Oh man I'm excited for more videos on this!
Very informative, thanks! Do you know if rumors are true about a M20B27 eta block being wider at the bottom and taking stroker crankshafts easier?

Not sure about that. However the 2.5 block fits it just fine with 5min of grinding

Thank you for sharing such great information. I wish to know if you are using an M20B25 block. If not, would such a build work on a B25 block? Thank you

Great video. It’s cool that a BMW crank from a car decades newer will work in an M20. @jrcfj

Thanks for the info, do you have a link to those rods? The only part I’m stuck on is finding good quality 135 mm rods for my 2.9l m20 (m52 crank and 85 mm pistons).

Do you have the details as to what you used? More info on this build please! Primarily wondering why you didn't use m54 rods?

I’m planning to make 600+ hp/tq reliably so I bought forged rods. They are custom CP pistons and 135mm Hbeam rods
At 1:17 in the lower left-hand corner I believe there’s a crack in that ring I to am looking for more information on this

Are you talking about the intermediate shaft bearing ? They have a split in them by design
I’ve heard about m57 crank for m20. Opinion?❤

hello, lovely and informative video. I am currently building an m20 with m54b25 crank shaft, pistons & rods, would I experience any similar issues to what you've just mentioned?

I don’t think you will have any issues with the m54b25 parts. The stroke is less than the b30 and it all should fit well. I’m excited you are using all m54 parts that is what I wanted to do originally

Not gonna happen. B25 pistons are high crowned. And b23 head is flat with no inward pool for 2.5 piston crown. The only way is to CNC machine pistons down flat.

@@XPbIM3 100 % correct sir. After lots of research I found out it is possible with altering pistons. Since the dropped valve damaged one piston it may be the only option. Thanks

@@XPbIM3 Thanks for the compression number my brain was melting trying to calculate the expected comp. I really thought the smaller combustion chamber would have bumped comp higher.
