Cool. Let us know what your final decision is and how the engine turns out. I guess that will be a while? I assumed that you have a second car (doesn't everyone with an M5 have a second car?!?), which is why I suggested you rebuild your own.

Nope, don't have a second car--this one's my daily driver.

How's you tranny doing? I'd guess you'll need a rebuild soon after you install a MM engine!

Actually, I've already had the tranny rebuilt by the person who does Korman's, so it's a freakin' tank now.

A 924 kicked ass? That's funny! ;-) (Just kidding)

Hehe, it was the '79 model--had the Porsche off-H 5 speed racing gearbox, and once we'd bored and stroked the motor it put out about 220 hp.
