Swaps, Turbos, Buildups / Re: M44B19 Racing Engine
« on: September 24, 2014, 11:42:20 PM »
Hi All,
I see that the topic is not discussed for a while but maybe someone can help me.
I would like to build a stroker M44 (or M42) engine for my turbocharged 318is.
This sentence is really interesting:
"The good thing is, that you can buy stock Evo Pistons for 100$, and they are very strong and forged from the factory. Together with second hand diesel and 135mm second hand M20 Rods ... you can stroke the Engine for under 1000$ and It will still be very strong."
Has anyone built the same engine?
I would like to know the exact parts (piston, conrod, crank) what could be used to build a stroker engine. I have both M42 and M44 engines, but my current configuration was set for M44 (with VEMS engine management). Since the car is turbocharged it would be better to have a CR < 10:1.
I've searched for this modification and M47 diesel crank is mentioned with M20 conrods, but I don't know if they really could work together with EVO pistons. Anyway which EVO piston could be used (if any)?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
