Connecting Rods |
| The connecting rods provide a direct link between the pistons and the crankshaft. Whenever you are doing a rebuild, it is important to have your rods weighted and balanced to make sure there is an equal rotating mass on each journal of the crankshaft. Anytime you have bent or damaged rods, replace them. Here at Pelican, we offer OEM BMW connecting rods for your classic BMW E30. |

Pistons |
| Rebuilding your engine is a process that should be done right. For the most reliable of rebuilds, replace your pistons with new ones. If you are reusing your old pistons, make sure that you have them checked at a good machine shop to make sure that the ring grooves are not worn. Also, the cylinder bores should always be honed prior to installation of new pistons. Failure to do so may result in a new set of rings not seating properly. |
