Did you remove the old motor with the tranny? Or did you leave the tranny in there?

It's in the car and running, my build thread is at m42club.com. I just added the COP KIT from hqautosport and love it. Pic won't load right now. Will try to get a smaller one.
While there also a lot of challenges from running OBDII, I love having data steam capabilities.

Looks good. I see you have what appears to be an R1200GS in the corner of the first pic? ADV riding ftw.

Ever think of becoming a detective? It's a workmate's bike but it is a BMW r1200

This is excellent. Nice work!

Hoping for around 175 at the flywheel hence the 350.../2 post. Might need to save for ITB's to really open it up. I will be playing with e30 and e36 cam and intake manifold combinations to see what makes the best, most-usable power before dropping bank on ITB's, however.

350hp

If you were doing that set up NA, what do you think the HP would be? 160ish?

I approve this thread. Sub'd!

Cost is somewhere between 2k and $2,500. I did my own valve job and port work so add 400+ $$ for that. I milled the pistons as well. But that includes a $550 m44, with a cracked head I found out later, balancing everything and lightening the flywheel. The rest of the machine work, cam, m42 head, rings gaskets etc.
The tune will be extra. I spread it out over 2 years so the wife barely noticed. That and my current m42 just won't blow up.
