well it looks like my cam bearings and bottom end are toast... my oil has golden glitter in it.

filter didn't fail, but I think it got gunked up or something, my oil PSI is back to normal after swapping...but its to late.

I told you that me and the other guy in the workshop are willing to do the swap for only the price of 2 plane tickets to FL, and maybe accomodation, but that's optional hahaha.

I'd tell you to ship it to Germany, but... 3000$ shipping, 3000$ the engine, then swap and homologation....
For that price i have THIS

We had this in the workshop this week... never a V6 looked so small.
The car is a SL 350.

That's pretty sweet. My friend had an old ass turbo Conquest for his first car, I think that might have been the same chassis.

sp00ke linked a clean looking 850i today, but then I laughed I said yeah but if I remember right that V12 wasn't very impressive for power. He responds later, yep looks like it only makes 300hp. Wow a lazy 25hp per cylinder? Phhhttt... Then I saw a video of this: One RABID Golf!!! Damn, 275hp+ per cylinder. :lolb

Oh without a doubt, they have some awesome styling! It was more of a laugh at the V12 making 300hp. In the same year range they had I-6's making around 220hp or more right??

They are one of the few BMW cars that I actually like.... V10 and V8 were the ones to have though. VERY rare, don't think i've ever actually seen one driving around in the flesh before.

The 850 is one of those timeless cars. Even if it is slow, I still love them. Kind of like delorians.

Well this is pretty sad. I've looked to sell the car and move to another platform....................except there isn't one!!! Domestics are just big boats, Imports....really nothing left exp suber. euro LOL. So its cheaper to rip the engine out then to move to a non-boat platform that isn't slow as shit.

WOW!
