- It's time for Turbo Taxi to re-enter the fray. We've tasked Dandy Engines with the job of machining and assembling the bottom end of our Barra engine so we can finally go 10s with Turbo Taxi.

Can we all just thank the boys at Dandy Engines for letting ALL you UA-cam boys through this year. Not just yourself Scotty, but Fullboost, Skid Factory, all of you that come in there and stick cameras in their faces. 😎👍
Clearly, they have good marketing and comms skills to go with their technical prowess.
As Scotty said, they are true professionals that us mortals love to watch ply their craft
It is called free advertising numb nuts - HA. But - yes - great to see inside the workshop.
Frank is an absolute master. He helped the Skid Factory with their supercharged big block crown. Bloke knows his stuff. Cant wait to see how this barra turns out scotty🍻
I'm a qualified automotive machinist (I don't work in the trade anymore,) did my trade school at Kangan Batman in Richmond, and I think these guys are doing an awesome job, can't fault them. I'd take my engine there and be confident after watching this.
Impressive. Good to know that we still have a pool of committed machinists and technicians here in Oz.
I never get tired of watching engine machining videos like these- at the very least, you know what you’re getting for your hard earned.
Frank’s explanation of the various processes (aside from the secret squirrel stuff) is very informative and easy to understand for a dummy like me.
See also "Steve Morris Engines " for engine blocks and heads being made from a block of metal.
We do appreciate Scotty and his ability to build an engine and go fast, that's why we are here! Dandy Engines are pro's and it's great to see people really enjoying what they do. So excited for turbo taxi, it's what got me hooked on Carnage! Great camera work Matt.
This engine just went 1000rwhp in the MX5 - thanks Dandy Engines.
And now running low 8s on the quarter.
Absolutely meticulous. Really fascinating vid, thanks for showing us the process.
"half time change sides" Rodney would be proud.
Nice to see one of the boys sporting a GEMRACING shirt too!
I'm surprised anyone remembers Rodney's farting competition
@@STREETMACHINETV puerile comedy is in my veins. "oh and she shit the bed!"
Just about to say same thing about the gemracing tee.
Next time someone asks why an engine costs alot of money, just show them this video. Awesome work 👏 👌
So great to have new Turbo Taxi content.
A shifter has to make an appearance putting this back together. Good work Scotty and the boys
Another ripper episode scotty! I'm always learning and following along with the builds and love watching the dandy boys work their magic 👍
Another exceptionally built engine from Dandy Engines
HI ALL
Scottie looks like ya enjoying the THRUSTING MOTION lol thankS LOU YOUR a motor MASTER love ya work young fellow lol keep fighting the good fight brother can we go for the fastest full fare taxi ride in the world ??
Looking at their workshop and their high quality equipment that they use, It's a no brainer where to take your engine if it needs machining or rebuild. Thanks for sharing Scotty
Always great to see Frank in a video.. Great work Scotty
really nice work with the engine Scotty, it has been given the royal treatment thats for sure
Epic work and equipment.
Hi Scotty another awesome Video the boys at Dandy Engines build killer Engines 👌
Thanks for getting this video made. What a Masterclass 🔥
Awesome vid Scotty and cheers to Gus and the boys at Dandy Engines for letting you film there. Legends 👏
If the taxi don't do 10s now, it never will. Thanks Scotty for giving it the best crack yet
cant wait to see taxi back up and running, taxi started it all for me...
Lou and Mike sorted me out with my Pontiac 400 build. Dandy Engines is the only place to go. Awesome work 🤓👍
Barra the world..... one fine engine there scotty. Awesome Built block by dandy engines...i currently own about twenty Barras love them ....to death
Buggered if I could keep a straight face with a the double entendres flying about, Damn I needed a laugh.
Gas Barra goodness! :-)
Getting the engine machined and speced out properly including assembly makes such a massive difference in performance wise. Should be fun Scotty !
Lets just take a moment to appreciate that Zon fellas haircut first of all and also his attention to detail 👍
I’m only 5 minutes into this video and had to pause to write this 😁
OLD WORLD CRAFTSMANSHIP BUT WITH MODERN TECH .IUSED TO REBUILD ENGINES AT DANDY COUNCIL IN THE 80S TIMES HAVE CHANGED .WHAT A GREAT JOB .LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING THE END RESULT
i was always told to do rods/pistons one at a time,
not because it's fast,
but in case you get a problem where the crank won't spin.
instead of chasing the problem rod set up to 16 times (in the case of a w 16)
it's apparent then and there
It's a good point
That was a nice big chunk of learning thanks Scotty ❤
So good to see the entire machining process well done 😊
I really enjoyed watching this one Scotty,
Always interesting when you can see behind closed doors.
Let's see you get the Taxi running 8's now.
Haha, 10s will be fine
@@STREETMACHINETV think outside the Square
19:32 Triple S Datsun Turbo. Scotty slappin ish together. What an acronym!!! Sometimes its like the lottery with them backyard ghetto EBing techniques. Hell, if them diggle balls hang together, I say, more power to ya!!!
What an awesome video ! Great camera work with amazing views, tech stuff and details well explained (not too much but just enough), spiced with some matching music - just wow ! Great entertainment and teachful at the same time, love it ! 🖤
Best engine assembly I have seen on video 👌
Good to see pre heating the block . A lot of the time painting a used engine people complain about longevity.
In reality though no matter how many times you surface wipe the block the casting is porous and will release old oils when heated. Makes a big difference with how long the paint lasts after opening the pores up.
It's amazing how much moisture came out of a block that I believed was dry
@@STREETMACHINETV it's nuts hey it'll look dead clean and then as soon as the heat torch gets on it , goes from grey to a blue/black .
What a video mate, This would have to be one of your best. What a professional outfit. The intent with your videos Scotty is to show how to do it on a budget and you kill it. This Engine is going to crank. Cant wait to see you assemble the rest then finally quick time.
Love there work and workmanship there built killer engines... love the footage...
Very informative video thanks Scotty and the Dandi boys.
More of these types of videos please, if possible!
That Taxi will fly! Must be ready to do a 10 second pass
Awesome video, I did see that steve Morris engines is making some Barra stuff
Nice to see Turbo Taxi back mate! Awesome stuff
man jake was flexing at the start of assembly just flippin that rod
Wow! Such a beaut of a block!
I'm your brother from the states and I really enjoy watching all your builds and all the knowledge you give us keep up the good work let's go Dandy engines.
Can't beat a good honing job😁
Great video Scotty and thanks for Dandy Engines showing us some of their magic.
Great video, makes you appreciate what the machine shop puts into the build. Pity you couldn't get the sump modded for the crank girdle; I had to modify the girdle on my Jeep 4.6L stroker but it all worked in the end.
This is a very good video Scotty. I do enjoy your non nonsense, everyman approach to speed machinery and with more expertise on this video, more learning.
Scotty needing a girdle, who would've thunk it? The man is round n proud PMSL
Got to leave some chicks for the rest of you
That ring gap sounded like the average “off the shelf” ring packages i used to get and the main reason i switched to file fit for everything now
I like the Gemracing shirt.........
Kind have mix feeling about Taxi new engine it Soooo nice the boys at Danndy have done a mega job !!!! (And Scootie still prob gonna blow it up )
But it's kinda like you first child leaving home Taxi all grown up and running 10 's you feel there nothing left in life to do !!!!
And no adjustable spanners were hurt in the making of this episode !!!
9s coming in hot!
even 10 years ago they were top fucken blokes. I bought a old 308 with some work done to it by dandy engines.
went for a test drive while it was still in the car, loved it, 2 weeks later it was out of the car with a refresh, on a engine stand ready to load up on a Saturday morning at dandy engines. (where the customers new engine was)
not only the professionalism but i got a full tour of the work shop being a machinist that likes cars
was a good day
I have a barra now but ive been going to dynomite in footscray.. Id go dandy engines but Dynomite are around the corner from me and also top blokes with a great setup
Love it, top stuff seeing the experts at work
best thumb nail ever ..... the smile says it all 🤣🤣
No shifters were harmed in the building of this Barra! 🤣🤣🤣👍
Great video Scotty.
They’ve obviously watched Uncle Tony’s video on painting a block 😝
Carnage videos are always the highlight of my week
Cracking video really enjoyed watching the equipment in action, and yes how busy are they !! Far out..
Old mate straight onto lubing up those studs as soon as you throw that girdle down....efficient 👌
Can't wait to see the turbo taxi run again.
Very nice. The girdle delete will save weight.awesome stuff
Very impressive work!
Great video, it all seems very technical when the professionals do it, not like the way it's done in my garage. Can't wait for the next video now...
No ‘expert’ comments on here when it’s Dandy building it’s great nobody talks shit 😂👌🏻
Dandy the only place to go 😎
Awesome Video!! Great work as always from the team at Dandy Engines!!!
Awesome mate
Don’t be so hard on yourself Scotty. You built a killer engine in that MX5 in your shed with hand tools that held up the 1/4mile.
Well done
I thought you were getting rid of the LPG on turbo taxi?
Great work Scotty.
Cheers Pat
Awesome access, learnt a lot
It’s amazing how many lpg haters are out there I’m fairly sure it’s because they’ve never been able to make power out of lpg or given up after the first attempt it does work there’s just alot of mucking around with the problems that occur with it and to get around those issues is quite difficult sometimes but it works fine when all the problems are rectified and oh funny as I was told that 24thou ring gap was way to big for my lpg turbo six that I put together 2 years ago and look out the professional engine builders are going the same gap for the lpg 😉when you’re shoving in 20psi plus and a fuel that burns nice and hot we need ring gap
All I can say is good on you for being persistent and sticking to your oringinal goals Scott hope it all goes as planned and you go faster than you intended cheers Anthony
Great video mate
Why is it that none of the Supercar, Australian GT Championship or Australian Porsche Carrera Cup teams use Dandy engines?
sorry for giving you a bit of "stick" for talking too much mate a while ago. I do really enjoy your videos
Dam this was a satisfying video!
My ex used to love a good hone. Hahaha. Thrusty thrusty.😂😂😂. Good work dandy engines
Great video.
Great video on the process
Turbo Taxi - NUTS
Pure !
Scotty mate you need to get the head decked as well otherwise the gasket can only take so much distortion etc. :)
Watch the next video
The professionals make it look easy, don't they?
It is in spec now. 👍
Dandy Engines 💪👌✅
Oh…I thought you were done with LPG. Okay then. Let’s go!
Question for Frank. Does the factory use this profileometer tech to attain maximum ring seal on the engines coming down the assembly line?
Nice work
Shit hot Scotty !!! Gonna be off chops 🍻
a lot of thrusting went into this build hahaha
Frank is awesome
Going LPG again hey. Fingers crossed for you she runs some numbers
Always good to see these lads practicing their art.
May I ask, if you removed the gurdle which was put in place because of the main stuff length, how did you get around the main studs being too long?
It turns out someone grabbed the head studs by mistake
@@STREETMACHINETV "someone" ? Hmm, haha!
Interesting process watching this engine build, how much would this cost to do.. im thinking of getting mine barra done too..
Hi Scotty love the vid watching the boys build the Barra.Just wondering how much that would cost to have a motor like this one built.
That's a question for Dandy Engines
Engine builder: 😐
Scotty: 😜
