Will an6one have any cheap e36 or e46 for sale around march in Virginia Beach va area? I'll be getting my school refund then and looking to get a cheap daily and first bmw then. Manual or auto doesn't matter to me

beautiful channel and e34s ❤

holy shit trunk space is crazy

watching insta videos of you greasy in a garage, and now seeing how hype you are to get this thing is sick! happy for ya! have a rhd japanese car down in southern il! welcome to the club ha

Thank you, ill let you know how it goes, umwah❤

Ahhh, how inspiring is this work!

m60b44 CR is actually around 9,5 or so depending on hg you use, that 11 CR is BS. I did measure everything couple years ago lol

Sry but to add to some comments and your explanations: 1) compression increases as already been explained. 2) hp increases as a) displacement increases and b) just google the m62 introduction pdf. You will learn that a m60b40 has a far sharper cam and more lift. The channels in the head are even bigger and thus the engine cn breathe better. If your guy told you something about it not being anything better, there was something else off on the engine build. Honestly go the m60b40+ route(light 50g tappets), use a bigger valvebody(there are shops selling a refurbish with increased diameter + polished and flow enhanced internals) and hand adapt the exhaust flanges, 200cell cats and a remap woth 7k rev limiter....you can dyno it and see where the car goes. When ever you come across a good b44 the Frankenstein can be done and compared.

E36 crankshaft position sensor video pleaseeeeee 😢

Which bottom end would be better to sc, b44 or b40?

M60b40 🙌

Correct me if I’m wrong, but the higher compression of the b44 comes from having a longer stroke (and bore slightly), thus the total swept volume of the combustion chamber is greater than the b40 due to the piston going lower than the b40. So when you divide the volume of the combustion chamber with the piston at BDC with the volume at TDC, which equals compression ratio, the top number is larger on the b44 due to greater piston travel, and thus the higher ratio. Josh video demonstrates that the bottom number (volume at TDC) is same/similar for b44 and b40, but doesn’t take into the higher swept volume of the b44.

Nice job, a real learning experience. :)

LOL, in the future always take off and cover if your doing an operation that can put shavings into you oil system! also you can apply air to that system to blow out any chips left in there after you tap. Never use air to blow into where there are chips especially if it leads to the oil channels.

M60 bottom end is not "bad" and any out there still running have been swapped out. The reason to do this is for the higher displacement.

seen a lot of photos of scored bores on high milage m62b44s fwiw

Interesting video josh we learning something new everyday but im still looking forward to seeing this build just as much

A very useful and very satisfying video. Thanks!

If u ever do a M62 and wanna stroke it, i got a 4.7 kit for sale then.

I always assumed the m60b44 was just for reliability and the m60b46 was the real high power hybrid

b44 with b40heads makes 330hp 350hp on the dyno with supersprint headers.

I made the front end of my e30 removable because it makes my life a million times easier with the v8 swap. I did mine about 8 years ago then people started doing it after I'd posted in the groups etc 😎

Thats why i dont waste time on forums.

I don't have any experience with these engines, but if your visual observation is correct, you just proved the stroker DOES increases the compression ratio. Think about it. It's compression RATIO. If the volume on top remains the same, but you increase the volume in the bottom, the compression ratio must increase. To know for sure, careful measurements must be taken.

Lots of myth out there in the automotive world.

Should’ve went the LS route for the W

Always a great day when Josh posts a video

Whoever designed the E34 front grille should be prosecuted. Why did the do it like that? E30 and E32 grilles come off in seconds. My 318is M42 burnt the same exhaust valve, the rear one on cylinder number 3. 178,000 miles and 30 years old tho. The 4.4 stroker will always have a different CR to the 4.0 with the same piston crowns and heads because it's drawing in and thus compressing more air. Unless you are remapping the ECU properly though, the ignition timing will be wrong because the 4.4 piston will be coming up the bore faster and dwell at TDC is less. More fuel alone won't achieve more power. I suspect the 4.0 cams aren't doing it any favours either. A 4.4 short engine will have better torque but very little more power.

How much is your e34 530/540i/6 going for?. I recall from your savage build from your estroil. Blue e36 M3 came with a super sprint exhaust, too, right?

I’m getting M539 vibes and I’m here for it!

Can you use S62 crank, rods, and pistons to increase to 5 liters and also somehow install the S62 ITBs? What I mean is to create a simple OBD1 S60(???!!!) with no vanos.

chris and hamish are great guys to talk to, known them a few years at this point

What do you think about an m50b30 stroker?

IMO there is no way, the camshaft and head must have been damaged during disassembly, this engine would not start with such a cracked head and shaft

You gotta get yourself a quickjack if you're not going lift. Game changer when you have limited space.

I think you just may have helped me figure out what the upper head timing sound my 840 (b40) has. Sounds like a nasty scraping, I think i lost that plastic guide on the upper chain tensioner.

Nice car and especially when it came out in m5 my friend it doesn't exist👌👌

To test your theory you should standalone this b40 and tune it aggressively to make similar power to b44 build

I have a 80 633csi for sale in Texas. 52k miles but sat for 18years.

Hello brother, I hope you are well. The work you have done and your skills are excellent. I need a little help from you. I would appreciate it if you could help me. I was looking for an M30 engine rebuild when I came across your channel. I have an E34 535 with full options and in my country, access to facilities is difficult for various reasons. I have several problems that I would like to raise. Please answer, thank you.

Agreed... here is the problem: Just because a nice E28 M5 is worth 50k, it doesn't mean a clapped-out 528e is worth 20k, or even 10k... The pricing insanity on these beautiful rust-buckets can't last much longer.

turbo the car > engine torque doubles > clutch slips > lets put double diaphragm springs on that > clutch feels stiff > can't even parallel park that car and left foot always in pain > gets rid of that clutch > puts zf8hp > car is street driveable and can be tracked too > owner is happy

Do you know where I can find torque specs for a 1982 e23

amazing. lucky guy

💟

how in the world did you get to the top detent spring with the tranny on the car? Not the bolt one, but the press in one. I have the tranny lowered but not able to reach the one with a screw driver to pry it out. I have not loosened any motor mounts?

thank you very much I also have a factory paint e34 '94 in Moscow and i have to repair my heating system cause everything seems to be not working now 😂

scrappy 😂😂😂 garbage..wc

amazing !
