M52 stroker

[f0xy]

Approx 50 mains, 28 big ends and 10 per cylinder for rings I think. All plus VAT. I can double check in a few days if need be. Rings were Hastings, bearings were Kolbenschmidt

[magpie]

around £200 for the lot then.....i've asked a few questions and been told i could get away with using the mains again and plastigauge them but if you bought all these for yours for your motor and it's all sweet then it would be rude of me not to use your supplier really

[magpie]

i have these in my watch list

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271124648578? ... EBIDX%3AIT

are these the ones ?

[f0xy]

Yeah, thats Kings Components 'own brand' I think.. They'd be perfectly fine, but they only had Kolbenschmidt in stock at the time so I had those.

That eBay guys actually in Lithuania, not sure if he just re-sells Kings stuff or what but he quoted me a week or two for delivery when I contacted him before I found out I was local to this place..

i gave the block and m54 internals to a machine shop who re-honed the block and fitted the crank,new mains,new big ends,new rings,crank gaskets and con rod bolts .

I'm running mine in now, a lot stronger than the old 2.8

you gonna dyno it ?

[f0xy]

Good work. Done a couple of K in mine now and all still seems well.

[Quaser]

how much did it cost to get machine shop to do if you dont mind me asking

[magpie]

£300 PARTS , £140 labour Inc re-hone

KolBen schmidt parts were used

It will go on the same dyno I had the last one rolled on

I'm running on a remapped 2.8 ecu so I need to put the wide band on and check the fueling

the mapped 328i ecu should be ok though ...no ?

[f0xy]

It will compensate enough yes, the maf correction works well. We only made very slight adjustments to bring a bit more from it.

[mattxr2]

I assume it will be ok, f0xy would you be willing to put your map on an Ecu for some money. I could run both on the dyno then

good stuff ... the dyno will spot overfuelling anyway won't it ?

[f0xy]

I could yeah, I have a spare ECU. I'll have to get my kit back to read the flash but I don't know how soon yet.

[mattxr2]

I have a spare ecu too but I'll need to get ews deleted

The ecu I have made 234bhp 181lbft on the 2.8 it was just 2 runs to see the curve as the ecu is unknown. Both runs were the same

I'll ask about fuelling but it's more of a quick favour, I have tech edge wide band to check myself too

[f0xy]

I get around 11.5:1 at WOT at top RPM, this is one of my data logs from the M52 ECU
