What block is a 524td............Is it a m20
Thanks,
Kevin

The 524td was called the m21, I think. It was a different iteration of the m20. Check out this site for info on an e34 525i (w/ m20 engine) that used a 524td intake manifold for his turbo conversion. He ended up having to make a lot of modifications to the manifold for it to bolt up to the engine.

That's all I know about it.

BTW, you wouldn't happen to know if it's safe to stroke a 2.7l m20 to, say, 3.0 liters, do you?

TIA,
