Broken green tops & building engines - Ford Territory AWD Barra build ep. 5 | fullBOOST

Tony gets to the bottom of his green top Barra issues and starts building the new forged Ford six engine.
__________________
The Aussie Ford Territory was one of the most popular SUVs when it was on sale largely due to it being powered by the Barra six cylinder engine. This is the AWD version so it's the perfect platform for a sleeper style build project. We follow Tony from Michael Js & Son as he gives the old family Territory a much needed overhaul from front to back as well as a much needed turbo upgrade.

Like to know why mechanics still charge like a wounded bull, when they have always had air tools to use and also now with power assisted tools, its so much quicker to fix basic mechanical problems, no more just using spanners and ratchets ,those days are gone almost, so why are they charging so much that's what i would like to know people? I understand they went to trade school to get qualified, but the schools are free, not like your going to uni for a degree in engineering or to be a lawyer or Dr, yet mechanics will charge like over $100.00 per hour, which is so wrong? But in saying this, not all mechanics are rip-off's, some do the right thing and those who do, will always have customers coming back for more work? Also i understand that your paying for experience ,but if so then go to dany engines if you want a drag engine package or others who do just that specialists in various mechanical expertise and not your every day mechanical workshop?

Loving the series! Just drove my 2005 Ghia +t 6 hrs yesterday. Packed to the hilt with adults and dog . Plenty of power when needed! Never even came close to having to flat foot it ! Loving my turbo territory! We averaged 10.8 lts per 100 on e10 ! Would have been nearly 3 t gross weight! Not bad !

[@mattyp355]

Tony going full Avi Yemini, just keep him away from chopping boards 😂 love the series

[@mazcatii]

I'm just here for the beards 👌😎

[@needmoreboost6369]

I’d have to say more than half of the higher km engines have tight gudgeon pins especially the old commodore v6 they are usually just gummed up and brake cleaner will free them but it’s definitely worth a quick hone for lil more oil gap if they are out and gapping the ring’s anyway

[@ytthecommunistplatform.2675]

When you buy a gt you always pull them apart to check them . Mine had stuffed valves and the bearings needed replacing . Its a gamble just chucking things in .

[@plumbs7199]

Ring gaps too!

[@pablowvangreenlow7430]

Any second hand motor you want to push 500kw from you would absolutely pull it right down check block and bore head and surface New set of rings and bearings Building engine's anyone can do but doing it right is a art .

[@grimreaper6112]

No 40 grit hone with your hand bit of wd40 new rings off you go thats what backyard Bob told me he is a engine builder.

[@Doc_in_the_carpet_truck]

Tony on point at the start of the video🤣 and how good did the fish chips look at the end 👍be willing to drive from Keysy to Fairfield for food like that!!!! Gonna have to divulge the name for me please🙏🍻

YTFB supporting from Rotorua New Zealand 😎🤘❤️ merry Xmas to yous and the team .

[@albertt7784]

Legendary ford reliability!

[@sidbobby3233]

Happy Xmas lads & all that Bolloxs love the the series

[@7071t6]

So there's a good idea for all the ring manufactures mark them with fluro paint, that way anyone will know where they are seated on the piston?

[@IronLungProductionsOfficial]

Be awesome if you could make it selectable between AWD and RWD!🙂

[@b_for_brett]

Territory AWD setup isn’t quite fancy enough for that option. Not necessarily a bad thing either, less crap to go wrong

[@IronLungProductionsOfficial]

@@b_for_brett yeah I wasn't sure if it was a stock feature or not but totally agree! One less thing to stuff up or leave ya scratching head looking for problem for months 😅

[@brettus9115]

@@IronLungProductionsOfficial The awd diesel variant uses a solenoid to engage clutches in the transfer case to turn the front drive shaft so it's an adjustable TC iow. The awd barra models SX-SY2 use the NV125 TC which has a planetary gear set (68% rear/32% front split) so I assume the diesel TC is something like the ATC400 or ATC500 model (clutches and no planetary) case...

[@jamesphillips7602]

@@brettus9115 can you run a dummy shaft on a turbo territory and disconnect the front tail shaft or does the load on one side of the T/C kill it? I have a AWD Turbo but want to turn it into 2WD.

[@nate-tz8sx]

A blown up barra no way ....the internet said they're good I mean what's next a blown up k series?😂

[@silkysixx]

The smartest, most capable, and most experienced engine builders can not let the ring gap alignment thing go. I was yakking with an ancient engine man - who's built race engines for Jim Richards, Bathurst cars, etc - while he put pistons in an engine and he very clearly, very simply explained to my dumb brain why it doesn't matter at all, because they start spinning at different rates as soon as you fire the engine up. He then described his preferred alignment before carefully lining up the rings on a piston and put it into the engine 🤣🤣🤣 It just feels too unnatural to slap them on any which way. I'm convinced it can't be done.

[@silkysixx]

@@Low760 yeah, they do - that's also so crazy when you think about it, isn't it? We all know it makes no difference, but we all do it and we all tell everybody else to do it.

[@wobblysauce]

Rolled snake eyes on that last one.

Nice video

[@seanb250]

Yeah lots of phosphorus in bird shit 👍 great for your lawn too 😁

Merry Christmas gent's

[@Gh0st0071]

Fullboost, can you ask him if they have a set of spare stock cam shafts and cam shaft solenoids? My Terry need some This is an awesome series! Awesome terry!

[@7071t6]

Did they balance the pistons with rod and bearings etc all completed piston assembly or not, Or just edited all out?

[@SloppyMechanics]

first

[@DOCTRJ]

Were the rings gapped big enough for the boost level might have jammed in the cylinder

[@fullboost]

The engine never saw any boost.

[@DOCTRJ]

Might have been tight new pistons and needed some boost to push them down untill the block heated up, or wrist pin like he said

[@fullboost]

Being a second-hand green top who knows it's history it didn't come out of a running car.

[@pioneer5555]

I may have missed this but where did the new block come from?

[@fullboost]

It's the original NA engine from the car.

[@pioneer5555]

@@fullboost Thanks for the reply. btw I'm loving this series!

[@bradcross2]

you wonder how a windage tray can rust when its hanging out in the sump

[@seanb250]

They mean when it’s sitting on a shelf or generally exposed to the environment 👍
