15 minutes of 'after-hours' BMW S54 engine assembly

Описание: This is a personal 'out-of-hours' project on an S54 engine I recently purchased for my Z3M Coupe project.

We're part way through setting up a new area in our new 4th building and thought it would serve as a good temporary location for a quick engine refresh on my S54.

We're time-lapsing this work for an upcoming video series and decided to also grab 15 minutes of random chat on a Friday evening after work.

Appreciate it's not that interesting, but an unplanned, unscripted, assembly of an S54 between 2 mates obsessed with engineering, (mostly chatting rubbish), as a 'Friday Night Project' adds a lighter side to our channel.

This engine had 142k miles and seemed to be running fine in the donor car when we drove it back to Bristol, so just a light refresh will suffice for now but I'm planning on a big upgrade later in the year on another build.

I'm putting the following items into my S54 refresh:

Polished Crankshaft
Cylinder Head Overhaul
Chemically Washed Sump & Rocker Cover
ACL Race Main Bearings
ACL Race Conrod Bearings
BMW Oil Pump
BMW Oil Filter Housing
BMW Water Pump
BMW Motorsport Thermostat
Elring Head Set
Elring Block Set
BMW Timing Chain
BMW Oil Pump Chain & Sprocket
BMW Chain Tensioners
‪@getvanosparts‬ Beisan Vanos everything
BMW Vanos Hydraulic Solenoid & Coil Pack
BMW S62 Vanos Diaphragm Springs
BMW Rocker Cover Gasket
BMW Spark Plugs
BMW & INA Idler Pulleys
BMW Oil Filter Kit
BMW Constant Pressure Valve
All new fixings
Plus so many more small items

Thanks for watching.
