Bmw M49 (Engine Dyno)

No ethanol, just high octane (probably 110 or so) race fuel.  Pretty cool to see how the fuel is atomized as the slide opens up and then sucks it into the intake.  You can see why that type of induction is so efficient for racing - at wide open throttle nothing to impede the fuel/air going into  the intake .....wheras with butterfl;s for carbs or throttle bodies you have the throttle shaft and then the buttefly plate.

Yep, both M49's, the image above as well as the video.  I have seen the pic you posted but really hadn't noticed that this motor was set up to be run canted (stock position) like any standard CS/L, o2 - you can tell by the way the slide throttle manifold is angled.  Schnitzer made slide throttles for these engines as well which is what the motor on blog is using.  Thos slides were set up for the engine to be run vertically (straight up and down).  For some reason I was thinking that drive belt might be driving the injection pump.....?

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
