BMW S65

S65B40 in the M3 Coupé (E92)

The S65 is a high-speed , naturally aspirated V8 engine with overhead camshafts and 32 valves from BMW . It shares the basic architecture and the aluminum construction with the S85 V10 from the M5 / M6 . It was introduced in the E92 M3 as the successor to the S54 straight-six . The engine won the "3 to 4 liter displacement" category at the International Engine of the Year Awards five years in a row. With a maximum speed of 8,400 revolutions per minute, the S65 is the highest-revving series engine that BMW has ever built.

development

The S65B40 was developed to meet the increasingly stringent Euro V and CARB emission standards . Because the development potential of the predecessor S54 was exhausted, its successor, the S65, was developed.

It shares the same bore of 92 mm and the same stroke of 75.2 mm with the S85 , as does the double VANOS and the compression ratio of 12.0: 1. In contrast to the S85 , the VANOS system in the S65 is driven by the oil pressure of the engine, which makes a separate high-pressure hydraulic system , as installed in the S85 , superfluous.

The engine block , which consists of a eutectic aluminum - silicon alloy, comes from BMW's Formula 1 foundry in Landshut , while the hydroaluminum cylinder heads are produced in Austria. Other notable features are iron-clad aluminum pistons, knock control with ion current , steel-magnesium connecting rods, a crankshaft forged from steel ( crossplane design) and a single throttle valve intake system in which one cylinder bank is always controlled by an electromechanical actuator.

For the S65, a newer version MS S65 was developed from the engine control unit of the S85 . It can perform more than 200 million calculations per second compared to 25 million with the predecessor BMW S54 .

The resulting engine weighs 202 kg, 15 kg less than its predecessor with only 6 cylinders.
