Barnett Racing Engines Barnett Racing Engines are one of the UK's premier builders of FF1600 and FF2000 engines.

Whether you need a bespoke new engine, a winter rebuild or are just looking for some support at the races, Barnett Racing Engines can provide you with the winning advantage. We specialise in building historic Ford race engines, from pre-Crossflows to Crossflows (and Lotus Twin Cams). Our FF1600 and FF2000 motors have won championships and countless races across the UK and Europe. On top of our engineering excellence, we pride ourselves on our friendly service and quick turnaround times. Book with BRE and you won't be stuck in the usual indeterminable engine builder's queue.

MASSIVE PRICE REDUCTION!

It's dyno day for the last of our 'summer' rebuilds. Once this FF1600 engine is done, we'll be turning our eyes towards the winter schedule.

We'll be at Silverstone for the HSCC Finals in three weeks' time (and at the Walter Hayes Trophy three weeks after that) to chat through any off-season work you might need.

There are already a few confirmed projects on the cards, so these spaces will undoubtedly book up fast. Get in touch if you need an FF1600, FF2000 or MGB rebuild this winter.

Over the summer we've had a workshop clear-out and decided to put our Lotus Elan 26R project up for sale.

All the parts were bought new from Tony Thompson Racing in July 2021 and we started the assembly in-house. The parts alone would now cost £10,000 plus VAT but, we're looking for just £7,995 plus VAT.

The kit includes a painted 26R chassis (currently without a chassis number stamp) as well as a super rare set of genuine rear brake calipers with handbrake mechanism.

Under 24 hours to go until our next race of 2026. However, this one doesn't involve any racing cars.

Tomorrow, Josh will be running 66 miles around the Isle of Wight. That's over two-and-a-half marathons. The plan is to do it in under 13 hours and it's all in aid of Dementia UK.

Is he mad? Yes. Will he meet his time goal? Who knows. Is it for a great cause? Of course. If there's any change left in your 2026 racing budget, it would be amazing if you could donate.

Help Josh Barnett raise money to support Dementia UK
