First Drive in 10 Years - Garden Find V12 BMW E31 850i Revival - Project Marseille: Part 4 (Patreon)
Content
Part 4 of project Marseille has landed and the E31 is finally running & driving!
A huge achievement to have it in this condition now after it was totally inoperable and neglected for 10 years.
The next episode on this project won't be out for a while and at the end of the video, I talk about what the plan is with this beauty. We are going big with this project and going with OEM+ theme and M70B54 build!
In short, we are going to hot rod the engine and up the power from 300 hp to around 375 hp, using M73 block, M70 heads, Schrick cams, custom exhaust and Wokke chips.
I'll go into more details in due time, but I've been thinking about this for a long time and it just makes sense to do it with this car. However, there is no way I can do such a big, long-term project in my current tiny garage, there's no space for anything and I'm going crazy as it is. I've been looking for a bigger space for a very long time to no avail, but I'm hopefully something will pop up eventually.
I've never done anything like this before where we are going to go deep into the engine build and I'm very excited about it. It should provide fun, informative and a bit different content. Let me know what you think too!
