Shit dude. Sorry for your loss.:(

I'd either buy a refurbed/used engine or add a few thousand and build it. For the labor not worth just replacing parts.

As far as parts lists, I'd refer you to basic stuff mentioned most recently in threads like the BMS 2.0 135i build

Talk to Tony at VTT. He's had the most experience with this. He makes a product to help, I wouldn't say it's a fix but honestly if you're keeping the motor you need at LEAST any bandaid you can get.

VTT has a new crank hub solution other than the crank capture coming out soon. Like V8bait said, talk to Tony
Curious what it costs and if it's as effective as the maxpsi solution.

I heard combining the ppm billet hub with the capture works.

I'm curious if it addresses both crank hub spin and crank bolt backing out. I'm sure Tony will make a good solution. NOBODY puts things to the test like Tony.

We have a full fix. No drilling the crank. Labor is same as installing a stock hub. Cost is about half of other options. Look for a post in the next couple weeks announcing availability and all details. We’ll have options for N54 and N55/S55.
Interesting. Do you have any pictures or explanation of how you guys are doing this without drilling the crank? Do you have a time line on its release. ready to order.
