Out of which M47 engine comes your crank and why?

I a way I already own this but it would leave my E87 useless, unless it takes a M42 crank...

M47 with part number 11212247514

Its 88mm stroke. the crank stub is the propper length. the OD needs turned down and a new keyway needs put in at the correct location.

BTW, you'll need to get another woodruff key cut into the crank.

What kind of revs are possible with the longer stroke? same as M42 STD with chip?

Can you still rev this setup to say 7500rpms with the much longer piston travel? Also how strong are the m3 pistons after cutting the deck by a couple of mm's?

Which rod and piston lengths/sizes would I want for a 8.5 CR motor?
Using a M47 crank? do these have stock bearing size?
Head gasket thickness?

Sorry to use your thread.  Cant wait to see the motor done.
M47 crank is the way to go.

What happens if you use M44 crank with M42B18 pistons?

Bunta, if you use S52 pistons(86,4mm) and M47 crank with 135mm rods(stock S52 rods), you shave the pistons to leave them 3mm below deck(you would have to shave about 1-2mm) you would end up with 2064cc, and 8,5:1CR.
Bearings have the same size between S52 and M42 and M47.
head gasket? stock M44 86mm bore.

Ivan petrov, you would have 1862cc, but you would need to shave the pistons, because M44 crank would leave the piston 1,5mm above deck, this would destroy the head, piston, rod, or all of them... you need to have the piston 0,15mm above deck maximum.with 0,15mm above deck, CR would be 10,3:1

Helps very much!

Option 1: 1929cc
M44 Crank
S50 Pistons

Option 2: 1947cc
M44 Crank
S52 Pistons

Option 3: 1997cc
M47 crank
M44 Pistons shaved 2.5mm


Are these calculations based on the M42 con rods?
