Never seen Scotty move so fast since the Toxic avenger caught fire !!!
34:13 golden nugget of Scotty dropping an F bomb 🤣
great job Scotty lots going on, nothing like a deadline for interesting viewing 👍😁
awesome work Scotty, it's good watching the engine go together. can't wait to see it on the dyno.
Awesome stuff Scotty! Hope ya got it all done & are at the Track sending it!
Great information with the engine assembly
I can’t wait to see it in the car on the dyno and the track 👍🤙🍻
Hay what a way to finish the week with a kool vid from Scotty and ita about the Barramazda Awesome scotty cant wait for the next vid on this keep them coming man !
Great work Scotty, it's good to see assembly methods, and a great engine
Needed more use of the torque-shifter... 😀
Really informative and interesting video- you know your stuff and explain things well- thank you!😉
There you go Scotty.....You don't always have to have lots of "Carnage" in your episodes of Carnage, Just a basic informative vid on how to put together a motor, Brilliant effort and a great result 👍😃
Go Carnage! I went and saw the team at Hare & Forbes in Dandy and bought some nice tool boxes and tool chest. Great people to deal with. I support people who support great creators.
Thank you for all the tips and tricks to building a Barra
There's a guy in the States (nivlac 57) that's building a GM Vortec 4200 block (inline 6 & 4 valves per cylinder) with boost (he's just getting started) that he got 847 hp He had con rods and pistons!! Maybe we can have a Barra/Vortec shoot out?? My guess is he doesn't have near the budget that some cars have. I'm hoping he gets some serious sponsorship soon!
Mentioned this to Scotty a while back....Calvin's been playing around and spearheading those engines for a while, definitely agree with ya on the sponsorship.
The Vortec doesn't quite have the aftermarket support that the Barra enjoys now but it'd be an absolute riot seeing Scotty tearin' it up around the US in the mx5....
Your an automotive artist....
Been following your every move since 'Turbo Taxi' build.....
I love when I get every notification that u have dropped another vid...
Pls keep doing u..... so different but real...... love your work mate... shout out from NT........😁
Thank you for the kind words mate
That assembly makes it very clear why no one bothers with the Holden v6 sidi motors. Simple with huge potential.& relatively cheap!
What a really good job Scotty!!!
Nice hone job , most slap togethers go good can't wait for the results
Only one thing needs to be said Scotty:
*Nothing beats a 2K Barra!* 😉👍
That hone job is epic. Love your videos.
More people need to watch Carnage! Bloody fantastic content Scotty
Share it around with your friends
I really hope this thing went together beautifully without any issues and made big hp can’t wait for future videos
I don't want to give spoilers, but let's just say there's alot of win in the next two videos
Hell yes this is awesome. Love a budget build.
Would have to say these barra engines are. bloody good to lern how to build a inline 6. nice build scotty
Good stuff Scotty.
Awesome build Scotty love these videos 👌🏻 I just built the same thing with my Barra turbo 👍 factory turbo pistons ceramic coated with spool h beam rods Hastings rings and ACL race bearings and boundary pump gears and atomic timing kit with stock tensioner crow cams valve springs ARP headstuds and flywheel bolts currently on 301kw on run in tune just about to do a full send tune on 98 and e85 tune on maxx performances old dyno now at Mackay customz in Tassie 🤙🏻
Im building my 1st Barra and it will be similar, I bought some .001 over pistons and rods from Spool, it will get honed, and ill check the deck to see if it needs a surface. Love this engine, im in the US by the way. Thanks for the video.
Good work there Scotty.
Awesome, such an informative thing to watch. Feel like getting my own Barra now 😅🤞
Thanks mate
Ohh the old garage hone..there's a man after me own heart right there 👌😁
I've got no doubt in my mind that thing is going to rip, don't worry about comment know it all's you do real well, keep it going love to watch
Nice Work Scotty.
Awesome video scotty
Good stuff Scotty
Good to see Scotty you going for some nice HP ,
You must know the Barra inside and out ..nice seeing it come together.
Hey Scottie, i absolutely love watching you tinker away in the workshop, what is the best way to follow your day to day achievements (FB or Instagram etc)
Awesome video 👍
Top work Scotty can't wait to see KW numbers on the dyno I'll go the number of the beast 666kw🤣👍🍻
Classic scotty good laugh n content
If only I could post a pic of the great man - El Risitas
$2k Barra for the win. When Telf asked what it was gonna cost I told him $2k and I wasn't wrong. Obviously that doesn't factor in the valve springs or oil pump gears which we already had.
Awesome work.
I did this as well. But i used the spool rebuild kit with stock size cp pistons
How did it go?
Great stuff
In the next episode, can you get a random piece of hose and... hassan chop! I miss hassan chop 😭
Getting good at that Scotty! Glad that went together hassle free! Make sure to double check oil pressure relief torque ;)
Pleasure to watch.
I'd have used Loctite AND lock-wired the bastard thing after last time...
You scared the shit out me there for a second. I thought from the way the video looked you were checking all of the rings in the same bore. Phew!!!, thank goodness he is checking rings in another bore. Heart can start beating again.
I'm dodgy but not that dodgy
@@STREETMACHINETV some of the things you see on TH-cam are down right scary. I figured you knew better, but just the way the video was shot looked like you did numerous rings on that one bore. I was going WTF!!! then the video of you doing the next one. Phew... Do you match pistons to bores? Don't think I have ever seen you do that in any of your videos. Some might think it is over kill but I like to match the biggest piston to the biggest bore and work my way down to the smallest / smallest.
@@DodgyBrothersEngineering I'll admit I didn't bother trying to match pistons to bores
Love the vids❤️
You built an engine in 35min! :P
Smashed it out Scotty, hope she holds together.
At this point it's done a stack of dyno runs and seven passes down the track, so I'll call that a win
@@STREETMACHINETV cant wait to see the results
Love your work mate…..
This was a bloody good watch
Thank you, make sure watch the racing video
This is inspiring me to get back out in the shed and put the LS for my VX SS back together , also makes me wish I had put a Barra in it .
Am sure the Barra would have been cheaper and LS1 blocks (I had to find a replacement) seem to be getting hard to find.
Is engines are getting expensive. We'll probably do another LS build using one of our blocks in the next 12 months or so
junkyard 4.8 is cheaper than both
@@Name-yp3pi not available in Australia
@@STREETMACHINETV here’s a build here plus i used to have one myself th-cam.com/video/e6ryUkgRrB0/w-d-xo.html
Coz Carnage! Love this
Keen to see the results 👍
I’m secretly hoping you tried some different TB orientation on the dyno 😁
We shot all this in the same week, Diagnosis, Build, Dyno, Race. But I will orientate the throttle body now that I know it's an issue
@@STREETMACHINETV fair enough Scotty, you have been flat out.
Let’s us know what you find when you get around to doing it 👍
Your work is like watching a painter making ART....
Good stuff. Better under time pressure :)
BTW: Just a 10000th (not of a thou)...
Nice vid, how many cheaps was it to get to this stage?
Mmm Street Machine still around since 1981. Do you get special points if you bought "Van Wheels" in the 70s too? Where is my free T shirt!!. RIP Geoff Paradise (and now Chick.). Im not getting old...still 21 inside!! Still here from the beginning.✌
Thanks for the support
A roofing square with some flat bar tacked onto it may be a better alternative to that small honing guide your using bruv.
Awesome to see! One question, where did you get the fg pistons from?
Maxx Performance had them
360 degree thrust is definitely run in the barra’s. All ACL and other decent bearing companies come with double thrust bearings.
Glad to see the mx5 coming back.
Not from factory they don't
@@STREETMACHINETV yes obviously not from factory, however it’s a routine upgrade with any upgraded bearings and virtually essential with a powerglide/t400 converters pressure.
Scotty next engine build can you use a big shifter on the head studs and edit in the torque wrench click sound. It will generate some great conversations in the comment section.🤣
Will be good to see what she can do! Might need more than 25psi though 💨the old rattle gun harmonic install,, have seen multiple barra key way's crack from this. 🙈
It will need more than 25psi to make 1000hp at the crank
2K Barra here we come
Good luck mate, hopefully you don't send those rods to the moon! 👍
I like how Scotty and even the bloke at dandy engines both have one of them piston installing hammers with the extended head and they still bang them in with the handle 😂😂😂
The " But Race Engine😊" did it for me ahahaha
Nice work, I thought you could run bottom main bearings on top aswell to give you 360° thrust or do you need machine work to do that?
You would have to machine the cap for that
Barra is the way
scotty getting it done
For your vice, if you cut up some 90 degree aluminium angle, instant "soft jaws".
A lot better than the old rag.
I have soft jaws
Only with a Barra can you do a single episode dunny brush hone and build, Yeah I know it was a wet stone hone but I like saying Dunny Brush :-)
I reckon the original converter push crank shift worry came from the old "Hemi" 6 Cam walk days when the oil pump drive would fall off the end of the cam...... Do it once and it haunts you.
Can’t wait for the next one
I tried rebuilding my Gemini engine because it rattled a little
So I did rebuild it but it still rattled ☹️
It didn’t leak so much 😂😂
33:40 You’ve got no excuse anymore Scotty that horrible green rocker covers got to go!!!!😜
That 6.4l hemi in the background 😉
I know, it looks lonely. Might find a home for it
One does not buy a 6.4l hemi and gearbox without a plan ..hmm ..do tell Scotty 😉😉
@@mun33y I may be wrong but it's destined for the L-Word wagon?
The only thing Bubba breaks is hearts!
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾... Barra Love
@23:40 you are lucky the Kt26's never got drenched in oil
Slappy Gilmore :P
Some times you just have to send it
Appreciate the "imperial"numbers ('thou")!!
Loose is fast,lessh gooo baby
Question: Any reason why you would not opt for a heavier windage tray over the standard one ?
The windage tray is heavy enough, if you're talking crank girdle then I think that for 1000hp+ engines and for those you would build them with alot more care than we have used here
It's pretty amazing that you can just shoot the parts cannon at a motor these days and make stupid power. Gone are the days of die grinding for months on end to make an extra 2 HP
Exactly, these engines are ridiculous
A lot of it has to do with the engine management systems we have now. I remember back in 2000 someone built a turbo’ed AU, cost heaps and the best they got was 250rwkws using an old Motec.
Scotty that 904 will bolt up to that 6.4 hemi… just saying, you put that shift kit in pops transmission lets send it down the track with a hemi. Haha
I know it is for a lockdown project but that engine is so close to the ute right now.
Haha, nah Dad was a carby guy
They have carburetor intakes for them too. Haha
I like how you're listening to the crowd. Jam that thing into the eights and lift that front end into the sky!
Mint
Are those forged pistons? No need to rebalance the motor?
Factory turbo pistons, and inline six isn't as sensitive to balance as a v8 or v6
Did u use arp main studs without line honing the mains ?
Yep, but measured the clearances. Budget build!
That’s a long hammer you have there!
Anybody notice the 6.4l hemi in the background?? Twin turbo
Hemi hiding in the background 😯
nice one Scotty , your only weak link now should be the driver
For a slap together job it goes alright
hey scotty what timing chain kit did you use? or was it a factory set? ive got a green top (healthy 120xxx kms bf mk2) that im aiming for 350-400rwkw and wondering if i should spend the 650 on an atomic kit or if it will be fine
Factory chain
@@STREETMACHINETV thankyou
"It wasn't Bubba at all, he didn't break anything"
No sentence has ever been less true. As long as Bubba exist,s somethings getting broken.
So what was the rough cost for all parts required, including the things you already had like turbo taxi oil pump etc?
I'll have to check the retail prices
@@STREETMACHINETV I'll wait for your response, also would be good to do an itemised list with total cost and put it in the description. I'm looking to do one myself and would be keen on using proven parts
If you put some grease on that engine stand it will roll the motors over easier
Yeah, but I don't want it moving too freely
what oil are you dipping the pistons in? is it the standard oil or is it thicker for first start up
Std engine oil
@@STREETMACHINETV thank you ill try this trick when I enevitiably have to dig into my datsun motor
What are the Pros/Cons of a Bara compared with the 2J or RB?
That's a big conversation.
What was the reasoning on using a H beam rod over an I beam?
It's not so much H-beam over I-beam, it's more of a better rod over factory rod
Does this mean that Bubba gets a shot at the new build?
Hey 👋 Scott what's the easyest way to change the barra 6 speed automatic trens oil 🛢 ?? Need tips can't losses fill cap lol
I don't have a 6-speed so I can't answer that one sorry
All good 👍 just thought you mite have came across 😉 this problem before thanks anyway keep up the great vids 👍 life on the barra
Drop pan or pull a line on the transcooler and let the pump do the work, switch off engine when flow pulses.
Remember reading that in a falcon forum
Thanks Matt I'll give it a try 👍
Hi mate, just wondering if I can install a new oil pick up in my territory Barra turbo by removing the steering rack and sump pan, I think the pick up mesh is blocked making the oil light come on
On a Territory you might be able to just remove the steel section of the sump, but what makes you think the pick up is blocked? A common oil problem with Barra's is oil pump gears and you can't replace that without major work
@@STREETMACHINETV my mechanic said the oil pressure was fluctuating and reckons that might be the problem, I took it to ford and replaced the oil sensor but still didn’t fix the light, so been driving it for 5 years with the oil light on now it’s in limp mode, but engine never misses a beat no rattles or anything
