We’ve got a near feature length video on the way that showcases what we reckon is the greatest bromance in the automotive world.

Last month, Dannie and part of our crew headed down to the nation’s capital to hang out with Ben and the Canberra SRT team our go to machine shop for short blocks, big V8s, and even the odd build too.

We filmed over seven hours of raw content with Ben talking us through some serious engine builds, showing off the projects underway in his shop, and taking us for a spin in SRTs pushing 1000hp.

Editing a behemoth timeline like this has been a task, but it’s almost done and will be dropping on our YouTube channel any day now. Stay tuned!

Shout out to Ben Doble one of the greatest figures you could meet in the automotive industry.

So it turns out the SRT grille is different. It sits a little prouder, effectively flush with the headlights.
This is our project build. Now with a SRT grill.
Amazing how such a minor change in something as mundane as the Grill completely upgrades the look.
Videos coming soon.
