Hi guys, i've been reading up on this forum a lot in the las couple of years, and decided to introduce myself. My name is Agustín, i'm from Uruguay.
Currently i have an e21 euro(hope that´s not a problem) with a really tired m20b20, the carburated one. I had the car for 4 years now, her name is Anja, and so far she's been upgraded a lot, 5speed overdrive getrag, 3.64 LSD, 2 years ago i converted to EFI, stock m20b20 intaje manifold, 19lbs/h mustang injectors, and a megasquirt ms2. This year was quite more fun, i upgraded to ITBS, borrowed(stole) the idea and went on with the Suzuki GSX600 throttle bodies, and as i kept the dizzy... it sucked, lost 40whp... so naturally i converted to wasted spark and it is a lot better, it is still on a base tune, but it feels and sound a lot nicer.
Next project is the m20b28 stroker, i've beer reading a lot on this matter, and recently bought ALL the age old spares that were burried in the back of my local BMW mechanic's shop with a friend, among this parts, came 2 forged cranks, which rsearch on the casting numbers revealed were m51 cranks(2242898 C38), and a set of m20b25 short skirt pistons, which my trusted machinnist said were perfect for my build... if i was building wind chimes or ashtrays...
Nontheless, i'm still hellbent on building the b28 stroker, as i already have 130mm rods and an 82.8mm crank.
Well... it's been a pleasure to introduce myself to you guys, and if it is permitted i could upload a couple pics of little Anja!
