M50 bore tolerances?

Would that result in a higher compression ratio? Or does the crank have a smaller stroke.

Feel free to post up links of the parts your suggesting!

you could order:

overbore pistons for a M54b30
Rods and crank from m54b30 or s52b32 US.

bore the M50b25 block to match the overbore new pistons.
install rods and crank+pistons.

then you have 3000cc

Thats sounds about right... 84 is just the approximate number. You need to measure the top, bottom, and middle of your cylinder to ensure that theyre straight. Then measure your pistons. Subtract the 2 and youll get your clearance.

So the fact that my bore is like 83.99 is odd?

84mm

Anyone know what the stock bore is on them?

If you plan on running stock pistons with your block then the tolerance should be right around .0015 (+/-.0003") based on the stock bore size. Any more may result it piston slap.

You can go up .025, but you need to match the pistons to the bore size. You can easily order .025 pistons w/ rings.

S52 is 86.4 if I remember correctly.

You should just swap out to the M52 crank and do a 2.8 setup with .025 pistons. Best of both worlds.

Sweet, thanks!

I need to re-hone my block, and wanted to know what my bore should be(how far from stock it can be, e34 m50b25tu,) it Will have new rings of course.

Stock is 84mm. s50 is 86mm. People say not to go more than 86 on Those blocks.
