    this is just a testament to how strong these engines are 200+ thousand miles, zero done to it and she eats

    When fixing my burnt ZKW bowls, I noticed alot of exposed wires. The bixenons produce SO MUCH HEAT!

    Dad wants the s54.... s52 would work tho. My actual guess is the m52 out of that crusty
    Black 528. Fwiw M54b25 is really similar to a m52b28 (same rods and crank )

    Jared I did notice something. In this video you have the valve cover vented to the intake to pull vacuum, in the previous video where you finished this build you did not. So did you route that hose and pull the ccv after the head lifted?

      I started to notice blowby issues before the m54 engine failed so I vented the ccv to the intake to try covering up the issues. But currently im just venting to atmosphere again. You can do it either way really. A catch can is the beat option.

    I watched all the videos on building this car, but I don't remember what the engine mount is made of, is it just like a stock hardness engine mount or is it poly? Is there a poly version of it available? I can't find info on the subject so I ask through here

      Condor solid mounts are the usual go to for turbo e46's. Stock mounts are fine tho, just depends on what your trying to build

    Do you think it's possible to use a high strength epoxy to do the piping for the idle control valve and not tig weld it? A low boost car like 10 to 12 lbs?

      its aluminum, u can use brazing rod. its similar concept to tig except u use map gas and an aluminum rod. look up "alumaweld"

    IS IT FIXABLE AFTER THE HEAD LIFTS

    • @danielplumley2649
      @danielplumley2649 2 года назад +3

      Yeah, just replace the headgasket and use stronger head bolts/studs like ARP. The head lifting just means the stock head bolts/studs aren’t strong enough to handle the boost. However, this engine is tired and had a lot of miles on it. For an engine like this you’d want to rebuild the whole thing. (Pistons, rings, rods, rod and crank bearings, thrust bearings, valve job, and the list goes on.
