So is this engine completely different as in the casting of the block and head , as you mentioned in one of the comments. Can you even get one of these engine or parts to build it ?. Very interesting indeed

mr323i I think most parts are still available. The head has a few subtle differences to a standard head, but I think the block is same as standard. I’ve kept this engine as a ‘rainy day’ project. Might be a year or two before I rebuild it, but I will do it....

Nice work! Whats that pump on right side of engine?
@mikeymike60174 жыл бұрын
Ducati Racer that pump is the engine oil dry sump pump.

What belt did you used for the power steering pump delete

Actually, I converted it back to wet sump (the dry sump setup was just too hardcore, and a pain in the ass), and put the conventional power steering pump setup on there too.

Hello... TLC 'Tender Loving Care'. I am now rebuilding the engine. The pistons were damaged, so I'm now completely rebuilding the engine with new pistons, bearings, etc... I hope to have it back in the car in the next couple of weeks.

Mikey Mike Im on that stage as well...euro s50b30 over here for street use...are you putting forged internals? Id be glad to connect with you on viber or something if you care to share your thoughts on this rebuilding process..I could use some help!
@mikeymike60176 жыл бұрын
Yes, forged. Previous pistons were Mahle Racing (BMW Motorsport), with Arrow rods. The head is BMW Motorsport, and quite a lot different from standard. It actually has more metal in some parts of the intake port than the standard head, despite having larger throats, etc. Cams are BMW Motorsport 288/272. Throttle bodies are also modded to suit the intake ports. Not sure what 'Viber' is?

wow sounds like alot of work! I was thinking of something more bolt on like VAC Motorsport stroker kit you previously had....but after seeing you writing somewhere that this engine broke down I kind of backed out......viber is a platform for instant messages ...anyway you got facebook or something? or instagram to pm you
