Yes, Dbilas. Interesting to find recently that the stock fuel rail does NOT just bolt up. Thinking I'll have top make a custom fuel rail. Other than that, everything else looks "ok". We'll see what happens this week..... :-)

Compression Height of Stock S50 Piston is 32.8mm with Honda 1.8L VTEC B18C (GSR) 138mm rod


Excuse me, maybe it's a stupid question... If you use honda rods, do you use honda bearings?

You should be able to use the BMW bearings since the big end is the same diameter as the BMW rods.

Nick is probably right but I used the Honda bearings.
