Hey everyone, first post up on TB so beat me up as you feel suited. I have an B230FT from an 88 740 which has just over 200k miles on it which I plan to swap into my 93 240 and I'd like to do a top end refresh. For the top end here's my idea:
Aside from that I'm planning on running a 3" down pipe, manual boost controller, stock turbo for now, and am considering the wasted spark upgrade. I drive the car about 250 miles a week commuting right now and I think a mild build like this would allow it to remain a daily. Any thoughts or input is appreciated!
- Mahle .012 over bore pistons (anyone with any feedback on these?)
- Pull the heads and have a valve job done
- New valves, valve springs, seats, guides
- IPD turbo cam kit
- New gaskets
- Posible crank bearings
- New front and rear seals
