dalmarshall Posted January 14, 2015 Report Posted January 14, 2015 Jeez Louise that's a big un! What is that engine. I didn't think bmw did petrol turbo'd engines
luckyjim Posted January 14, 2015 Report Posted January 14, 2015 hope its solid mounted or the turbo will punch through the inner wing when its booted.
deltamal Posted January 15, 2015 Report Posted January 15, 2015 Excellent! it's a project I would have liked to do, BMW engines are awesome as standard so tweaked up a bit..... better in a Mk3 Cortina though!

skeeter Posted January 15, 2015 Report Posted January 15, 2015 BMW do a whole range of turbo petrols, the M range for instance are now petrol turbo charged. S
The Transplanter Posted January 15, 2015 Report Posted January 15, 2015 Its good to see something different Looks like an early (non vanos) M50 petrol engine thats been rotated a few degrees in the bay. Its quite common for those to be turbo'd (Its not a diesel as they dont use wastegates, they use VNT) Any more details or links on it Jo ?? Always had the idea of fitting an S50 engine (M3) into a Capri 1
NeilT Posted January 15, 2015 Report Posted January 15, 2015 love it, these guy's are crazy they have a twin turbo pinto, a crazy power 2.9 v6 turbo and a few of these bmw conversions now very very cool
deltamal Posted January 17, 2015 Report Posted January 17, 2015 Project 2016 is in planning for you then Malcy!.. or could be a small block Ford V8............
