Need despirately one piston/connecting rod N54

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
None

Item Interest
Please anyone: 135i engine is down -- sent a piston and rod to CP as samples for forged set to be made (in January), NOW need 1 piston and 1 rod to put stock engine back together. Help please.

ALSO, will like to buy a N54 recycled engine; complete, or SHORT BLOCK, for single-turbo race engine build. Have everything on hand to build, just need forged pistons to complete! Can't BELIEVE an aftermarket piston maker hasn't created these pistons yet! Any word on this??

By the way, VAC Motosports is going the extra mile for us. Great service. Thanks Steve!

Thank you so very much! Larry

That would be classic - just act totally innocent. Especially if they can't find the rest of the rod or piston. WTF!
