Tom, tell us more about your engine rebuild. What size pistons did you use to get up to 3.7l. Did you use oversize BBMW pistons or aftermarkets, and if so, whose?
Thanks!

Just got through building a 3.7L big six using a MM Sport head. The damn thing is a thing of beauty!! 1st class workmanship and parts all around. Just got the engine fired up last week and she sounds great. We are using bavarian Autospot headers and B&B TriFlow exhaust. She sounds like a bear!! If you have the chink, spring for the MM head. You will not be disappointed.

Good Luck,
Tom in PA


I was thinking of just doing the Metric Mechanic head, stahl headers and maybe a B&B triflo exhust. Got the 3.73 diff short shift kit and big brakes. Is that a good choice?
Does anyone have a MM sport head?
thx all help is appreciated
