jesse, do tell about this “good deal on the s50 shortblock.” :nod your right about hans dahlback. fuckin brilliant guy. my fav. is the black urquattro they built many years back. it was putting down a consistent 750+whp iirc. not to mention all the sleeper cars dahlback has crafted. > [@BENNYFIZZLE](#): > > Word. > > He’s like, an automotive god…but so incredibly level headed…most people with his knowledge are total dickheads and will not share any of said knowledge, while Adam welcomes all challengers… > > Truly a great dude! i agree with this. although we haven’t met in person, you are a real down to earth, and straightforward guy. ---

S50 bottom end 5/94 prod date, VIN ends in EH00831. Never disassembled, in great working order. You can still see the hone marks on the cyl walls. Can prob throw in an oil pan too. If you’re interested, jclark86 (at) [gmail.com](http://gmail.com) ---

> [@Boxersix](#): > > Even got some other customers up in a fuss about me working on all these cars and not fitting them in here **cough MIKE cough**!!! :haha Nah, I understand man. I am just so ready to get this meth tune done. Had the kit installed since last August (?), and I don’t want to put it off any longer. Next thing I know it’ll be winter again and I’ll have to wait till next year. Not gonna happen. I am getting the meth tune done within the next two weeks regardless. :nod [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/its-been-a-bmw-type-few-months-here-r247/237195.md?page=2)
