Now that the honeymoon is over...

It's good.

you don't have an M60B44 hybrid, do you?

[elguapo84]

Wow... So supercharged M60B44 is the thing to do!

Has the owner of that supercharged M60 posted any torque/HP numbers?

[elguapo84]

Bumping for reports from our M60B44 hybrid owners out there! Is it worth while?

Who are all of the people that you think have done this? As far as I know, Garey is the only one to put that engine together, and his car isn't finished yet.

You did the 4.0 heads on the 4.4 bottom end, and used 4.0 timing components? I didn't realize anyone else had put one together.

In that case, keep us updated with dyno results once you get it tuned!

that is exactly what i did hah but im waiting for castros in hollywood to finish installing their dyno so they can burn me a chip

Kill stories:

vs 350z with chip intake header-back exhaust - win by a car length to 80
vs GTO, mods unknown - highway roll from 60-120 win by a car length
vs Maserati Gran Turismo - lose by 3 cars to 80
vs CLS550 - highway roll from 75-120 win by 2 car lengths
vs m62 swapped e34 525 - half a car length to 120

91 318is with m60/6 speed and header back exhaust. The Maserati is why I'm no longer m60

Very interested in your results once you pop a chip in there.

Have you documented your build at all?

[elguapo84]

Would the motor mounts and geometry for the M60B44 hybrid swap be any different from the M60B40? I'm asking because I'd like to get started on what I can before I need to make a decision on B44 vs. B40.

nope they are the same, even for the s62 its the same, i didn't really document anything i kinda just did it and was lazy to take pictures

Any updates on your build? How's it running?

it was running great.. then i blew my new headgasket... so gotta fix that before anything

[iamsam]

any updates, people??

Someone ought to have some solid experience now w/ an M60B44 hybrid. And I heard in another thread Mark D may be making chips for these motors...

[iamsam]

nobody?
