E46 320 D has the crank. One on driver been broken now. If you got the crank could do a stroked affair I'm sure and maybe leave it at that.

Deep pockets needed for sure! Something to salivate over anyway!

Did you get far in looking into it? Wonder does it cost much to get it bored out?
This was about 3-4 years ago I was looking, I'm sure the crank is probably easier to get now for sure, but your looking at serious head work, m44 con rods, s50 pistons, cam re-profiling at least! Some I think even used s14 pistons....As mentioned, dry sumping and solid lifters etc. If you weren't in a rush you could acquire the bits over time to suit a budget but serious wedge in the short term! I read a lot of articles and how-to's around the time so might be mixing up some of the piston/con rod mating!!
