Hello group,

New to this forum, have found a lot of usefull infos on this and decide to subscribe.
m Harry , driving 1973 bmw 02 , m20b25 swap ; my engine need a rebuilt so instead of just rebuild it , i will stroke it using m51d25 crank (84.2mm) as it is available here, M engine crank is almost impossible to find in this island.

I plan to use m20b20 130mm rods , and machine down the stock b25 piston (euro 9.7:1) to 14mm as said in other website, my question is, someone already did this stroker combo on this forum ?



Thank you

ive not seen anyone do that build on here. it will be very similar to the 2.8L using the m52b28 crankshaft. slightly less capacity and slightly less compression.
E30 325is with M20B31
