Hello,
I was really interested in your thread about the Brabus 2.6 Engine, however I found it a bit late.
I myself am thinking about stroking my m102 engine from 2.3 to 2.5 by increasing the stroke of the motor, like Brabus did.
m102.982 has a bore of 95.5mm and a stroke of 80.25mm. I figured if I used a crank off a m102.990 - bore 95.5 and stroke 87.2mm, that would give me a swept volume of 2.5l and an increase in CR from 9.0 to 9.8.
I even started a thread in the w124 forum, but I only got replies to turbo-charge or switch to EFI.
I am also interested in the Brabus header you have on pictures - can you measure the length of the primaries, as I have something in mind?
Thank you in advance for your time and have a nice day
BR,
Stanislav
