FERRARI FORD | ENGINE SWAP

[@lingyiiyang]

THAT VALVOLINE COMMERCIAL WAS SPOT ON!!! Best plug I have ever seen. Super short and just weaves in perfectly!

[@NarfBLAST]

I came to the the comments section just to see if I had actually seen that.

[@justincummins166]

It was also a throwback to the John Laws days, TV ads back in the mid 90s.

[@BennysCustomWorks]

The 30 sec version should be on most TV networks in Aus and possibly NZ by now

[@rhyswerner8749]

5:12 props to the editor for that sync with the music. Intentional or not that was really satisfying

[@BennysCustomWorks]

Gian on point :D

[@ChristopherHallett]

Quick tip everybody - if you want to know what to get Benny for Christmas, send him as much used coolant as you can get your hands on. Preferably in large, unwieldy, cumbersome containers that leak really badly. He fucken LOVES coolant!

[@wobblysauce]

Pre mix... ship him mostly water.

[@BennysCustomWorks]

You know me too well.

You know what Benny, no matter how many times I see you work on the Barra's, I love them each time. Always so enjoyable to watch. Keep up the great work as always!

[@BennysCustomWorks]

Thanks for watching

Great ep guys, beautifully shot and edited 👍

Love the torqued to spec spanner 🤣🤣🤣

Benny's had his elbows calibrated, see...

[@dallasvanwyk]

Shout out to the video editor for the rattle gun synced to the music at 5:12

[@kshepthedrummer]

I love it when people sync up whats going on with the music. Impacts, hammer hits, tossing parts, etc. Its such a tiny detail, but being a musician, it makes me super happy

[@jamesacland1041]

Woo hoo!!! Barra time! Roger that on the coolant tray, it always misses. I was expecting a socket or 2 to drop out when you took the stone tray off the underside. Shout out to Ford Play and the Fox Body Barra in the States.

[@BennysCustomWorks]

I put that tray on and am yet to loose a socket tbh :D

[@jamesacland1041]

@@BennysCustomWorks Edgar is only really just starting out on KZbin documenting his project, appreciate it if you give him a plug. I know he watches alot of Aussie Barra builds. Love ya work.

The Video, The F***ing good vibes music & cherry on the top a BARRA. How to start a Wednesday like a Dream. Thanks Mate. PS: Nice Commercial.

[@BennysCustomWorks]

Thanks mate

[@JonDaviesIsHere]

Came for the music, stayed for the swap. I think there's enough wrenching montage for a kicking 60 minute mix. You can thank me for that idea later ;)

[@BennysCustomWorks]

Most of those mixes loop the 8-10 seconds of footage for an hour :D

[@888johnmac]

benny about 1:30 ' no matter how big your tray is you always miss ' .. my drip tray is 2m by 2m ( it's a drip tray from under a 1000l IBC ) and yeah i've still missed

[@BennysCustomWorks]

Whole 6m floor could be a drain tray and it’d still escape

[@Mikki_Tu]

Benny, a spanner placed under the lower bolt in the bonnet hinge(either side) holds the bonnet up almost vertically, I have a broken 17mm Sidchrome ratchet spanner that's my go to.

[@BennysCustomWorks]

That’s a good idea, thanks.

[@user-pwfus]

This Ford Barra look's really nice for a stock engine with turbo I wonder how many other Ford cars this could easily swap into.

[@batchmotorsport]

Have a drink everytime Benny spills coolant

[@martinmiller7623]

Koolaid wouldn’t be to bad except for the sticky nature.😂

[@mattquinn6194]

What is that gold socket you are using? Looks to be a deep 10mm. What brand is it and whats your reason for using it over a chrome socket?

[@thebrelon]

the world needs a "super handy little tool" or "super handy little tip" t-shirt...

[@matthewpickering9270]

Awesome work

[@leobell1210]

Does the transmission need to have anything underneath it to prop it up while the engines not bolted to it or will it happily sit there?

[@BennysCustomWorks]

I sit a trolley jack under it

[@ReedyCreek28]

Original oil stig and rattle guns in time with the music.....#winning

No gasket just rvt on that intake?

[@BennysCustomWorks]

Yeah mate, the barra inlet gaskets are common as to blow out . Grey rtv is good enough for the Cresta + mustang so will be fine for the falcon :D

If you can't find anything, maybe try import monster.

[@Evanzie]

I see you use the same torque wrench I have when you torqued the dump pipe haha

[@rossmarzano]

I can't remember what brakes you have on the ute. Why not do a Ferrari swap for calipers?

[@BennysCustomWorks]

Already has 6 pot brembos

[@nickgrech9634]

Did you use a gasket as well as sealant for the inlet manifold?

[@BennysCustomWorks]

Sealant only. The stock gaskets blow out. The cresta has only ever had grey sealant on the flange, no gasket

Just finished a BF, had dramas removing and installing the engine, maybe a slightly shorter engine bay? and damaged the sensor at the back of the head

[@BennysCustomWorks]

Yes they’re a touch shorter. It’s super common to break the cyl head temp sensor too :(

Love the little pick to remove the plastic plugs. Not sure the one-piece manifold will hold up.

One piece manifold?

No such thing as useless information if it's usable information.... Keep up the awesome work Benny, but use a torque wrench more often please 😜

Do Barry’s have block drain plugs? Why doesn’t anyone drain coolant from the block before pulling motors? Good work aside from triggering me on all the spilled coolant 😂, gonna be a ripper!

Hey Benny, Just wanted to say there's been a noticable jump in the quality of the content. Well done mate. Also...do you need me to send you some coolant? No promises whether it'll just be cottee's.

The title got me clicking

[@BennysCustomWorks]

Ferrari ( wheels) :D

[@tba3900]

Why does everyone pull these out the hard way. Simple and easiest way drop the tailshaft, gearbox Mount. Unplug the wiring harness at ecu and fuse box , strut mounts, steering shaft and finally brake calipers. Place entire assembly on a pallet and unbolt k frame.lift the car off the K frame. Less than 1 hour the engine is out .

[@BennysCustomWorks]

Less than one hour to pull it out this way too . Also means no wheel alignment sand not touching trans / tailshaft. You still need to split the engine + trans then you need to assemble it all as an assembly before refitting so no time saved.

[@camerongb]

Man, the new torque wrenches are unbelievable! Actually has an announcer saying "Click" hahahaha

[@wicksgarage32]

you make a fake noise like your torque up turbo dump bolts but wonder why you have only one bolt on the exhaust… how about properly torquing bolts

[@BennysCustomWorks]

Possibly one bolt was removed before we started filming? Not everything you see on the internet is serious/ real. Show me one actual trade mechanic that uses a torque wrench on anything but building engines.

Man this bloke has a dig on almost every video. Always something negative to say but obviously keeps watching. Jealousy is a curse

The fact that people are interested in watching Benny work on his car and what he has to say/teach people. Why give him shit in every video otherwise?
