HELP! We can't find a core for my Pass. Side head
As you may remember I had catastrophic engine failure in August. A rocker lever ejected through my passenger side cylinder head leaving a sizable hole in my cylinder head. http://www.xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-foru...il-ground.html The engine is pulled and heads came off last weekend. I was so excited I finally have casting numbers and can get them sent out for re manufacturing. So I can get me baby back on the road for the MN winter. The only problem is.....We can't find a core for the pass side that has the hole.... Car-part.com has several listed but all pulls are from 04-05 when I search for an 06 and the ones listed that do denote casting # are not the one I need. The shop that I'm using for the head work can't find me a core... The casting number from the passenger head is 751294311 0315346 HELP! I'm very frustrated at the thought of having to replace the whole engine just because I can't find a pass. side head so I can get mine redone. I would much rather have remaned heads with new seals than put a junk yard pull in mine thats just going to have smoke on start up because it has bad valve seals when I am so close to remedying this common issue W/ N62's while I have the darn heads off. What can you guys tell me or recommend for me in this situation? Will a head from a 04 or 05 N62 work even if it has a different casting number on it? What are the differences and nuances of the 06 4.4l N62 ? VS other N62 e53's Engine wise? My production month is May 06 and the last 7 of my VIN are LV27226 Price is an issue right now unfortunately as I'm currently engaged with the date fast approaching. Any help advice or leads are much appreciated guys. TIA -Alex

OK Guys I checked REAL OEM.
My May/06 production 4.4l N62 cylinder head has P/N of 11121556512 for cyl 1-4 11121556513 for cyl 5-8 http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...56&hg=11&fg=15 When I search back to Jan/05 it had the same part numbers listed for those heads too. http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...56&hg=11&fg=15 Does that confirm cross compatibility to you guys? Also I am going to source a complete head core with cams so I searched the valve train drill down and the intake, and exhaust cams are the same part numbers as well for an 01/05 production to my 05/06 production. http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...69&hg=11&fg=25 Should I be OK to use a core from an 05 N62 in my rebulild with the cylinder heads, and cam part numbers being all the same between the different model years? TIA
