Recommended Posts

This head has been to the machine shop for a valve job; the seats are in great condition and it comes with several new valves.  Does not include any rockers, rocker shafts or cam shaft, but does include valves, springs, caps, valve retainers etc.  1975 Casting for those trying to match production year.  See photos for clarity.  $300.

The cam journals are stock size (1.3 & 1.6 mm).  I do not know if the head was pressure tested - it went to the machine shop before I bought it.  The guides are original (not replaced), but spec out at 8mm.  

 

And I stand corrected: the intake valves are indeed oversized (tii size) at 46mm.

Looks like cylinders 1 and 2 are welded?

3&4 show weld on the exhaust side.

A radiator shop is a good place to take a leak.

 

I have no idea what I'm doing but I know I'm really good at it.

Peterman & jimk--here are some photos of #3 & 4 combustion chambers, zoomed in on the exhaust side looking at the valve seat and also the other direction from the cooling jacket side.  I labeled the head with a sharpie so you can tell which image is for which cylinder.

    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
