VAC Motorsports E46 M3 Club Racer - Silver Bullet II
Just wanted to share some pics of our silver E46 M3 - Silver Bullet II. I will try to get some pics of the undercarriage...it's pretty special. This car is powered by a 460hp VAC built, dry sump equipped 3.2.
ps. The original Silver Bullet was an E36 with similar engine config

Hi Mike - can you pm me some details on what was done with the motor? I've got an '03 M3 track car that hasn't had much internal work done. So far I've added new rod bearings, standalone ecu conversion with epic software, ss stepped headers v2 and a csl type intake. At this point, I'm not happy with the hp it's making and so I've been considering doing more with the motor. Question is what could I reuse and what would have to be done to get this kind of output?
Thanks, Barry

I want those cams! I'd imagine they are something like 304/298? Sounds mean... like it will eat you if you get close.
I'm going to try and ask this in proper detail the best I can. That short hose (black) that is sitting right above the coil packs, that would normally (I think) hook to the intake manifold. What is that designed to do? Since it is set up differently than the stock engine? Also, are there any air/oil separators available for this car? To keep oil out of the intake? Not sure if it's the same issues, but coming from a turbo car (STI), there are air/oil sep available to prevent oil from getting into the intake manifold. ------------------------------------------ I'd also like to know more about your cooling system. looks like the rad is lowered bit and maybe pushed forward for room? If it works for a race car, something simliar would be good for a street car (if feasible). Good cooling is... good cooling Last edited by Tarmac_E46_M3; 12-09-2011 at 09:25 AM.. |
