mops 4 Report post Posted October 2, 2005 Hello. Looks like i'll have to rebuild my cylinder head out of my ticking e30 325i. I have an early motronic engine, with compression ratio 9.7, and i'd like to replace it with a later type head, which will give me 8.5:1, as i'm planning a FI project in the near future, so low compression is essential Are there any BMW dismantlers/wreckers, that stock those kind of parts ? buying it form dealer wold cost more than the car's value as well i'd be interested in individual valvetrain components - rocker, valves, etc... Is there anybody who would locally stock performance parts, such as long duration cam shafts, or do i need to import one from US ? Cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

petone 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2005 You sure brent? I thought only the 2.5 head would work with the 2.5 block and pistons? Also, I wouldn't bother with a longer duration cam if your going FI. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gus 5 Report post Posted October 3, 2005 2L heads sh*t. ports too small for 2.5 as for cam, the best seems to be the stock one for FI, judging by the turbo guys on www.e30tech.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
