| BMW 745Li - Cylinder Head & Valvetrain - Page 1 |
| The cylinder head and valvetrain is a magnificent assembly that combines precisely engineered mechanisms with intricately designed aerodynamics. If, for some reason, a valve spring breaks, the head gasket fails, or a timing belt has snapped, major damage would be inflicted onto the entire motor. When rebuilding the top end assembly of a motor, not only do you need brand new quality parts to get the job done right, but also a reputable machinist to do the work that you can't in your own garage. Be sure to be patient when working on the valvetrain and take all the time you need to build it to your desired specifications. |
