🇳🇿 says hi, I've owned Milliy 4 days & 700 kms... what a machine!
Long-shot but does anyone have any further info/history on the B10 V8 cast block please? Such a special step you don't hear about too often, talk about an expensive way to increase performance.
Does BMW manufacture at the plant? and supply to Alpina to work their magic with new crankshaft, more aggressive camshafts, hand-fettled ports, lighter higher-compression Mahle pistons and reprogrammed the Motronic system.
Or does it come from a separate supplier to BMW?
Does anyone know if these blocks are only used in e39 B10's?
Look forward to any & all response.
