Minty's 2F comes to an end - we catch up with Mckinnon cruisers to talk Engine swap "BARRA"

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The great 2F Landcruiser Motor has gotten Minty has brought us some fantastic memories and has try to die on us more then once, but with a bit of love and welding we have have kept the 2F alive, but this time around we had to make a new decision..... Rebuild or Swap....
With help from Mckinnon cruisers, Sideshows Performance Wiring, Barra the World and friends and family we are going to take on the BARRA swap. But we are going to keep it simple!

    I would always stay with Toyota, since Ford has a horrible reputation. But it seems like youre already too deep in the swap. I hope you are lucky with rhe engine and dont get too many Problems. I am keen to see the process of an Engineswap in a 40 Series. Would love to drop a 1hz or a 1hdt in a 40 one day.

    Hopefully, we don't have too many issues. The Ford Barra motor is Renound for being bulletproof and getting a million kms. I hope this is the case for us, too.

    I’m seriously looking in to doing this conversion in my hj60. Though I’m not sure if I want turbo or NA. Watching you do the conversion will hopefully answer the few questions I have.

    It all comes down to you are after and how much money you are well to spend. I'm just after a Touring Cruiser is the NA should be mire then enough for us.

    Awesome decision thanks Jase! Looking forward to watching this. I’ll be really keen to hear the pluses and minuses of the swap (low end torque?). Also will it plug straight in to your previous H55 swap or does the trans need to be moved? Thanks for your time!!

    Thank mate, we will be sharing all the small issues and wins we have a long way. I'm lead to believe they have good low end torque.

    I realize Ford barra is from Ford Australia… I’m in the States, and up here FORD=Found On Road Dead… just sayin’ … why not stay Toyota?

  • @glenadolph

    Interesting choice. Please explain how you came to your decision to swap in the barra. I wanted to swap in a diesel into my 40 and stay with Toyota. It was suggested that I use a 13, 14, or 15b and stay away from 1KZ. I would have liked a 15bt without electronics, but the were expensive. I found plenty of 14b’s for cheap and plan to add the turbo later on. Anyway, I thought it would be simple and straightforward being all Toyota, but swaps are never easy. Please go into detail of the hurdles you have to cross with clearence and compatibility issues. Keep up the good work.

    That would be an awesome build, I do love the 1UZ but getting very hard and expensive to find, let alone get parts in Australia.

    A Barra is an Australian made 6 cylinder Ford motor from the falcon range. They are a very strong motor with the turbo version producing huge numbers.
