Difference in head?? & turbo question

[Quaser]

Hiya

Could you guys pls tell me what the differences are in a m50b25, and a m52b28 heads pls

also, are the cams different, and can you put a m52 head on a m50?

if I was to put 2.8 pistons in a m50 block, which would be the best head to use for a turbo project

Thanks

pistons wont fit without some major boring out from 75 mm bore to
84 mm

According to realoem - both pistons are 84mm

Ignore anything Rich says, he is the zone retard.

You wanting to build a stroker turbo? I would just use a standard m50 to be honest. They take 500hp with nothing more than a MLS and ARP head bolts, if it pops, stick in another £300 m50. A stroker would cost a fair whack more.

thanks - so std m50 bottom end, and std head then - no need for double intake cams or anything like that??

your in a world of problem and yes the bore is 84mm my mistake

No, would imagine there are some gains to be had from purpose designed turbo cams but it's expense that isn't really needed.

Have a read through Craig's build thread in the turbo section to give you an idea of a good set up.

i would have thought you would know the difference between bore and stroke since you seem to be so good at stroking it....
