I think the server stops archiving them when they're three years old!.

i think the water jacket would be the least of the problems. How will you drive the camshaft sprocket?

[moatilliatta]

replace it with a pulley?.. possibly I've never sat down and looked at an m50 head. i think i will.

Considering the difference is ignition systems you could practically swap out the entire engine harness with one from a non-vanos E36. You would pretty much have to considering that you would have to change over to the coil pack iginition system that the M50 uses.


Hmmm.. now I'm intrigued.. I gots a non-vanos head in the garage I could poke around at.

-It seems easier just to swap the whole m50...

[moatilliatta]

im gunna see what a m50 head gasket looks like on the m20 block....
