Is there anybody(traders) selling the M52B28 crankshaft with the front space already machined to size to drop straight into an M20B25 with M20B20 rods obviously? If yes how much?
If I can't fix it I'll f**k it up so bad nobody can!!

As I understand it, you don't machine the crank - it needs a spacer added to it. :thumb:
This is why I no longer drive an E30......

Sorry I should have said 'the front "spacer" already machined' normally made from the M52 crank pully hub. This conversion to a 2.8 seems to be the cheapest good performance mod available for the M20B25.

Ireland engineering does a stroker kit, including the crank, spacer, custom pistons for use with b25 con-rods(with custom CR) for about US$1800 + postage
