sea... yatzy "AAM1150" 🤣 got one.
Fully blown V8 power, racing carbs, double pumpers and a beefy rear end.... BEEFY!!
😂👍Yes the good old 90's when you opened a pack of thins and it was full of chips not this 1/3 chips 2/3 air you get if your lucky now. Also the cops would only give you a warning for spinning the wheels leaving the lights not impound your car for 30 days .
BEEFY!!!!
@@rustymonaro184 The good old days! When you spent thousands on your motor to only achieve 250hp and terrible 1/4 mile times haha :) The chip packets have worsened but performance variants haven't.
@@ayycee5303 did I say anything about horsepower ? Of course modern engine / turbos , electric motors make more power . My comment was referring to what happened in the TV commercial and what you get now .
@@rustymonaro184 chilll rusty you'll pop a core plug cob
Always love watching you guys. But at this point i wouldnt mind seeing some love thrown at a boss 5.4 boat anchor build . Its not a popular choice but i think thats what makes this channel fun.
Great looking piece. They always do great work there.
Great job 👍🇦🇺
So many speed holes in that housing. Jealous level 9.
Exhaust looks like its going to be a mission getting past that rear end soooooo
Dendy ute muster stack exhaust behind the "cab" ! !!!
Sometimes you can't avoid the hump Scotty, embrace the hump. 🥴
Good to see the ute progress. Enjoying the content. 👍🏎️💨
Mount the wishbone tab on the centre of the pumpkin and that should give more clearance up top, I was surprised that's where they put it in the first place
Can’t wait to see this diff setup sorted, if you do cut the floor up could you use a painted hard tonneau cover to hide it all?
Looking good. Going to be a beast. Thanks to MPW for the footage and explanation. Look, I'm not trolling or trying to be an arsehole, but inches! Really?
We're old school
So am I, older than you? (1960). Just gets me. Metric forever
The American solution to your problem is raise the entire floor 3" (and by this I mean simply put another floor over whatever is left from the cutting)..... gives you space for a battery and fuel cell under the floor as well....
There's already a space for fuel tank in the front area of the tray as Holden turned the wagon floorpan into the ute.
Could have simply made the 4 link brackets 3" longer if he wanted to turn it into something looking like a 4WD. If he was building a show car then I could understand going to the effort of raising the ute bed, but then you are still back to it not looking stock. I think the idea is to kind of keeping it look stock.
@@DodgyBrothersEngineering as someone who has never built a stock vehicle in his life, I'm constantly amazed at how oblivious people can be... but you move it 3" up you will have to beat off the grandpas who tell you that "they had one just like it, that they special ordered it from Holden" And for heaven's sake, it's got skinnies and slicks on it... a sleeper it will never be
@@stoneshrink shit, it was a very long time ago but didn't Holden do something like that? An Overlander or something? I very vaguely remember seeing a Holden sat up high. I know some people did it way back when sitting in on a 4WD chassis, but I think Holden did a version themselves.
@@DodgyBrothersEngineeringHolden Adventra, commodore wagon on stilts with split tailgate
I see MPW have the same concrete floor paint as my Landlord used....LOL
Hey look at that a Hr ute with a proper HR rear tailight
That's a lot of bracket! Interesting to see a lack of ppe used given how much fabrication is done.
Looking good!
That RTS housing looks like an exact copy of the Strange housing I am using on my electric trike, except I don't think I have a drain bung in the bottom, and without the cost of freighting it from the U.S. Joey looks like a very happy worker... Did someone upset him or is that his come to work face?
Come on Scotty! Mate you would have to be the only bloke in Aus to ever be sad about having a hump in the back of his Ute. Thats just not how you play cricket mate......lol
I really really like it!!!!!!❤
Looking good, mate
Serious lookin stuff Scotty🤑
Don't get me started 🤣🤣🤣🤣 one more crack boys, 10.99 is all yus need 👍
NO HUMP! Raise the entire floor.
Adam is the man
Building a race car is a pretty complicated process hey Scotty 👍👍
Your hair grows quicker than homer Simpson's beared Scotty.
Some of this was shot pre-haircut
Don’t loose the flat floor , just raise it a inch or two upwards to keep the look. Just cut where you need to and put a fake floor above it
showing off the features of the diff housing... "you've got a drain plug there and a fill plug there"
Well, it is a bare housing
Talk about unloading the parts cannon 😮
Is it a receiving parts issue 🤔 or is it to many hands in the cookie jar, doing to much. Unfortunately I'm not in the position to go to the drag challenge and what other content creators up load is limited to what there doing. So sitting here I haven't a clue what car made it if at all. All still exciting for me.
Neither of them did, was covered the week before drag challenge when they worked on the lexcen.
@@Low760 I must of missed that, I was watching 👀
Serious bit of kit that diff....
Could you make up a false floor to cover the hump so it still looks stock but covers up the work that you have done to raise the diff
We could but it would be a shallow ute tub
I was going to write the same thing..
Surely the floor could be raised that 3 inches to look the same.
Only hassle will be the tubs looking smaller, but will retain the flat factory look..
I really like the idea, but that sounds like a shit load of work, and a whole lot of extra weight.
As much as you guys cut up cars and drill welds i would think you would have a set of roto broach bits by now to make short work of spot welds
Old saying is true not what ya know it’s who ya know !!!!! And who better to know then MPW !!!!!!
Is the pulsed TIG used for heat control or for show haha
Fabrication pornography.
Build quality that would equally be at home in the Elite Hall at Summernats as it is on the track and street.
Can always just raise the floor height so you don’t have a hump. Extra work but if you want it flat.
ends up too shallow unfortunately
@@STREETMACHINETV bugger... that was my thought too
Raise the floor in the tray four inches
"If we spend a little bit of time on the Lexcen, it will make it..."
Eish 🙃
What's the song playing from 6:30?
That diff wouldn't look out of place at the Tate Modern.
Beefy 👌
Joey needs some Kt26's
Adam and the boys at MPW do some nice work!
I found it a little hard to clearly hear everything he said due to the mic placement off to one side on his hoodie though.
👍👍👍
OMG using milwaukee and not your sponsored Ryobi..😂
Ryobi are no longer a sponsor
Scotty what were the brackets you cut off after the pan hard bar bracket. I originally thought you were taking off spring pads, but then you took them off after that, were they for the shocks?
That is bumpstop bracket for Ute's...underneath is slot in chassis rail that sedan/wagon bumpstop rubber goes into.
Lower ute a decent amount it will hit axle tunes.
@@ShaunDavis-jl6fr Ah OK never even thought about them. Thanks.

What radiator are you running?
Pro Flow
@@STREETMACHINETV thanks mate
Is that young guy towards the end Gus? Al (skid factory) son.
LOL, no
Young Gus is twice the size of the young fella at MPW
@@jeepnutscotty Gus would bench press that fella haha
🐠🤘
The only downside to mirrrored turbos is having spares, have to have one of each
Yep, that's true
@@STREETMACHINETV apart from that they look cool and can help with neat packaging 🙂
Bots are out this morning.
Budget update.......under or over $50k yet
If you're talking retail on everything, we're over
@@STREETMACHINETVadd in labour and parts and the ute will come in around $100,000 -$120,000 to build
No one is building a reliable 7 second car for under $50k
Blame wuflu or climate change. every government in the world does. It is a great & ambitious project.
What an absolute waste of a build, why waste all this work by putting a radial tyre on it. There's nothing interesting able watching a car that's only going to hook out 1-2 time out of 10 . Such a disappointment for this build 😔
Radial tyres are where it's at these days. You think we should set it up for a slick?
@@STREETMACHINETVthere’s always one
Anyway what are you doing with that old borgie diff
I’d be happy to grab it so I can build another diff for my Vs ute so I don’t have to pull mine out till I’ve built another one
Cash
What a great build, proper man stuff 😊
