24V IX SWAP (*56k* BEWARE!)

[nrubenstein]

So, why hydroboost? Why not use the simpler, lighter and already extant iX hardware?

[Pantless Spency]

oh man has anyone rigged a 24v ix before? i've never heard of it until just now. awesome idea i'm in for this one, subbed.

Glad to see another m52 with s52 cams swap coming along. I love mine!

+1

has no cams though = /

this will mark the second 24v in recent times (on the forums atleast). The last one was a s5x touring.

At any rate, consider me subscribed!

Can't wait to see this one come together. M52 engines with S52 cams are still great engines.

M52 is the way to go, opposed to M50

That looks like the intake manifold of an M30 to me. I hope someone didn't tell you that was a 24V engine, because the M30 is still a SOHC 12V.

Or is that just the car that you pulled the brake master components out of?

I am thinking he posted that because of the hydroboost hardware.....

Ummm... that looks like the intake manifold of an M30 to me. I hope someone didn't tell you that was a 24V engine, because the M30 is still a SOHC 12V.

that was the hydroboost donor car :p

looks like you got to a good start. which 24v engine you putting in?

Id love to put an S52 in it, but the pricing and availability might not allow that... thinking M52 at this point... maybe with a S50/52 head.....

[CHIF8008]

ya i saw the m30- but thought he was just using the brake master cylinder from it
