	BMW World - BMW M88 Engine
		The M88 was based on the M49 engine used in the BMW 3.0CSi.
		The M88 produced 277 bhp in the version built from 1978 to 1981 for the BMW M1.
		From 1985 to 1987 the M88 was used in the 5 Series M5 Sedan and from 1983 to 1989 in the 6 Series M635CSi Coupe.

	BMW M Registry - FAQ E23 745i SA (M88)
		The most likely explanation is that the M88 powerplant, developed originally for the M1 sports car, is a fairly noisy unit that develops its peak power at a relatively high engine speed.
		The M88 engine in the South African 745i is an evolution of the 24-valve inline-six developed for the mid-engine M1 supercar and is identical to the unit used in the non-catalyst versions of the E24 M635CSi and E28 M5.
		It is worth noting that the M88 engines fitted to early examples of the South African 745i are simply inscribed "BMW" on their cam cover in place of the later "M Power" designation shared with the E24 M635CSi and E28 M5.

	HiPower BMW
		BMW is today recognized as one of the leading manufacturers of high-performance cars of all sizes.
		The BMW M60 V8 was released in 1992.
		During the early and late 1980s, BMW didn’t offer any real high-performance 4 cylinders as they were focusing on meting new emission regulations and reducing the fuel consumption of their engines.

	BMW M1
		It was the first BMW supercar capable of rivaling the strongest Ferrari and Porsche.
		Its M88 inline-6 engine was BMW's first 4-valve per cylinder engine for road use, and one of the firsts of the world.
		Codenamed M88, it was built by the Motorsport department based on the M30 of 635CSi.

	BMW E26 M1
		BMW then began a most complicated assembly procedure with M1's being worked on in various stages at Marchesi in Modena, Ital Design in Turin and Baur in Stuttgart.
		The M1’s engine was derived from BMW's Typ M88 unit as used in the immortal Group 2 CSL Batmobile's throughout much of the seventies.
		Although retaining some traditional BMW styling cues, the E26 was a complete departure from any of the marque’s previous road cars, prominent features at the front seeing large retractable headlights (used for the first time on a BMW) integrated with trademark kidney grilles.

	BMW M5 - Wikicars
		Whilst BMW Motorsport did not built any special versions of the E28 M5, the German tuner Hartge produced the Hartge H35S-24, a 330 PS (325 hp/243 kW) version of the E28 M5.
		Unlike its predecessors, the E39 M5 was not handbuilt at the BMW M GmbH factory; it was produced on the same assembly line as the normal E39 5-series at the Dingolfing factory in Germany.
		The BMW M5, along with the new M6, were designed to use the new SMG III electrohydraulic manual transmission.

	BMW M Registry - FAQ E28 M5
		BMW Motorsport built four different versions of the E28 M5, three at the M works in Garching, Germany (European-spec in left-hand drive and right-hand drive, plus the North American version) and a South African-spec model for the home market assembled from Complete Knock Down (CKD) kits.
		The M88 and S38 engines are evolutions of the 24-valve inline-six developed for the mid-engine M1 supercar.
		Because the intention of BMW Motorsport was to hide the performance capabilities of the M5 within a standard-looking 5 Series body, there are few external items that differentiate the European-spec E28 M5 from any other E28 sedan.

	BMW World - BMW S38 Engine (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)

		The production of the BMW E28 5 Series ceased at the end of 1987, succeeded by the BMW E34.

	cars - BMW 3 Series
		The BMW 3 Series is a line of compact sedans manufactured by BMW since May of 1975.
		Consequently, BMW decided to leave well enough alone: while larger BMWs followed a more avant-garde Bangle style, the latest E90 is not a radical departure from the current model.
		BMW 325i convertible is a PDF-based personal website containing detailed information about the E30 3 Series.

		BMW M6 The first M6s were badged M635CSi, or just with an M. Started in the 1980s, as a sport version to the 628Ci, 633CSi, and 635, the M6 brought back the heritage of its earlier coupes (CS and CSL).
		This one was found at the BMW CCA Oktoberfest 1998.
		BMW has rumored about bringing back the 6er, but I dont think it would be the same, not without this design.

		BMW did not want to be accused of being insensitive to the environment and decided against the introduction of the E28 ///M5 at the important Geneva car show.
		BMW North America realized that very well and from 1987, the Motorsport versions of the E24 and E28 became available in the US, but their specifications where changed to meet the demands of the American market.
		Originally, BMW did not plan a Motorsport version of the E39 as it felt that the E39 540I and the E36 ///M3 4 door would fulfill the demands of the E34 ///M5 owners.

		Originally, BMW commissioned Lamborghini to work out the details of the car's chassis, assemble prototypes and manufacture the vehicles, but Lamborghini's financial position meant that BMW reassumed control over the project in April 1978, after seven prototypes were built.

	M5/M6Eng
		BMW initially offered the Evolution M3's with a valve cover and plenum painted white with Motorsport stripes.
		These were manufactured by various vendors for BMW, all with one recurring flaw, they turned yellow with heat and age.
		They were also sold separately for a short time by BMW but at a high price, since you were purchasing both a new valve cover and plenum PLUS the special paint job.

		This was back in the days before BMW "M," when the soft-of-buttock need not apply; M cars were serious cars for serious drivers.
		The company is legendary for taking BMWs to the next level of performance, and in the 1980s personally imported Hartge cars represented a huge opportunity for American driving enthusiasts.

	Changing Primary Timing Chain Tensioner For a 95 E36 M3
		The VANOS is often thought to be the culprit (and many dealers and mechanics will insist that this is the problem) but in most cases with the above symptoms it's the primary timing chain tensioner going bad.
		BMW obviously realized this and sometime ago changed the design of the tensioner.
		For all early BMW Motorsport engines, BMW used the same tensioner.
