jeffbebe 1560 Report post Posted February 9, 2015 Ha! Not for mine - would be good for Alan Ferguson's M8 replica though. I believe the M8 prototype had an S70 with ITBs. Pretty cool project though and great to put a proper engine in that Corvette! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael. 2313 Report post Posted February 9, 2015 Looks great with the ITBs. Pity he hasn't done a proper clip of the induction noise though. Be interesting to hear it at WOT under load. Interesting to note the original engine it once had was a LS5 454ci V8 producing 390 hp and 680 N·m Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neal 545 Report post Posted February 11, 2015 Been looking at efihardware.com for a smaller scale project. Reckon they'd go well on a BMW engine. Prices are aren't too bad either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeffbebe 1560 Report post Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) This is very interesting... http://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?2160655-850Ci-with-M70B54-dyno-run Few people around that know more about the E31 than Wolf Ganssauge - better known as Wokke. His V2 chipset for the M70 is stonking but this project is really cool - an M70b54: M73 5.4L block with M70 cylinder heads so he can use Schrick cams, plus a custom exhaust and he's pumping out 386bhp at the crank... 9bhp more than a stock 850csi with the 5.6L S70. This'll be a true autobahn-eater with the 4hp24 but a manual would be better suited to our roads. Something to think about for us M70 owners!
