Vanos conversions

Postby IMMORTAL on Sun Aug 29, 2010 10:29 pm

Hi all,

I live in South Africa and own a 328i convertible. It has a M52 single Vanos motor with branch and free flow.

I was just wondering if anybody has tried or succeeded in swapping the M52 single vanos head with a double vanos head(e46 for example) and what it involved?

Thanks in advance
Happy Driving
