I’m a ford technician here in the US and I’m really pumped for this build. The Barra looks so much better built than the eco boost motors I work on everyday. I’d love to build one myself one day. Gonna have to show this vid to all my coworkers lol
barra does seem pretty cool... I HAD a 2012 supercrew f150 ecoboost was a awesome truck till i started having problems with it, thing pulled good accelerating and towed really well. my experience was it Idled really rough, had high rpm misfire ending up being spark plugs around 60k miles. After that i could tell around every 10k miles they needed changed again, would start idling rough and be more hesitant. I never ran oil to full life expectancy but 1st turbo died at 99k miles and 2nd at 113k miles. motor lost oil pressure while driving in a snow storm on the 1st turbo, so i thought she was f'ed since there was only a quart left in the engine. thats why i only replaced one. bought at 50k miles and traded in at 114k miles, i honestly dont wanna deal with another ecoboost changing turbos sucked
I had an Ecovoost Expedition what was burning oil really badly at 40k miles. I assumed it was the oil seals in turbos. You could see the smoke coming from the exhaust at idle. Luckily it was a work truck so I didnt have to deal with it.
Ford sold you short, the Barra was a development that could be traced back to the old six, 250 in Australia. Ford killed off the Barra, and given you the eco boost instead. Go Ford! Not really.
@@Belicose777 It sort of is but they have a few weaknesses as was pointed out in the video. In stock form the n/a engines have the thin weak rods, but the factory LPG/propane with the green cam cover and the turbo engines from 2006 onwards can take pretty big power on stock internals, but cant be revved over about 6300rpm or bounced off the limiter too much or the oil pump gears tend to shatter. The Barra is also undersquare with 92 mm (3.63 in) bore and 99 mm (3.91 in) stroke which makes them really torquey but makes the engine quite tall. Check out the video of a car called RIPSS at Summernats. It made over 2000hp using a 3.7 litre destroke crank which allowed it to rev passed 10,000rpm. Oh and remember this engine was only used in Australia and New Zealand, a combined new car market size probably equivalent to just Texas on its own. LS and 2JZ etc were sold worldwide so would have had more scope for factory development, better materials etc that limited Ford Australia
As an Ausie haven’t been this hyped for a Barra for a good minute you’re an absolute inspiration to us all. thanks Adam and Alberto and the wrest of the boys
Hey Alberto just wanted to say that the way you speak english has improved massively and i can see you are more confident in getting very specific in engine components!! So proud of you!! I remember coming from mexico not knowing english at all nd now my level of intelligence has advanced quite extensively !!! Keep up the great work!!!

I'll tell you. The build with Alberto was interesting af, and I'm not that into mechanic,
Big boost segment was fantastic. Then you went and were talking to Johan and I was like "man Adam has a dope team of guys with him" Then Mike came in with some glamorous b roll of the engine and I was like "BRO! " This channel is strong right now. Just need the pink princess in florida now.
Alberto is the man. Such a great mechanic. Builds fantastic stuff. Lot of Aussie videos out there that recommend that oil pump mod. Wish we had more Barra engine cars out here. Would buy one in a heartbeat.
I’ve been watching all your vids just to see anything at all about the Barra project and now I’m back to square one. Bro seriously just can’t wait for the next one.
Brooo you did what I wanted to do but I don’t have the money 🤣. Man I truly cannot wait to see this build complete. I hope in the future I can make a barra swapped s550
Not claiming I'm an expert or no everything about rebuilding or overhauling engine but this video was so refreshing. We did this with A65 and IO540 engines in A&P school. Miss those learning days. Demand is high for aircraft mechanics, well not right now bc of covid but still.
This has been one of my fav vids to date. Can't wait to see this car completed. I've owned turbod barras since 2008 (currently own 2015 G6E Turbo FGX Falcon) and one of the last supercharged coyote powered GT Falcons from the FPV factory (FPV GT Rspec) and honestly this is first time I've ever seen one of these motors being built. All credit to you and Alberto and the rest of the crew for taking on such a wicked build. Look forward to hearing it ripping the black top stateside fellas!!!!
Destroke to a 3.8 get 8500rpm and build it to 2000hp. Slap it in the s15 where it should have always been, get luke fink to help you sort the car out plus the aussie/qld connections to source parts. Im sure golbys and or skid factory should be able to help! Love your work brother 👌
I’d love to see this thing become a dedi drag car with a powerglide. I can imagine him rolling around in this thing on Rocky Mountain race week or drag week with Cleetus.
Alberto Big Boost always has the kewlest hinters/tips/tricks.... I haven't built that many engines, but enough to know that when building, you're naturally want to rush to get to the next part of assembly.... Yet his tricks/tips, will actually save you time if you don't rush into the next step.... I know I've watched at least three of his tricks, that save time just with head studs!!!! I'm digging Mike's edits!!!! Good call to bring him in!!!!
Enjoyed Alberto's section here, I don't know if the editing/music made it but the dude can really get down to the nitty gritty of explaining what he is doing!
Yo videos like this with Alberto making in depth engine work and modifications are sick. Would like to see more videos done this way with all the build you guys have!

Alberto did a great job filming himself and explaining everything
I would love to see Alberto do more of that
TriK Fox Check our his youtube channel
TriK Fox what the other guy said check out Alberto big boost
You guys should subscribe to his TH-cam he has a few super detailed vids building his 2jz an his BMW Alberto is the man at explaining what he’s doing
Alberto for president
Can everyone just appreciate how well Alberto did filming by himself?! He's come a long way since Adam first hired him!
dude his part was so informative ive never learned about any of that before and it was so dumbed down i love it
he got his own channel doe
Should've let Alberto run this on his channel
Barra porn ! Awesome job
@B ROBERTSON you completely missed the point of my comment
Has anyone else been with Adam since he was in college when he first got the cream s13
Pfsht I was learning bmx from him back in the day
I’m a bmx subscriber originally, but adam really turned me into a car guy, its dope to see how far he has come, crazy inspiration to work hard
the bmx days 🥺
I started watching to learn bmx but was stoked when he changed to cars because I was born into a family of car Lovers
Since before drifting

Dime a dozen for barras out of NZ 😅
I loved Alberto's part! He is the man :D
Check Out his channel, he does mostly this stuff there :)

MrBojangles I’m pretty sure he’s Puerto Rican.

I could watch Alberto walk thru building engines all day. Best LZ vid in a while.
same
You should go watch his channel then. There’s a lot more of that on it!
@@michaelpugh2617 just went and subb'd thx for the heads up!
It’s so cool seeing Adam using an Australian motor, especially when it’s one that is in my car over here in aus
Yep, same here. Feeling a slight sense of pride with that engine.
definitely makes me love my turbo ba even more hahaha
How gnarly are those Barras? I've somewhat known about them but they've really gotten my attention. Is it the Australian 2J?

And to think he was going to sell it.

I thought that 😂
Yeah
Yeah
looked like he was about to tell the boys to hold him down while he smashes his hands for messing up
I thought the same 😂
Love the part of Alberto and the engine building need more 😇🤔
He has his own channel Alberto BIGBOOST
Checkout out his channel as well as the older Adam LZ videos when he build the SR20DET 👌
As a person whos native language is spanish I love hearing Adam Saying words in spanish. Is so hilarious🤣
you should watch his spanish project th-cam.com/video/EXd5QqhsKT8/w-d-xo.html
Same "mi platano!" lol
And to think I could buy a Barra for $500 right now 😂
So stoked for this. Big displacement inline 6 that loves boost. No wonder why they are killer engines.
2020 mustang guys : my mustang makes 600hp
Adam: hold my coffe
Coffee btw 🙃
Hold my violet drink😭😂
The most powerful aussie barra,b series xr6t.is 2100hp and that is street driven.hell yeah maria

Shout out to Alberto, this episode was so informative and relaxing!!
i love watching ALberto work; so meticulous and detailed. this was therapeutic
Watching Alberto wrenching while explaining everything was super relaxing to me for some reason
gear head ASMR
I was going to post exactly the same, wierd but some how satisfying to watch and relaxing.
I liked Alberto‘s whole explanation 👌🏼
Alberto killed it with the filming!
Albertos part of the vid was very good! Learned a lot!
0:57 Alberto explains his mistake, then Adam has a hammer 10 seconds later 👀
Adam explains how Alberto is spending his weekend finishing the project in the shop with hammer in hand🤣🤣🤣 I didn’t notice it the first time watching
Garrett turbo: how big you want your spinny boi
El Zed: yes
Ps SUGARANDSPICEBOYTHISTHINGISNICE

@@calebhuddleston8714 thanks g
Thumbs up to alberto for filming, explaining and building the motor all by himself. Really improved his camera shy skills haha
I think Collete is having an impact on him pink engine 😂
Since she burned the car down i think its fitting , thats the reason i think
Possibly gonna be hers🤔😶
That's a red top mate 👍
Truest comment🙌
Yeah lol he said it's a tribute to the girl that burn his car down
It’s about time I see more Barra videos in America and taking advantage of the Australian 2jz, hands down one of the best motors
Making the Aussies proud with this 1 Adam.
More of Alberto explaining his work. Loved it so much!!
2:29. Alberto. " dude that turbo will make whatever boost you want" 😂😂😂😂😂 BIG BOOST
Hello mate,boost depends on the size and rating of your intercooler. Small intercooler small boost unfortunately
Alberto did a phenomenal job filming and educating viewers. Alberto = new videographer.
Thanks Alberto and Mike!
Team LZ is on fire with the content!
Loving the Barra! Aussie Aussie Aussie ! 🇦🇺
The in depth filming on the engine build was very very satisfying to watch.
As an Ausie haven’t been this hyped for a Barra for a good minute you’re an absolute inspiration to us all. thanks Adam and Alberto and the wrest of the boys
I know hey man, i thought he wouldve gone with H-Beams instead of I's though
I really really really liked seeing Alberto work and build the engine. We need to see more of those pov's. He also did a very good job building it.
Been waiting for this one
Something about engines... just chills me out
Same im 15 so im learning
Calms me down??😉
@@Yakuza05 it's a ff reference bro
So glad you are bringing the GT350 back to life, and in the best way possible! Can't wait for the finished product
So excited for this build 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Hey Alberto

I'll tell you. The build with Alberto was interesting af, and I'm not that into mechanic,
The quality of Alberto’s explaining in this video is amazing. I remember his first day there. Good work man
4:42 If Alberto started singing Amazing Grace, I would have spat my beer our lol

I did in my head 🤣🤣
Jewelz Yeah super late, but cheers! I’ll have one for you now as well hahah

Alberto the magician.. dude is so talented 🔥⚡
Engine build ASMR. I rebuilt a EJ20 when I was 17 and it was one of the most rewarding things on the planet to hear it start and idle.
I've never clicked of the hub faster
I have to imagine that you're now watching a car video just FULLY torqued
Me too 🤣
@@doom6567 fully torqued😂😂
Same what video
I love watching Alberto build these motors. He is so detailed!
Good to see you have chosen an Australian Built engine your gonna love it!
Can't beat the barras so many here in w.a I scored a barra engine for a carton the other night. That Mustang is going to be a weapon.
Alberto is the man. Such a great mechanic. Builds fantastic stuff. Lot of Aussie videos out there that recommend that oil pump mod. Wish we had more Barra engine cars out here. Would buy one in a heartbeat.

Sweet to see kelford cams being used.
Alberto is a legend.. 🔥💯 No Cap.
We need to see more vids of Alberto's comprehensive and detailed builds. I felt like I was taking an easy to learn class. Diggin that
Big boost is the man love how he operates great mechanic big love from Australia 🇦🇺
I’m so glad to start seeing Barra builds

Lz is a lucky man having Alberto an Johan work for him helping out with all these project.
i find it funny that alberto’s answer to any of adams problems is always “turn up the boost” 😂😂 thats a legit mechanic
I need more Alberto videos like this, great camera angles and explains everything so well

Damn youre really trying to milk the attention
First
Juss for the clout of being first but in reality no one cares 😂
When you come first you will see for yourself
Adam, you should make a second channel with Alberto doing these kinds of videos. Walking us through your builds. That was awesome and I learnt a lot.
Alberto has his own channel, check it out AlbertoBigBoost.
I’ve been waiting so long for this video 😂💙🙈

I do too m8
Overall fantastic filming. Alberto with the tutorial. Mike with the cinematic touch. Quality increasing.
Yo I from New Zealand good Choice on those cams they are well known Company over here
The kelford cams are the best.. this barra is going to show so many other builds up.. so happy with this
Adam: “on a scale of one to ten... *then proceeds to ask a yes or no question*”🤣🤣🙌🏼

So Alberto loves Erza Scarlet.... ☺️
Moving on doesn't mean you forget about things. It just means you have to accept what's happened and continue living.

The new filming is off the chain! It manages to maintain the old vibe but brings things to a standard to match the quality of Adam's builds.
