How much power and torque does the BMW S62B50 have?

From the factory the BMW S62B50 makes 294 kW (400 HP) and 500 Nm of torque. It is a 4.9 liter (4,941 cc) v8, DOHC, 32 valve petrol engine with no turbo (naturally aspirated).

Without a turbo, the power builds smoothly with the revs. A clean air intake, healthy ignition and the correct fuel are key to getting the full figure.

A used engine reaches its factory numbers when it is fitted with the matching engine computer and software, and serviced with the right oil and filters. If the engine computer from your car is a different version, a specialist may need to code it.
