Hi, I'm planning on building the classic M50 Iron block turbo engine. After much research and conversations, I've got various routes to go down and wondered if anyone had successfully done any of them. I have a full M50 engine, and full M52 engine sat ready.
Ive been told that commonly the M50 blocks are stripped to a bare block and then built back up with all M52 internals, then chuck on all turbo related parts. I then got told to build the above but with an M54 crank and make it a 3.0 stroker, and then again bolt on the turbo.
Has anyone done either of the above?
No matter what internals go into the M50 block, theyre going to be brand new forged, all ARP head bolts etc etc, so if anyone has any info on which internals are best in the M50 block it would be appreciated
Cheers, Brad.
