BarraRx7 Member 46 Member For: 6y 2d Posted 17/12/18 03:34 PM Share Posted 17/12/18 03:34 PM Hello everyone, I see there’s a few Americans doing Barra swaps, so I guess I’m here for info, help, and just general discussion. I have an FC rx7 that I was doing a 4g63 in from my old mirage / evo 1 that went 8.9@155 in the quarter. Since working on the new chassis I came across a Barra and have decided to take the 4g out and drop the ford in. I’m looking for 1500 hp at some point. I plan to start with the Borg 80 mm turbo I currently have . The rx7 has a power glide and ford 9” in it as well as a 25.5 cage. I also already have the glide to Barra adapter. I’m looking at spool imports destroker kit and would like any input on their products. The other things I’m looking for are cams, vernier gears, valves, gasket kits, timing chain and other odds and ends I don’t have access too. Thanks in advance for the help!

His landline phone no. is 02 8665 5889 this is the best person to speak to for all your barra engine information, you could also visit his youtube channel were he has techtips and products on show. 1500hp wont be a problem with this engine as we have quite a few making that in australia, we even have dion from dynomite performance making over 2000hp.

BarraRx7 Member 46 Member For: 6y 2d Posted 20/01/19 10:08 PM Author Share Posted 20/01/19 10:08 PM Hmm I’m doing full fill on the block, ibeam rods, and bullet pistons with upgraded pins. Maybe I won’t take it quite that far 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
