        there are some dings on top of cylinder 6 like the previous head threw a valve and scored it slightly

        hence the newly rebuilt head on the older bottom end. the port and polish job on the head looks great, the intake side is nearly spotless. and the cams look mint.

        no signs of oil or coolant where they shouldn't be. taking the head in to be inspected and resurfaced on tuesday.

        i'll let you know what they tell me.
        Well I'll be damned. You may have just scored big time! Keep me posted on the engine though.

            I need to start researching into getting ahold of a M50 and doing a swap.

            I wish I had an accessible garage at my disposal. Might have to bite the bullet and rent one and try to do the swap within 30 days.

              Meh M50's IMO If you MUST do 24v get a M3 motor.

                  m50s arent bad at all. Sure nonvanos aint really gonna make your car faster.. but it does give you a WAY BETTER UPGRADE path, easier to wrench on, etc.

                  vanos motors with cams and a tune and headers are nice though
