Dear Kam,
I am wondering what the symptoms were on your 2.5 that had a bent valve. Did it have a distincitve sound? I am trying to diagnose my 2.5 and had considered a possible bent valve.
How would I go about boring out my 2.5i engine into a 2.7i engine?

My car is in the garage at the moment as one iof the valves is bent. I plan on getting a performance cam and chip, but would also like to bore it out to 2.7 to hit the 200
+bhp mark. What would I need to take into consideration, and what other BMW's could I source parts from? I live in the UK.

Thanks.
