As they say in that legendary ol' Aussie flick: "Speed's just a question of money: how fast do you wanna go?" That moment of the 2019 Drag Week where you needed to find an engine shop in North Carolina and Robbie came in and was the hero of the day was excellent. The spontaneous hospitality of the American locals was excellent and would do the same.
The Bedford build was one of the best builds on TH-cam due to the amount of re design / build of parts to get the Barra in. I am really glad this build is back it’s going to be very interesting.
As a mechanic myself, thanks for keeping in some of the really detailed information. Was awesome to listen to you both have a technical conversation over an awesome engine.
Fully enjoyed that, U.K. resident here and have always had a love from destroked and engines so loved the idea of this! Was hooked throughout, sometimes these full depth can lead to jumping through but watched the length!
The usual 'thumb up' for the content, and two more for correctly using lb-ft, rather than ft-lb which is actually work done.👍👍👍 So, a trip across the Pacific in the future for the Bedstead? It'll confuse the heck out of our American buddies 🤣
As we move in the electric age of motor vehicles, I do hope that this wonderful knowledge and craftsmanship of building amazing combustion engines is preserved in some shape or form ...
That workshop looks cleaner then some restaraunts! The attention to detail, and the explanation of the sealing rings, so clear and easy to understand why!
Thanks for sharing so much technical detail. Especially the part about the fire ring crush over the gasket thickness. I've talked to so many "Pros" about this over the years, and frankly if they work with RB's they shrug their shoulders. Half the reason I've been o-ringing instead, which comes with its own set of issues.
Some days I think I've learned enough from The Skid Factory to rebuild and customize my whole Mustang... and then there's days when I watch the teachers learn and i think I better buy a new transmission and pay to have my engine rebuilt. Keep up the GREAT work guys!!
Robby seems like a sound dude! It's nice to see some one who appreciates good quality machining and design. Not just the standard "ooooo it's shiny so it must be good" I had wondered in the past about axial roller bearings as thrusts people always think they don't need something until they need it.
Absolutely sensational stuff...! What an absolute belter of a motor. Great to see masters at work who explain stuff in layman's terms without any smoke and mirrorsn or bullshit. Well shot and edited too. Great package, well done fellas...!
The copper/bronze gasket reminded me of the same trick done to my Kawasaki big bored bike back in the eighties, as no gasket existed for this mod at the time. I had a copper ring and groove in barrel, just annealed it and apply torque. Cant wait to see this engine in action, interesting build.
Awesome..your video quality and presentation is leaps and bounds from when you started. I had my engine geek fix this morning so thanks guys and well done
High performance build and … Al is most interested in getting a nice new ring compressor just like Robby’s. Good to have your priorities straight! 🙂 Good tools are important.
Cripes! CAD is almost at par with AUD, that is one heck of a crankshaft. I'm convinced you get what you pay for, but that crank costs more than most heaps I buy and drive 😂
Thanks for this video! 😊 A long long time ago (lol) I worked in an engine shop, and it makes my day to see Robbie doing his thing and handing out knowlede. Two dead set legends that don't talk any bullshit = ✔🖒
I pulled mine apart myself last week, engine out, valvesprings, studs, billet oil pump, HD timing chain billet sprocket, Full exhaust, stage 2 intercooler, air box, 1000cc injectors, external gate, fuel reg. gtx ii 3584 turbo 460 pump. Just dropped it off for the tune. Hoping it comes back 400kw on 98
Still love seeing a 3S-GTE in the opening credits every episode! We normally get forgotten by the world so it’s nice to see on my favorite show every week! Edit: I didn’t know Nitto made anything but tires until today! 🤯
Not the same Nitto, they just happen to have the same name, the tire company is Nitto Tire and the one here with the stroker kit is Nitto Performance Engineering
Just binge watched all 17 episodes of the bedford build. The most unusual thing about the build was a registered rm250 and a richard branson duck sanctuary
It's a Hybrid RM/RMX250. Millsi built it frame up and I rode it for a year or so then sold it back to him and he is re rebuilding it from frame up. Yes, Millsi is also an insane dirt biker. Not sure about the duck sanctuary but Branson does own an island near here.
There is a guy in WA that has manufactured a Alloy Barra block. Id love to see a build with that. The future of Barras will eventually have to be custom because they ain't making any more of them. (Wonder who has the original cast molds etc)
The conversions crack me up. Then again I'm an American engineer, so I live my life going between the units. So, 1.34 hp/kw, so 1340 hp. Also 0.220" is ~5.5mm at 0.040" is ~1mm. That's the easy off the cough number. Love the destroker. Cool build.
Well done fellas and as others have said, love the level of detail you go into in terms of degreeing in the cam and fire ring crush etc. Also awesome watchin Robbie go about his work.
I was about to doubt the choice of a stock single row timing chain, but this guy obviously knows his stuff, and if it was my engine and he said it was Ok, that’s good enough for me.

Love this and love the Barra though I don't understand why its being de stroked?? Nice work as always gent!

Not necessarily know more. Just something you may not have come across.
He’s like a big hairy kid in a billet candy store.
After 40 years in machine shops, one thing I've learned is you befriend and hang around with the old guys. Cuz they know ish that you don't!
Unfortunately now I'M the old guy.....
More Robbie please. He was great at explaining stuff.
Seeing a old Bedford pull on a commodore is priceless 👌😂🤣
Cracked me up aye 🤣
I used to deliver tv's in one of them a while ago (trying not to admit how old I am)!
Robby there the kind of guy who's forgotten more than I'll ever know. Good stuff.

no joke!
He's built like a brick shit house aye.

2k barra
"Garage built"

Thank you for letting me see all of the engine building.
I went in the van at powercruise yeah ur right the blokes insane wanting more power 😂😂
considering how good an average boosted barra sounds, i cannot wait for this thing to hit 10k with boost on, its going to sound incredible
😂
Wow, I am so out of my competence zone with this, Robbie taught me something new almost every time he spoke !
And that engine is GOOOORGEOUS
Please have more of big Robbie! His a natural.
Absolutely sensational stuff...! What an absolute belter of a motor. Great to see masters at work who explain stuff in layman's terms without any smoke and mirrorsn or bullshit. Well shot and edited too. Great package, well done fellas...!

Robbie looks like he can whoop some a$$! Bet hes messed some people up in his day. That hurricane episode is one of my favorites. Good onya Robbie.
Back in the day I reckon he would have caused a bit of carnage at the local pup 😂😉
