    The Barra sounds epic mate! Don’t stress about the timeframe, take your time and go at your own pace, last thing you want is to get burned out. Really looking forward to seeing what you do suspension wise. Keep up the great work mate 🤙🏻

    Nice work mate, keep it up. I like watching the effort you're putting into it. The hand made and quality aftermarket parts is what puts this build above the others, also seeing it built to last and not for big power. I would hate to see it rushed.

      Thanks Sean :). I'll be sure to try and keep it up, I want to be proud of it at the end of the day. No shortcuts!

    Coming along awesome!! The only thing you might find is if it’s a bit loud having another muffler as close to the back as possible would make the bark a little quieter if it’s becomes a problem.
    My old xr6t Ute had an APS exhaust which had two mufflers one being right at the back and it sounded really good.
    Love the build I’ve had an xr6turbo Ute and now into 4x4 stuff so this ticks plenty of cool boxes!!

      Thanks mate, yeah it is very possible. Maybe a second one further back like you suggested to keep it nice and quiet on long trips!

    Hi Richard, don't stress on time mate, it'll get done when it gets done. Love the air box lid mate well done, I knew it would look great !! Hopefully the exhaust is not too droney when you drive it on long trips mate. Seeya Rob

    Yeah my territory had a leak like that. It turned out to be the g/box oil pump on the front. All the o-ring seals had hardened and leaked. Got it sorted at a G/box specialist for s couple of hundred bucks..... the bloody oil cost more than the repairs.... while I had it out I replaced the rear main seal on motor. The rear main has a pre lube which turns out does tend to leak a bit for the first few hundred kms... it did scare me a bit. They use a vaseline type grease which looks like oil when warm but if you let it cool it thickens up so if you do the same just keep an eye out for it. After a week mine was fine, never leaked again....👍👍good luck....

    • @DesignedandBuilt
      @DesignedandBuilt  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      -_- thanks Chris, great insight from someone with experience. I have some fresh oil for it which I haven't put in, maybe I'll do the same and get some upgrades done while I'm at it! I did the rear main before I put it all together but this does look like ATF.

    Hi. Excellent conversion. I’m in the early days of. Barra swap in my HJ75 Ute
    The motor is getting built now. Looking at stripping the 2H out soon.
    I do have some questions
    The Barra motor I have is a front sump well/pickup
    It looks like I will require. Rear sump well did you have issues here.
    I would appreciate being able to pick your brains
    Any chance we could talk.

  • @edanrutherford6244
    @edanrutherford6244 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Man it looks so good and the quality of everything is outstanding. But I am concerned about the heat soak as you mentioned. That’s a lot in front of the radiator, at low speeds I definitely think your gonna have trouble, unfortunately.

    • @DesignedandBuilt
      @DesignedandBuilt  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks Edan. I am concerned also, I guess I'll just have to test it, I think a project like this is going to take a lot of development to get right. If it works - fantastic, means a simple setup and only 1 fan. If not, no biggie I got an angle grinder and a welder so I'll sort it all out!

      100 percent, gotta ruffle some feathers to make it fun though. Can't wait to drive with a few from the other camp out on the tracks!

    Race works fittings are made in China in the same factory as aeroflow 247 Adler speed etc etc all same factory but of variable quality I would say race works is definitely higher grade from that factory

    • @DesignedandBuilt
      @DesignedandBuilt  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yep made in China but they are based here with all their development done here! Yep I reckon better quality than some of the others for sure.

    • @DesignedandBuilt
      @DesignedandBuilt  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mate I honestly have no idea! Maybe 45K worth of parts depends on how crazy I end up going with lockers, chromoly axles, paint etc. Maybe 1000 hrs of labor? Probably close to 100K if you include that!
