Upgrade kit for additional chain tensioner suitable for BMW E36 (M50 engine)
Due to their design, M50 engines with increased power or RPM may exhibit increased timing chain slack . This slack negatively impacts smooth running, valve timing stability, and, in the long term, the durability of the valve train.
The Wehran Motorsport Upgrade Chain Tensioner Kit allows the installation of an additional chain tensioner to specifically reduce chain play and significantly stabilize the chain guidance.
The additional chain tensioner provides better, permanent guidance and pre-tensioning of the timing chain.
The result:
-
smoother chain operation
-
Increased stability during sporty driving and motorsport use
A worthwhile upgrade, especially for:
-
high-performance engines
-
high-revving setups
-
Track tools & drift vehicles
-
preventive engine overhauls
Well-thought-out assembly concept
To ensure that the retrofit is precise and reproducible , the kit includes a perfectly fitting drilling template .
This allows the required drill holes to be marked precisely and implemented cleanly – even outside of a CNC environment.
