who has an M50 for sale? Will you take $200?

[Roland H]

Apparently you can get M88/3 headers brand new for $930.80/set... :hmm:

They're still available? I'm surprised they haven't been totally spoken for.

As an aside, aren't supersprints easier to find and better? I highly doubt the oem headers are the absolute best power header for that engine.

Hey, that's come down a bit! They were about $1300 the last time I checked a few months ago. Anybody have a grand they don't need???

They never made supersprint headers for the M5/M6 stuff until the E39 M5. And yes the OE M88 headers are the best option out there just like my OE S50B30 headers flow better than aftermarket stuff.

Wait, WHAT?! Replica or not, that engine is awesome!

[Cloudbase]

It's a legit Ferrari V12. I believe it's a replica made from legit Ferrari parts. I'm just speculating though. High end P4 replicas go for over $200k.

I've got a dead motor with good fans if u want it.

Hmmm, might look into how hard it is to replace the fans. I think its a PITA though :(

[Bimmerman325i]

Oh my god that Ferrari.

I've had a crisis.

It's easy to replace fans. They are a simple light press fit onto the shafts. All you need to do is get a little WD-40 on the shaft, have someone grab one fan blade, and you grab the other, and gently pull and twist until they come off.

Be careful w/ the blades though, they get pretty weak over the years.
