To be honest I am up for any bmw l6, whichever is cheapest/most reliable

To be honest I am unsure as to what l6 I'd like, any is fine, there just seemed to be more available haha. The plan is to put it into an MGB GT

Thanks a lot guys! The plan when buying the engine would be the following: -Replacing coolant parts (alloy parts where once were plastic) -Replacing gaskets and seals -Replacing pumps -Replacing all filters etc Since I'll be swapping the engine into a non BMW, I figured it'd be best to do all these things at once.

Hello everyone, As I mentioned in the general discussions, I am looking to purchase an M52 or similar in the near(ish) future. Before I swap the engine into the car, I would like to know which upgrades are most recommended. I am not going for power, I am going for reliability. I am currently aware of the two following reliability upgrades: - Replacing thermostat housing with aluminium. - Replacing waterpump pulley with aluminium Are there any other big things to replace that will improve the reliability? At this stage I would not be interested in replacing cam, crank or pistons. Thanks again for the help, Maunde

Hey guys, thanks for the heads up! I will check those out. Are there any particular parts which would be different from the US BMWs? Cheers

Hello all, I am new to the forum as well as the mighty BMW engines. I am interested in purchasing an M52 or similar in the future, and would like to know typical costs that one could expect for a rebuild. Not a full rebuild, but including the following: All seals and gaskets Pumps (water and oil) Other consumables. Has anyone done a similar rebuild and would know the costs? Appreciate the help greatly! Maunde
