In low RPMs yes, in high RPMs the long crank of the I6 gets nasty for torsional vibration. This is why the non-M I6 engines are designed for lower RPM. Performance I6 has a different damper system (S38, S50 [real version], S54) where there is a better attachment to the crank snout. Even then race teams used ducting to the damper to keep it cool and replaced them often.
Just a classifier on the statement because people believe this and wonder why I6 engines beat themselves to death if used a lot a higher RPM.
Some damper info for those curious: https://harmonicdampers.com/index.ph...e3bkqcfpt2epc4

The website is advertisement aids for anyone that doesn't have their own paid account logged in. I pay about $100 a year to be able to embed and host for sharing these threads. No reply from support as of yet beyond the auto reply stating they will get back to me some day....Tenured Automotive Service Professional - Avid BMW Enthusiast

Problem is that I have thousands of images on Photobucket and switching will mean breaking every image I've posted over the last 10+ years. I'm kinda married to it.Tenured Automotive Service Professional - Avid BMW Enthusiast

This recent weirdness aside I haven't had any issues with them. That said tech support has been about as useful as ovaries on a nun, I think I have it resolved on my own. My account upload settings were reset (not by me) and reconfiguring, erasing uploads made during the setting change, and reuploading then going back and relinking here seems to resolve....
Rebuilt cluster installed, odometer cleared out to signify the vehicles rebirth. I'm not going to go into how to recalibrate the odometer, its fairly straight forward if not a little fiddly because of the number of components to juggle, but I need not make it any easier than it already is to change the mileage on these cars.
Connected the electrical system to power for the first time in nearly two years. No magic smoke. Played around with what I could, engine harness isn't installed so the some stuff wouldn't work like blower and windows which get power from the unloader relay.
Radio works great as expected, power antenna working normally, OBC works, all dash lighting working (all new bulbs damn well better) and all exterior lighting works, again all new bulbs and housings so really damn well better. Washer pump runs, windshield wiper motor choochs along, horn works, I think thats it.
