Burdo he should thank his lucky stars to have met you you are very skilled mechanic don't under sell yourself what a talent 👏 🙌 ❤
Crystal clear Instructions from the master. “See this? Don’t F##ken touch it”
Got it 😂
😂
Berto - this bloke is going places - i hope this channel - throws more work than you can handle !
Thanks mate!
13:34 Berto pressuring you to get on the tools 😂
Burto knows his sh!t inside out !!! Hands on deck always
Great episode boys all the best !
Thanks mate!
Love learning anything like this. Good work guys
GREAT work
It wasn’t grating it was great! Lol 😅
Thanks for watching mate!
I see the earlier crash was some how blessing in disguise for the conversion. Love 80's, great video.❤.
Nice progress gents. Enjoying the episodes of this build. 👍
Thanks 👍
Great choice of work light using the Hardkorr U-Lite.
13:31 lefty loosey, righty tighty
Barra the world I burto at a time
Could birdo' be the next Aussie Icon?
Paul hogan? Steve Irwin or Russell coight ?
Would love to see Russell Coight in an episode either 4 wheeling or assisting Birdo in the workshop. Would be a great teaching aid for us all.
I think you guys may have forgotten to drill and tap the turbo drain before the sump was put on. All good but easier with the sump off. Enjoying the build so far!
Great job by Rick; I trust that he's paid well :)
As a Kiwi car guy, this is the most Aussie video title ever. Love it. I miss my BA. Also, what do you guys call the head of the wrench you were using at 19:47?
Happy trails, Cowpoke
I like the comment “it’s all coming together now” camera pans around and there is still sh!t everywhere lol
Great video
😂
Getting into the 'more money than sense' territory here.....
Burdo is a boss, so good having TT on the camera etc and getting good shots of the build. You see it so often when fellas try and film and swing spanners the really interesting work often doesn't get filmed simply because it's so hard to do both (more so when covered in grease and oil)
Thanks mate, appreciate it! Yeah very difficult to do a good job of doing both
Berto the legend!!!
I appreciate you’re editing work. Always good music, never too loud 👍👍
Great episode! Burto is super entertaining!
I appreciate it!
Nice one guys, its looking good
Thanks mate!
Gday, absolutely top job Burdo, mongrel job doing them valve springs, keen for next week’s instalment now, cheers
Thanks 👍
“I’m pulling the coils out”
“Yeah, do they know that?”
Hahahaha pisser, who let that diesel tard around all those wires. 😅❤
What a great episode the content is absolutely amazing its great to look at how these motors work and the complexity of that Barra its fascinating how it works to make so much power a master 4x4 guy with a master mechanic a great combination well done guys a perfect marriage ha ha 😂😂 keep the incredible content coming 😂
Thanks mate!
3.5 hours just to do the valve springs while it's on the engine? Yes it would have been quicker to remove the head but then you are up for a head resurface and head bolts too.
I used to do this sort of work on old cast iron engines (Valiant sixes to be precise) because the valve guide seals used to dry out. On them you could remove the head, clean it up an only be up for a head gasket. You never replaced the head bolts and you could get away without resurfacing the head if it was cold when you pulled it apart.
Not with modern engines though.
Really enjoying this build Tyler and Burdo, can't wait for next Sunday
Thanks mate!
i am currently in the process of doing my 80 barra swap, and boy you guys make it look like a breeze, and looks so much fun, keep up the good work, ill be following the build 🤙
Personally I don't see the point. It doesn't matter how much hp you have. It's traction that's get you up track, not speed. I 1HZ will get you any where you need to go in the bush. And will do the speed limit all day.
Good one boys. Finger's crossed its not a dejavue of the Patrol engine. 🤞🤞
Built 2 of these motors and doing valve springs without removing the head is the worst job ever. Super stressful
Did Burdo work for Kmart Auto in 1985 at Port Adelaide?
Burdo needs some work benches to get him up off the ground, and king chrome sponsorship like all the other channels. At least he would use the tools.
very interesting and informative video ive just gota say .. but Burdo what legend at his mechanical know-how i hope he's getin paid top dollar to do this ;) ... btw that why getting a motor total recondition cost so much ... like i got my 1kz-te recon for $9k 👍so it should be good for another 500 thousand km now ... anyhow big thumbs up guys
This is by far the most expensive "while we're here may as well" I have ever seen.
Top content, leaves you hanging for the next instalment. Funny and entertaining also educational.
Much appreciated!
Most Land Cruiser owners use 1HD-FTE 4.2 24V Intercooler Turbo Diesel engine. This engine is super powerful.
Barras can make 1100nm at the wheels at olny 3000rpm @ only 15psi, ie, enough to break all the cvs. How much more torque do you want ? I have run 24psi in mine, a FG falcon, and it can be way too much on the treet for street tyres - traction is the limiting factor.
If you wan to go all out, street driven partially grouted factory block and head barra can make 2500hp at the wheels.
Do service on zf with it out lot easier and make get a good tuner for it
Yeah good point! Might do that before we chuck it in
should have sorted the turbo drain out while sump was off. also you can pull harmonic balancer off with a 20 buck puller and 3 little d shackles with bolts to suit them. looking mint anyway
Cheers for the tip
Proper mates :)
Another good build video. (Thankfully no Landcruiser bagging in this one!) but I do miss your family trips content.
More coming soon 👌
That bro can swing spanners.......
Assets to the show, make him famous.
Looks like a big build, hope it goes all well 🕶🤙
I've been running my turbo Barra with zf 6 speed in my 80 for 2 years solid as a daily. Loving it so far. Only thing I wish I did differently would be I'd rather a manual. The auto is built and tuned but not a fan. But mate make sure you upgrade the shafts down the line.
Old mate deserves an all expenses paid holiday i feel. The amount of work he does is impeccable. Love the content as always Tyler. Cheers Bro
We need some Berto merch - fuck yeah mate
Great video!
I'm doing up a 1985 XF Ford with the EFI 4.1 litre motor. I'll have to go through a similar process rebuilding the motor to freshen it up.
Thank you for the inspiration!
J’adore tes vidéos, ton collègue a beaucoup de talent. Dommage que je ne comprenne pas l’anglais, j’adorerais comprendre ce qu’il explique lors des modifications. 👍🏼
Love ya work Burto!!!
I give the Barra 6 months max
Hey guys did you think about an FTE conversion at all?
Ftes are overpriced asf and don't present any value for money
Main reasons were a good low KM FTE is nearly 20k, we would still be stuck with the cruiser 4 speed auto. Wanted to keep the car auto and the ZF 6 speed auto are very good strong box. And wanted a powerful petrol to have some fun in and beach runs etc, FTE would be more suited if we were going for a tourer I reckon. Plus barra conversion gives a more content and I was interested in doing an engine conversion from a different brand car as haven't done that before
Nick from Nissan is killing it. You might have to start calling him Hollywood soon.
I can't think of anything more ironic than putting a ford engine in a Toyota.
Wow,lot of work.lucky u got a half decent mechanic.😂
Great series, technical info, comedy and entertainment.
Thank you!
Yewww up the barra
Burto is a crack up!
Poor 1fz 😢
Really makes you appreciate the time and effort mechanics go into working on your car, their time is worth every dollar for the skills they have. Great job Burto, looking fantastic, can’t wait to see the end result.
Glad you do appreciate it. Too many times I have been told my job is easy and any monkey could do it!
Appreciate it mate!
again,,why the fk do you want a 1k hp 4x4.??..parthetic.. 250hp is plenty.. its not a fkn drag car..99% of the time you drive in the city,, again, i have 700nm. in a std 4.2tdi..not jap or yank..i thought you,d have enough subs,,to do a 10k 1k hp barra,, or would that lose subs..@@TylerThompson90
funny, toyotas have a centre diff, useless lsd, & then, people fit lockers. seems pointless. hell waste of time & money for a mall crawling auto..but then, people buy 79 series, then spend 40k on them, to fix them.. must be a toyota thing.. mates 80 series, 4.2tdi, does everything he needs, std..2'' lift,, but then again, he did rip the brkts off the front diff,,cos they dont twist.. toyota thing.. he told me to drive it,,id buy one,, no fkn way,,i know there faults.. @@TylerThompson90
centre diff,, constant 4x4,, really still only 2wd.. 2.5, if your lsd is still good.. 4wd on road, is not needed.. @@TylerThompson90
"Just nipped it gently with the rattle gun" - brilliant!
I like burntoe he’s riot great addition to the channel 👍👍
And maybe u cud of done pistons rings 🫣🫣🫣
Awesome work. Tyler what's Burdo's background story, while he comes across as very 'easy going', he is clearly a skilled mechanic.
Been a mechanic for 10-12 years now, loves his 4wds and cars
Berto's Backyard Mechanical
Make sure it stays a off road 4wd and not a 1/4mile drag car
I don’t think the Barra will be better on fuel than the 1fz . My turbo Ute averages about 17L/100 - 12L/100 driving like grandma . My old fzj80 wasn’t bad on fuel turbo 1fz also wasn’t to bad on fuel . Recommend a ZF tune the factory tune is dog doo . Still something different and interesting. 👌
This FZ got around 22L per hundred on road driving, shit power and auto box. ZF auto box will be much better, turbo barra much better power and mates that have them get around 15L per hundred on road
I guess it depends on tyre size and dead weight bolt ons . Your old 1fz sounds like it wasn’t healthy at 22L that’s more like fzj105 fuel figures , being a heavier car . A stock fzj80 will average about 15L/100ks . Agreed on the ZF a massive improvement . Very interested to see the end result you may have started a new trend 😂
This is the new Skid Factory
Need a Burdo T Shirt. What a boss!! Great vid and team guys. Legends!!🤙
Thanks mate!
Any way to sell the Barra from territory
to me. Am Sydney.
Going the build my patrol
Work shop too dark. Hard to see. Am electrician. Could install a light to suitable filming 😊
the leprechaun is a great asset to the show
TT at his best, no BS bout anything. burdo is a great addition to the channel, also no BS. so refreshing
Appreciate it mate!
Did you have to tap a thread in the hose retainer on the water pump? Did mine last week and had to tap it, piece of junk
Umm not from my memory burto didn't
You’ve got to love burdo and his antics 😂😂 especially when he’s doing all you’re mechanical stuff for free 😂👍🏽
Can’t wait to see this thing on the road 🤙🏽
Not for free
@@gregdogg10 😆😂👍🏽
this channel without burto is like seinfeld without kramer…..i hope berto is a million bux an episode?
Go the school teacher! 👍
Cool Ep guys
Burdo is the man, keep up the good work boys!
Cheers!
great video. love Berto. just great for the channel.
Much appreciated!
Crazy not to do head studs while your at it
Won't really need them for the power/boost we are running. If it lifts the head worst case then we will just do it in the car
Shud u do valve seals to ??
No idea haha
Old mate needs a work bench
Just bought one the other day, plus got some fresh tools and more benches coming soon 😁
@TylerThompson90 hopefully not Big W tools mate🤣
Mate it’s not just about horse power it’s about having a rebuild in general those engines are clapped
Those engines are only good if you basically strip it all and put 100% new parts in almost the whole dog the block is strong ect but everything else is dog shit $20 000 car brand new
Would have been better off with a 4.5 or v8 from a landcruiser in this case
Nope. FG falcons with Barras in Melb with 950kkm on the clock, engines still going just fine.
Barra powered taxis in Melb typically are sold @ 1Mkms, cleaned up, then solf for $4k and the new owners love them.
150kkm on a Barra is low ks, just run in.
@@tysononeil478nope, not even close. Barras in Taxis typically run tp 1Mkms, and are then sold in good condition.
Bit slack Tyler, you should be doing the cleaning work, bucket some diesel a tooth brush, bottle brush's etc, filming can be done on a tripod and where's Demi, she wrecked it, should be rolling up the sleeves too! In all this while Burto's doing the mechanics, could have sand blasted the transfer case or at least degreased it with some elbow grease, re coated it, same with the timing cover, looks terrible all pitted and oxidized.
I never understand why people who take things out never clean parts or housings, when its out, too simple! the 80 deserves better. Spending all this money and don't give it the care it needs to make it last a life time, just a pet peave of mine, with tubers! It really makes a difference afterwards and while ya dont look at it while driving, imo ya feel very satisfied when ya have cleaned up these parts better than from the Factory, they last and are protected better its an investment in your investment, def need to put Tyler to more work, he has to start at the bottom and work his way up and prep work cleaning is the most important aspect, but also the most time consuming prob why ya ignored it! but also where ya learn the most, but as usual guys good work, its coming together, still disappointed its not a Toyota motor, I know its not cheap but an FT is cheaper than a FTE even that would have appeased the Toyota gods, now walk the plank, will it bow, be reliable or have another off road wreck at Bunnings, that's what happens when ya upset the Toyota gods, anything anywhere, you never know, haha, still its good content enjoying something different, Burto makes it great as usual. cheers guys 🤘
I hate it when people bolt brand new shiny parts onto a dirty old motor/gearbox 🤣 At least hit it with some degreaser and a wire brush first so it's not covered with two decades worth of dirt!
Disagree. You are missing the point mate, The number 1 requirement of this build is a quality video, the secondary is actually a functioning car. having TT behind the camera is way more valuable in the bigger picture to get a decent video. Yeah, if it was just these two blokes in a shed doing a swap, everyone needs to jump in. But yeah makes me cringe seeing the transfer case/motor being stripped down without being cleaned properly first.
My pet peeve is when people basically call me lazy because I'm paying someone to do mechanical work (who is way more skilled and funny on camera then me) and dismiss the huge amount of hours it takes editing, filming, running social medias, phone calls to sponsors and companies, the extra work I do for companies myself on weekends to pay for how much these builds and episodes cost, thumbnails etc etc etc to get a quality video out every single week. I can't run a successful UA-cam channel and business myself, that's why I pay people to help. If I'm not there helping I'm over on the computer working my ass off to create and run and manage all this content
I also don't really see much point when we are extremely busy, spending hours cleaning a component that is under a car, above a crossmember and getting caked in mud and sand anyway to never be seen again. We did consider sand blasting the timing cover but never got around to it, figured this 80 will cop a built barra at some point anyway to handle bigger power
Long winded shit talk
