I will soon start on a CSL project which (unfortunately) has unoriginal engine block and cylinder head. The block comes from an E12 535i (VIN4148067) and the cylinder head is stamped M90 on the end. The cylinder head has however many cracks, which I think is caused by improper head gasket. I have managed to acquire a used M30 cylinder head (casted in 1978), without camshaft. I will pull the camshaft from the M90 cylinder head and use it in the M30 head. I do not know the origin of the camshaft, but it is possible that it is the original CSL shaft (Cam nose has two half-moon shaped prongs) All in all this will probably be a standard M30 3.5l engine with d-jetronic.
Does anyone have experience with this setup? Can D-Jetronic system to feed the engine with enough fuel? Upsides or downsides?
