e36 Hartge identification

[samo455 7]

hay i just scored a e36 325 coupe

engine says hartge 2.8 and it has full hartge exhaust rear badge momo millennium witch all hartge in the uk seam to have

the car is nz new

has all this stuff been installed by some one here or did it come like this

are there any markings on the engine to identify if it is hartge or if it is even a 2.8

could just be m50 with hartage engine cover i gess

but studying bmw forums in the uk some say thay used m50b25 to buld the hartge 2.8 any way but i dont see y

any one no the truth behind this

I'd say the quickest way to find out if it is a 2.8 would be to pull a spark plug and put a rod down it and measure the stroke from it. 84mm will mean 2.8

what he said ^.

also take it gavin at hi-velocity and run it on his dyno ,

my 325i did 112kw same as my 328i ,

so if its more than maybe its a hartge ,

but i would guess its just an hartge engine cover brought on ebay etc.

but remove the covers and see if there are any hartge stamps /markings on the head etc (inlet side)
