The Ford Barra engine has become Australia's most popular six and with good reason. In stock form they are cheap to source and have loads of potential. We caught up with Dandy Engines recently who were engine dyno tuning Corey Jackson's Barra equipped with forged billet internals, a huge Precision turbo and FuelTech EFI. The engine will be fitted to Corey's Ford FG Falcon.

Tech Tip: AN sizes are divisors of a 1/16th of an inch for the hose size. It doesn't take in account for the ID of a fitting though. Ie. AN6 = 6/16 = 3/8 hose. AN10 = 10/16 = 5/8 hose. AN16 = 16/16 = 1 inch hose

Variable cam timing is something you definitely want to keep. There's some funky stuff you can do with it and makes for less lag etc.

Higher compression helps with lag also. The FGXR6T has a low 8.9:1 cr. All 2021 OEM Tunbo cars run 11:1 cr.

@COSpecV420 10 ай бұрын

Problem is thar you start running into phaser control when you exert crazy backpressure or charge air pressure on the backside of the valves. Plus, you're fighting higher spring rates. Oil pressure can only exert so much pressure on the vanes in the phasers.

It’s awesome seeing what some of these builders are coming up with, especially in recent times with the wider availability of E85 and race fuels. I’d love to see someone take a completely different approach and screw something together with just one limitation: it can only run on 91 octane, proper dog shit fuel. Yes, that will limit things like boost and compression, but I’ve never seen anyone find the true limit of the power potential of the petrol your mum runs in her Camry.

Hey guys, great vid thanks heaps. One quick question, a mate of mine is putting an inter-cooler in his project car BUT because of room restraints the cooler needs to go in what I'm calling upside down, so the in/out are now at the top NOT at the bottom where I believe there meant to be, am I right or it just doesn't matter. I thought the hot air had to come IN the bottom and rise through the cooler, cross over and OUT the other side at the bottom to get excellent cooling. Seeya Rob
