So the motor I was supposed to be getting for my car is officially r3v'd. 130k m20b25 that ran peferctly before oil starvation destroyed the bearings and crank. Cylinder walls had lots of visible crosshatch, no ridge. Needless to say I was kinda upset to lose such a nice motor.
So, I have this boat anchor and dont know what to do with it. I think I'll be getting a 323i head for my eta, but Im not sure if I want to keep running the stock 2.7 bottom end. Pending an oil pressure test I have no reason to believe there are any faults with my motor though.
Should I start building a 2.7 out of the b25 or just try to machine the crank, and the block and rebuild a 2.5?
