- Everything you need to know to assemble your cams and vanos of your m50 and m52 engine.
I have done my best to simplify the process and give you as much detail as possible.
Follow this video all the way to the end, and you will also have an engine dialed in and ready to be installed in your car.
Torque setting for bolts.
Cam cap bolts 20nm
Cam bolts all at 15nm

Just got finished binge watching this 4 part. Thank you for this. I was entertained the whole time. You make it look so easy! Please continue making videos, I'm learning so much!
Thank you so much for the feedback. I hope i can keep you entertained while learning something new
Great video!
One tip for everyone ripping their hair out, when putting in the cam trays with the lifters in place.
Just flip your engine 180° upsidedown, so you can put the trays easily on without the lifters actually falling out of it.
Good tip!
Hey you tell me everything I need to know thank you for this video my friend
No problem 👍
So can a m50b20 block and a m52b28 head work together 🤷♂️🤟
Love this video series, inspired me to build my own m50b30 stroker. Just a question, do you know if i could use any of my head gear from an m52tu head and put it into an m50 head? Things like lifters etc? Also the timing sprokets?
Thank you my friend. M52tu has some minor differences but I believe most of the stuff should be interchangeable. The exhaust cam will not be able to be used as it will have the vanos on it.
Thank you. How is the build going?
Hi with the m54b30 intake cam besides modification to the front .would it work with m50b25tu cam boxers n does the timing block still work when timing the m54 cam
Yes cam carriers are the same minus being larger on the M50. Used the same timing kit with the m54. From what I have been told you can advance the cam if running e85 but I have left mine in the standard position. Planning on alot of punishment
What cams are you using for this build, i just got my m52 and want to copy this recipe. thank you in advance.
M52 exhaust cam and m54 3.0 intake cam. Just need to do a small modification to the m54 cam
M54 Intake cam with M52 Exhaust cam. The simplest and easiest way to get the power.
@VasKatsaras Any modifications needed to fit the m52 cam? What's the power output with this setup with the stroker?
Is there any reason to use 2.8 head over 2.5 head because you ported the 2.8 head to match 2.5? i’m just curious because I have the m50b25tu and my car is obd1.
Mainly because finding a good M50 Head is getting almost impossible here in Australia. Plus i get a lot of M52 engines quite cheap as they where abundantly available here.
Hello!
Where I can find the specs for tight all the bolts for this engine?
I go through it in a lot of detail in the series as i was never able to find the information
