Okay guys, as most of you know I am planning on rebuilding my engine with the rotating assembly from an M54B30. I'm hoping to start with in the next week so I figured it was build thread time.
So far I have the bottom of an M54B30 with the oil pan off sitting in my living room (hells yes for not having a woman in the house) and I'm about to order Bavauto gasket sets for the top and bottom end of my engine.
If any one has a lead on a set of S50B30 camshafts I would certainly appreciate it if you'd point me their way.
I was toying with the idea of a baby turbo, but I'm poor so that'l have to wait.
Left is M50, right is M54. I just thought maybe they weren't because I couldn't imagine why they would have the Allen/ torx heads if they weren't a separate piece :dunno:
Cool, that seams to me at least too indicate that my cam gears come off, after all, why would they go to a removable gear for the M52 engines and not do the same on M54s?.
Yep, my dad even gave me a jug of rust dissolver. I'm so excited to have a nice looking engine bay, next time I'm able to make to BFE you won't have to start cleaning my engine because it's disgracing our row :thumbup:
