Yeah Brad forget the e to i conversion ;-)

I too would like to know more about New Heart's more interesting conversion...particularly what the estimates would be in terms of cost. How much for an e34 engine (preferably 535i), labor and parts costs for the installation (unless one is saavy enough to DIY it), etc. My rough guess is that it would have to run several thousand dollars...YIKES! I'm sure Rob Anderson could help ball park this job nicely for us...

Cheers,

Forget replacing just the head, cam, pistons, etc. Just replace the whole damn engine in one fell swoop!

If you've seen 130 in that thing, then it's definitely got a WHOLE lot more than 120 horsepower. Anyone Rob Anderson care to recite the numbers for an e34 525i to me? Pretty please?

Oh, by the way, Heart. I'm putting you in the gallery. The link (when the page is up) to your car is below.

Peace,
