VFR800 Posted September 9, 2017 Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 It's a Ford six cylinder engine commonly referred to here in AUS as a "Barra" engine. 4.0 litre. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Barra_engine All Barra I6 engines are DOHC with VCT.[2] They are a development of the SOHC I6s produced between 1988 and 2002, which in turn are a development of the 3.3 and 4.1 L push-rod flat-tappet I6, developed in Australia as an "Alloy Head" Crossflow in 1981, eventually in both carburetted and injected versions, which itself was developed from the original iron-head cross flow engine from 1976, and which in turn was developed, again in Australia, from the original non-cross flow family of light Ford sixes which originated in North America as the "Thriftpower Six" designed for the original American Ford Falcon compact of 1959, initially in just a 144 cubic inch (2.4 L) displacement.Common specifications to all I6'sBore: 92.26 mm (3.6 in)Stroke: 99.31 mm (3.9 in)Displacement: 3984 ccNumber of valves: 24 Quote Link to comment

nl320what Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 AUS had all the good Ford crossflow heads for these inline 6 motors. In the US ours were intake built in the head and the exhaust manifold on the same side. Rare to have any crossflow heads in the US. 1 Quote Link to comment
