Feeler 324 crank's

[zaust]

Who would be interested as may be able to get a load.
other part's may be as well, looking in the new year..

[Turbo-Brown]

How much we talking, what sort of condition and when?

Funnily enough I was wondering where these can be had just today!

Were they fitted to Omega diesels, or did I imagine that?

[dazleeds]

yeh i could be interested too

means some paltry power output compared to the 525tds lump (143bhp)

So was the Omega equiped with an M20 diesel and as such, would the crank be forged?

I'm day dreaming about building another TT only this time a 2.7 with sequential turbos, reasonably low compression, forged pistons and rods, biiiiig boost, a lairyish cam (for a turbocharged engine) a nice high red line.....and like all my best projects it'll take me about 10 years to complete!

[320Touring]

So was the Omega equiped with an M20 diesel and as such, would the crank be forged?

the 324d/524d was an m21 diesel based on the m20 block

d= 86bhp, 112ft/lb torque

td= 115bhp and 155ft/lb torque


the 325td/s was an m51 based on the m50

td= 115bhp, 162 ft/lb torque

tds=143bhp and 206ft/lb torque

meaning that the omega may well have a forged crank, but its the wrong engine... the m51 stroke is 82.8mm instead of 81mm

maybe custom pistons may assist?

interesting to note they offered a 740d on the continent, the m57 v8- 245bhp and 425ft/lb torque (at 1750rpm )

u best save cos they ain't cheap, will they come with shells too Mark?

[Turbo-Brown]

Shame about the Omega, had hight hopes of finding a scrapper and nicking it's crank

Still interested in a price on these though.

Bottom end only, But no thats not where they will be comming from.

Will also be looking at the bringing back the intercooler's (if big enough)
and Pipe work. Think the manifold's will only house small low pressure turbo.

I will have to work out cost's of all part's, looking to happen just after new year..

[chu346]

Why can't the m51 crank be used? people use the m50 crank.

[zaust]

Right after my recent trip I Have stored some complete 2.4 td engines complete. Charge pipes, manifolds, turbos ect. I have to go over a couple more times to get more as i need to bring a lot back to make it worth while. Fortunatly i have friends to help over in spain so storage is free. and they can check for ones comming avalible,
Will you keep updated.

[Turbo-Brown]

Cool, how much we talking for just a forged crank?

[Ant]

£830.53 according to my ( out of date) ETK prilist, with shells

One day I'll ask the $tealer....... the day after I get 6 numbers up

[Turbo-Brown]

Now you're giving him ideas Ant

[gcorky]

£83.53 according to my ( out of date) ETK prilist, with shells

One day I'll ask the $tealer....... the day after I get 6 numbers up

worth more than 83.53 ?????

[zaust]

Im aiming to be able to supply the cranks for around 200, a fair price. i can't say on shells coz i don't know the condition yet.

[Turbo-Brown]

No point using old shells when new ones are so cheap. More concerned with the condition of the journals on the crank but if you can do me one for £200 I'm definately in!

[zaust]

Thats what i wana hear.. rember i said around 200 though.

[Turbo-Brown]

Cool, I'll happily pay less

Seriously though, for around that price I'm in

[ed325i]

You can put me down for one.

[tee]

I will def have one. Put my name down!!

[stuartgallafant]

interesting to note they offered a 740d on the continent, the m57 v8- 245bhp and 425ft/lb torque (at 1750rpm )

the M57 is the diesel equivalent to the M54. they also produce the M57TU and M57TU2, all 6 cylinder with small variants.

The V8 diesels available on the continent are the M67 twin turbo diesel V8's and these things roar!!!

im not picking, just clarifying...

[zaust]

I have 2 cranks from 324td's and the con rod's, Due to post cost's they are going to have to be more than planned. £400 crank and rod's... they will be with me over the next month. let me know please people..

[Colonel Sanders]

am i right in thinkin this crank will be strong for a turbo on high boost? if so im in.....

Marc the com rods cant be used without work. so if you just ship the cranks over it may be cheaper ?
