Engine and Drivetrain
M10 engine with 9.5:1 E12 pistons, upgraded cam and 38/38 Weber. Head and engine overhauled approximately 5,000 miles ago. Machine work included: bored and honed to first overbore, balance complete engine, crankshaft journal weld, crankshaft grind, recondition rod and align, flywheel resurface, crank shaft polished and mic, balance rods. Mechanic installed new main and rod bearings, block and head seals, oil sender, timing chain, wrist pin bushings and oil pump chain. Work on head: Grind valves and seats, new valve guides installed. E12 9.5:1 first overbore pistons. Motor mounts replaced w/Ireland Engineering mounts in 2009. Pertronix ignition. Blue Bosch coil. Unsure the brand camshaft but previous owner said it was a 298°. Non-professional opinion: it sounds more aggressive than a 292° and less than a 304°. Has a four-into-one header only; no exhaust system is currently installed.
71°Celsius thermostat. Stock fan.
Drive train is a four-speed manual transmission currently, purchase includes a Getrag 5 speed transmission and upgrade kit (see photo for contents). A machine shop should be able to shorten and re-install the current driveshaft. 4 speed transmission lightly grinds into second gear if shifted quickly. 320i limited slip differential 3.91:1 installed with redrilled flanges installed. 3.64:1 differential included.
