I haven't looked at any factory windscreens close up, but I made a template of cardboard of the space between the hoops. Shaped it the way I wanted it, I...

does anyone know the dimensions (length, width, height) of a 6.0L BMW V12 engine?...
Not sure exatly but I know it is not as big as you may think. What I would really like to know is why you wanna know? ;) Thinking about putting one in a Z3?...
Why? Something wrong with the engines that came in the Z3 models? Z3īs (all but the S52 cars) are well balanced and handle great. The only reason anyone would...
I absolutely agree. Even more so as our Z3 is a '96 (four cylinder) that I feel has more balanced handling that the later six cylinder Z3s. I was just...

I donīt think so about your 4 cyl being more balanced than the 6īs... The 4 cyls are iron block and pretty heavy, the 6 cyls (all but the S52) are aluminum...

Just want to point out that your numbers for 99-02 are the 2.5 liter engine and not the 2.8 or 3.0s. The 1999 2.8 has 193 hp and weights 2910 pounds. The 2001...
