Let's take out the ENGINE!

FrankiE90 · 04-30-2011, 07:02 AM

oh and it came out alright.
Ivan and Long not afraid of taking the task
in finding new life for this motor.

Long story short, LTBMW's project
bimmer went track'n in Vegas during MFEST.
The E36 M3 did some great runs Friday and
Saturday before it took a dump.

After the event it was towed to Barstow,
then drove back to the shop.

Later found out that the intake valve fail'd.
And no better than JMS Racing to help this S50
find new life. On the road to recovery and another
reason to tinker with this 95 legend.

As Long says "back to the drawing boards."
I'll be following this project bimmer for phase 2.

check out the picts.

sjones0812 · 04-30-2011, 07:56 AM

What caused the valve to hit the piston?

Alan l. · 04-30-2011, 07:59 AM

Did someone misshift? I did that once on my old car and all of my intake valves looked like that.
