The Barra machine is a family of cylinder block-six straight & amp; The 3V V8 engine manufactured by Ford Australia between 2002 and 2016. This machine is unique to Ford vehicles manufactured in Australia and developed and manufactured in Geelong, Victoria. "Barra" was first introduced in BA Falcon, named after the code name "Barramundi" used during the development of the BA renewal engine. The three valve version of the 5.4 V8 is also labeled as a Barra engine, while the higher-specification four-valve variant is known as the "Boss" engine. The V8 model of the Barra engine was stopped with the introduction of the FG Falcon, while the I6 engine continued to be built at the Geelong plant until 26 September 2016.

machine I6
All Barra I6 machines are DOHC with VCT. They were the development of SOHC I6 produced between 1988 and 2002, which in turn was the development of the 3.3 and 4.1 L flat-tappet pushes I6, developed in Australia as Crossflow "Head Alloys" in 1981, eventually in both versions carburetor and injections, developed independently of the original iron-head cross-head machine from 1976, and which in turn was developed, once again in Australia, from an original non-cross-flow family of sixth Ford originating from North America as "Thriftpower Six "designed for the original American Ford Falcon car in 1959, originally only 144 cubic miles (2.4 liters).
General specifications for all Barra I6:
Bore: 92.26 mm (3.6 inches)
Stroke: 99.31 mm (3.9 inches)
Displacement: 3984 cc
Number of valves: 24
Gasoline
Barra 182
The engine is found in the six-cylinder BA Falcon variant (also a Fairmont and Fairlane derivative model), and the SX Region, and was produced between late 2002 and mid 2005. This is the first Falcon engine to become the DOHC standard and the Cam Timing Variable. This contributes to a significant leap in output through the Intech 157Ã machine, kW SOHC intech in the previous generation AQ Falcon and a 10 kW increase through Tickford boosts the 172 kW VCT engine. It also maintains Ford's engine power output over the Holden Ecotec and L67 supercharged V6 engines found at Holden VY Commodore.

Turbocharged petrol
Barra 240T
This machine is found in the BA Falcon XR6 Turbo, and was produced between late 2002 and mid 2005. This is similar to the naturally aspirated Barra 182, except for having a different piston to lower the compression ratio, a Garrett GT35/40r turbocharger, the base fuel pressure higher, improved exhaust valve, red rocker cover, and intercooler.
- Power: 240 kW (322 hp) @ 5250 rpm
- Torque: 450Ã, N? m (332Ã, lb? ft) @ 2000-4500 rpm
- Compression Ratio: 8.7: 1
Barra 245T
This machine is found in the BF Falcon XR6 Turbo and Turbo SY Area, and was produced between mid 2005 and early 2008. It is similar to Barra 190 which is naturally aspirated, except having different pistons to lower the compression ratio, one Garrett Turbocharger GT35/40r, different injector, and intercooler. Turbo XR6 has a red rocker cover, and Territory Turbo has a dark gray rocker cover. In May 2006, the machine received a minor internal upgrade aimed at addressing con-rods issues, introducing a stronger con-rod.
- Power: 245Ã, kW (329 hp) @ 5250 rpm
- Torque: 480Ã, N? m (354Ã, lb? ft) @ 2000-4500 rpm
- Compression Ratio: 8.7: 1
Barra 270T
This machine is found in BA/BF Falcon based on FPV F6 Typhoon and Tornado model, and SY Area based on FPV F6X, and produced between 2004 and early 2009. It is a high power variant of Barra 240/245T version found. in XR6 Turbo. Increased power is achieved through the use of higher driving pressure than the less-used Garrett GT3540 turbocharger, larger intercooler, revised air intake, and improved valve springs. It has a blue rocker cover. With the introduction of the BF Falcon in 2005, Barra 270T received several improvements introduced with Barra 245T, namely the introduction of independent double VCT, the introduction of the second tap sensor and the stronger ECU.
- Power: 270 kW (362 hp) @ 5250 rpm
- Torque: 550Ã, N? m (406Ã, lb? ft) @ 2000-4250 rpm
- Compression Ratio: 8.7: 1
Barra 270T FG
The machine is found on the FG/FG-X Falcon XR6 Turbo, and is produced between mid-2008 and late 2016. Although the power figure for the revised turbo engine for the Barra 270T FG mimics the old FPV turbo I6, the engine is quite different. It has a redesigned low profile intake plot (replacing 1994's circa broadband intake manifold circa) from a naturally aspirated Falcon EF), smaller swivel turbocharger, new intercooler, and modifications cylinder head to increase compression. The end result is that the FG XR6 Turbo is actually faster than FPV BF Typhoon although they share the same power output. This machine uses a temporary over-boost feature for a maximum of 10 seconds when optimal atmospheric conditions are met when below full speed, increasing torque to 586 Nm. However, there is a claim that this figure is much higher than 586 Nm. Some sources claim more than 640 Nm achieved for 10 seconds. It was also reported that Ford did not include Fra Barra 270T's power figure, with Ford Engineers claiming that the actual power output was close to or more than 305 kW. Many dynamometer prints from various XR6 standards with Turbo engines help support Ford Engineer's claims.
- Power: 270 kW (362 hp) @ 5250 rpm
- Torque: 533Ã, N? m (393Ã, lb? ft) @ 2000-4750 rpm
- Compression Ratio: 8.8: 1
Barra 310T
This machine is found on FPG F6 based on FG Falcon. This is a high power variant of FG XR6 Turbo's Barra 270T. It was produced between mid-2008 and mid-2014, ending production when FPV was closed. Featuring larger turbochargers and intercoolers, different pistons to reduce compression, and larger injectors than less powerful brothers, it was the first engine produced in Australia to generate more than 100 hp (75 kW) per liter, producing 310 kW on the flywheel.
It is rumored that Ford strongly condemned all the turbo number 6 to save face and save the V8 model in the showroom when sending the figure of V8 power at the time. There are claims from Ford Engineers who say Ford is lacking the painting of F6 power figures, with tests in Australia supporting Ford Engineer's claim that the 310T Barra power output is actually close to 360 kW with torque exceeding 700 Nm.
- Power: 310Ã, kW (416Ã, hp) @ 5500 rpm
- Torque: 565Ã, N? m (417Ã, lb? ft) @ 1950-5200 rpm
- Compression Ratio: 8.47: 1
Barra 325T
The final and most powerful variant of the 4.0-liter I6-cylinder turbo-gasoline engine featured in the Sprint FG-X XR6. This machine is the six strongest cylinder produced in Australia and built in very limited quantities, and only 500 for Australia and 50 for New Zealand (actual production is 560, as there are 10 pre-production vehicles). Each machine has its own numbered build plaque attached to the rocker cover, which is painted in the same color as the Territory Turbo rocker cover. The engine is internally based on the Barra 270T, with added additions of Barra 310T variants such as turbo, intercooler and injector; and specially designed carbon fiber air intake. It was chosen to base the engine at 270T instead of 310T because the compression ratio increased. The machine uses an over-boost feature for 10 seconds when optimal atmospheric conditions are met when under full speed, increasing power & amp; torque up to 370 kW and 650 Nm.
- Power: 325Ã, kW (436 hp) @ 6000 rpm
- Torque: 576Ã, N? m (425Ã, lb? ft) @ 2750 rpm
- Compression Ratio: 8.8: 1
