    Hello M62B44

    Wish me luck, last reported mileage 80k. Just getting the long block, if all goes as planned should have it in a couple of hours :)

    I want to use the 4.4L bottom end with my rebuild heads...then I can make a coffee table out of the B40 bottom end lol.

                      $127? Nice... mine was free, so I win but you're a very close second. That's stupid money for an 80K M62B44...

                        Crossing my fingers for a nice one to pop up here in pull-a-part again, when I'll actually have the funds

                          Yeah, even at $500 for an 80K B44, it's still stupid cheap. These are pretty bulletproof motors, so anything under 150K is a good starting point. Hell, the M60B40 in my E34 has 285K on it and it still has a couple hundred thousand left in it, lol!

                            So, the M62B44 has pistol oil squirters just like M62TU...unlike M60 variant.

                            Took the B44 heads off today, not sure what I am going to do with these yet.

                            Bores look good, just like on my brothers 03 m62tu.

                              Bottom end is just that now, block with crank/rods/pistons. We broke one craftsman breaker bar undoing the front crank bolt lol.

                              B40 valve covers are getting tanked/blasted, now I have two oil pans and two sets of valve covers to play with.

                              Next is to test fit the obd1 timing components from the b40 onto b44 before making a long list of parts to order.
