I want to build my M52B20 BMW E36 into a 2.8 stroker, what does it cost?

I want to share my personal opinion - you can't get good output from the M52 engine. Things like piston ovalization problems and oil-burning issues are something we run into a lot. My humble recommendation would be to build an S50 into an M50 block, to reach maximum power with minimum cost. Market prices would run somewhere between 200 and 300 thousand, but it will more than earn its money's worth. Proven by experience. :)
