N54 crankshaft in N52

Joethecarguy · 11-28-2017, 11:43 PM

Just wondering whether the forged n54 crankshaft will fit in a n52. Have always wanted to make a high rpm n/a n52 engine. Also, will n54 or s54 cams fit, don't want to have to get custom cams. If I have to though I would.

it would fit (with custom pistons) but it's only like .5mm more stroke - not worth the effort really. If you had one laying around and you were already doing all custom internals, sure, why not - but I hope you're prepared to spend $10000 on an engine build...

No, you can't use N54 or S54 cams.
