Engine block reinforcement conversion kit suitable for BMW E36 (M50 M52 S50 engine)
High-revving inline six-cylinder engines like the M50, M52 or S50 quickly reach their design limits in motorsport use:
The inherent vibrations of the engine block between the main bearing blocks and the outer wall can lead to material fatigue, bearing problems, or, in extreme cases, block damage as engine speed and power increase.
This is exactly where the Wehran Motorsport block reinforcement set comes in.
Function & Benefit:
The set stiffens the engine block specifically in the critical area between the bearing blocks and the outer block wall .
The additional structural connection significantly reduces vibrations and massively increases the overall stiffness of the block – a crucial advantage in:
-
high-revving engines
-
Performance improvements
-
Track tools & racing vehicles
-
Long-distance and drift use
Thought through down to the last detail:
The entire set was meticulously assembled and structurally coordinated by us to ensure that all components can be mounted cleanly and without stress, despite any offsets.
Scope of delivery:
-
1× Block reinforcement plate
-
8 screws including washers for the original oil scraper
