1,1kg before cutting. 945g after cutting. of course i have to glue one part to it, but i gues it still weighted under 1,1kg after its ready.
Not so superior surface, but i fucked with new (new brand to me) spray glue :stupid:Didn't read manual. F**k

Any update ?

No big progress..
Yesterday i get all temp/pressure sensors for engine/Motec.
Also autosport connectors for sensors.

All sensors are made by Kulite automotive and McLaren electronics.





All pressure sensors are also temp sensors. So i get temp and pressure data from same sensor.

Where i get studs for M62?
ARP dont make them, and thats only brand to trust. (maybe)
With BMW OEM bolts i know everything goes well.
If i over thight block, cylinders goes oval.

btw.
Those bolts in upper pic are rod bolts.

Ok,, didnt knew that,, but the bolts are 10x110mm in length as oem

and if you can find studs in that lenght you are a go!

Lets start with engine build.

I love how you started with this statement and then go full custom!

Can't wait to see this all come together.

Fantastic,,,,

Why dont you use Studs,,, ,, IMO it is the best way when you have an aluminum block

i like the ITB idea,,, this conversion should be done more often on a M/6x swaps
