Aerosam has already done this v8 bmw thing and there are quite a few piccies of it on his build up.. Its a bit of a beast and lighter than the six pot
478 lbs / 217 kg
From the BMW brochure for the new M3:
"Weighing a mere 202 kg (445 lb), the V8 power unit featured in the new BMW M3 is a genuine lightweight. Even compared with the six-cylinder power unit in the former model, engine weight is down by some 15 kg or 33 lb."
445 + 33 = 478.
