Okay so i've decided to build a 2.7 Stroker instead with my M20b27 bottom end and 325i top end my buddy has (May eventually turbo it 8) ), Just again wondering if theres anything i need to pay attention to or may need to adapt for it to be put together, just looking for general things ill need to know as im sure its not as simple as lego :chuckle:

Many Thanks
Dale

Not 100% but I think you need the 325i Pistons to go with the 885 head

You can put a standard 2.0 731 head on the 2.7 block but doing all that work why bother with anything sub optimal

dont do a 2.7 unless you are certainly going to turbo, if you will likely just stay NA get an m52b28 crank and b25 pistons if you can? it will be miles better than low comp 2.7
